“Au Gré du Vent” Acrylic on Canvas, 24” x 24”
Shades of blue from sea and sky, the swift current of a river, the textured nuances of fog or snow, scenes from this land or another. The result almost always evokes a landscape and reveals my personal interpretation of it.
“Au Delà de L’être” Acrylic on Canvas, 30” x 30”
Inspired by nature, I create abstract paintings that let the viewers decide what they see.
“Profondeur” Acrylic on Canvas, 40” x 40”
My artistic process is intuitive. I apply acrylic paint in numerous coats that superimpose transparently, which usually creates tremendous depth.
“Dialogue Intérieur” Acrylic on Canvas, 24” x 24”
Each painting is an intimate incursion into my psyche, an exploration of what inhabits my soul.

I was born in Montreal and have been living in the magnificent Laurentians (Quebec) for fifteen years. Surrounded my mountains and lakes, I’m constantly inspired to interpret this natural splendour that changes with every season.
“À la Découverte d’une Terre Inconnue” Acrylic on Canvas, 48” x 30”
Growing up, I was always reaching for my crayons. I took part in my first drawing workshop in 2002.
“Le Promesse” Acrylic on Canvas, 36” x 48”
My innate curiosity drove me to take numerous classes in pastels and oil painting, but I found my true artistic path in 2012 when I attended a workshop on abstract art.
“Émergence” Acrylic on Canvas, 30” x 30”
That is when I fell in love with acrylic paint, a medium that is versatile enough to allow me to freely express my inspiration.
“Les Retrouvailles” Acrylic on Canvas, 40” x 40”
My art is a hymn to nature and to life. I share my perception of all the beauty that surrounds me, a beauty that is both powerful and fragile, and invite you to join me in this journey as an observer.
“Rêver de Toi” Acrylic on Canvas, 40” x 40”
Through your eyes, my work comes to life.

I am a wildlife artist. The animals I paint are a very realistic approach. My backgrounds are less so. I often struggle with that part of my painting. I like your colors and way you portray backgrounds. Landscapes are recognizable, yet abstract and vibrant.
