Drawn to a painting? I'm here to listen…
Every contemporary figurative painting I create is born from a gaze — one that is both lucid and sensitive. Figurative art, for me, is not about imitation but resonance: between what is seen and what is remembered, between presence and silence.
Here, you’ll find original, hand-painted works available for direct purchase — no intermediary, just an honest dialogue between artist and collector.
These contemporary figurative paintings evoke inhabited landscapes, vivid atmospheres, and postures at the edge of an assumed romanticism. Each canvas tells a story, each trace of pigment carries a pulse.
To acquire a figurative painting is to bring into your space a living work of art by a French contemporary artist. It is a choice for the poetic, the human, and the timeless.
