I was born in Morocco and educated in France. In 1980, I resigned as a French professor to devote myself to art. This brought me to America, where I devoted 37 years to creation and teaching, supplemented by European sojourns. Although initially schooled in Realism, my vision has matured alongside the lines of Impressionism, Expressionism, and, currently, Abstraction. I believe that style is only a tool to express the "momentness" of personal creativity. The artist also paints live, on location, at special musical and sporting events. His presence has been requested by prestigious institutions such as Georgetown University, The Kennedy Center, The Aspen Jazz Festival, The National Women's Museum, and the Skin's Game. In addition, Marcel gives motivational presentations for noteworthy organizations such as TIAA-CREF.
