After the horizontal stripes running on the canvas, his work concentrated on the verticality. Some of his paintings remind musical scales, appearing as short vertical stripes following a staircase form, without loosing his personal touch: his superposition of colours playing with the transparency. In the heart of his oeuvre developed itself a fragile balance between rigour and fantasy, shade and light. Even if all these contraries meet, the whole of it delivers a deep calm, nothing is here to irritate the eye.

Born in 1952 in France
