stilllife

Whether it is a portrait or a still life, one cannot help but notice the exceptional realism that characterises the work of this self-made man. Rather than using the French term "nature-morte", he prefers the Anglo-Saxon term still life to describe his paintings and rightly so, for they appear to be suspended in time.

On richly worked backgrounds, fruit, vegetables and flowers contain in harmonious simplicity all the vibrant colours of the Provençal markets.

In other painting, we discover the nostalgia of a time gone by in everyday objects, abandoned in the far recess of some attic, that he brings back to life with a great concern for details" not to forget their subtle beauty".

It is always with the same meticulous precision that he offers us this warm realism which makes him a painter both classic and modern of great diversity.
