About me (bio):
I am an artist living and working in France. I learned the techniques of the 19th century Atelier and now I try to share some of my knowledge with the rest of the world, because I believe that beauty still has an important role to play in artistic creation. I mainly do drawing and oil painting, and my goal is always to provide techniques and explanations that can be useful to everyone, from beginners to more advanced artists.
