Born in the center of France, I spent my childhood and youth there. After completing my studies à l'Université Blaise Pascal , at the Lycée Madame De Staël, I taught seniors in High School and prepared students for the Baccalaureate exam.
in 1975, I moved to the United States and taught courses in History of the Arts in Western Civilization at the Performing Arts School. Today, I teach gifted students in the Downingtown School District.
I enjoy plein air painting to capture the first impressions of a landscape vivid colors and contrasting textures. For the last years, I have been painting on Cape Cod in Wellfleet during vacation and in the Luberon, South of France, where my uncle, a local artist, lived.
