I am a Swiss-French artist living near Aberdeen in Scotland. I began my career in Aix-en-Provence and Versailles, France, where I studied sculpture and drawing at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in the early Seventies.
For me, painting is a link with the outside world, connecting me with people living on other continents. When I paint I can be in touch with events that affect fellow human beings around the world. I can create order in the inner turmoil some of these events provoke and try to contribute positively by sharing and supporting inwardly in a non-material, spiritual way through my work. Invariably, traumatic world events have an influence on my painting since I never set out with a particular subject in mind but let the painting develop of its own accord. The basic human states and emotions are the same the world over and painting is my participation in them
