Emotions and light, that’s it! what I want to share through my paintings! 

Self-taught artist, I launched into the world of painting in 2022.

No art studies but parents passionate about painting, music and photography. Lulled from a young age in this artistic universe, I have always needed to express my emotions. First at first through flamenco dance, then in parallel with my diatonic accordion which I have been practicing for over ten years (also self-taught) and today painting.

Watercolor and dry pastels are the two techniques that I prefer to work with. Watercolor for its transparency, its fragility, its light and dry pastel for its texture, its intense pigments and the fusion work that takes place with the fingertips.

As an autodidact, everything is new to me, and my curiosity continues. leads constantly to I search, understand, question and the paintings that I create are therefore the fruit of these experiments. Above all, what I seek when I paint is to create a light in the heart of a landscape, a bouquet of flowers, a scene of life... and of course transmit an emotion. I hope that those who look at my work will feel it.

Above all, I am looking to create an emotion... A landscape, flowers, a still life or a scene of life, my painting must tell a story, must arouse in the person who looks at it a desire, a memory, something of staff... I don't have any particular technique because I'm completely self-taught so I let myself be carried away by my emotion when I paint
