Artiste multidisciplinaire, possédant une formation universitaire en Beaux-arts, ayant participé à plusieurs expositions collectives principalement au Canada.

Quoique mon expression artistique s'exprime par des formes plutôt abstraites c'est-à-dire sans souci de représentation formelle et sans motif de référence; je cherche en utilisant la peinture un contact avec mon monde intérieur. En laissant le sujet de mes tableaux se définir et en essayant de ne pas m'interposer ou de m'imposer devant ce qui émerge.

Je peins principalement à l'encaustique, technique picturale ancienne, qui se prête merveilleusement aux formes d'expression contemporaines.

Colours have always interested me because they are the tools by which emotions and vibrations of life can be expressed. They inhabit our existence: by the mass of blue in the sky, by the green of the hills and the fields, by the grey of the mountains, by the gilded yellow of the wheat shafts...Colours accompany us. They are the witnesses of nature and the mystery of our perception.

Having experimented with ceramic sculpture, engraving, photography, various artistic mediums for some time, I am now exploring painting with this old and new medium called encaustic. This medium offers many qualities: vibrating colours, traces engraved in the wax, layers created by the accumulation of matter on the support, and the multiple textures which overlap. It is a medium which allows for spontaneity and stands the test of time. Encaustic appears easy to use but since one must use heat, it asks mastery and patience, control and letting go.
