Sculptures & Fine Arts

My passion

The pleasure of touching clay and bringing an idea to fruition gives me such satisfaction that I've tackled every subject, women, men, animals, masks, with creations and reproductions ....etc.
Today, I'm passionate about portrait sculpture, and I take great interest in paying tribute to a famous or forgotten character, in representing and sharing the three-dimensional realization of a person who has passed away.

The satisfaction is great, with all these shared emotions.
Today, I work in a magnificent workshop located in the heart of downtown Lyon, "Les Ateliers Terreaux". The doors are always wide open to all visitors who venture in 2 rue Sainte Marie des Terreaux Lyon 1er.

I have made and offered portraits to those who appreciate my work, some for interiors... others for gardens...        

It takes several weeks to make a portrait to scale 1, between modelling, drying, firing, moulding and casting for bronzes.
Everything is possible, all scales, all materials (ceramic, porcelain, bronze, resin, etc.).
