Artistes préférés : Rembrandt, Toulouse Lautrec, Monet,…. Plus moderne : rick Berry, Graffmatt,…. Enfin tous ce qui touche a l art.
Puis voulant montrer mes travaux je suis mis a la recherché d une galerie Sur internet et depuis 2002 sur Renderosity ou j ai vu beaucoup d autres artistes.

jclP: I received the gift of drawing and paintingf rom my mother.
I studied technique for 6 years at Etterbeek & Rhok, Ixelles (Belgium) with the painter Jacques Muller. I got into oil and watercolor painting and did some group exhibitions.
During a graphic design fair in Brussels, I was put in contact with Wacom (tablet) and this is where my interest in digital art started. Painter was my first PC (~ 1996) painting software. I still use it today .
Some of my favorite artists: Rembrandt, Toulouse Lautrec, Monet,…. More modern: Rick Berry, Graffmatt,…. Really thouhg, I'm interested in everything related to art.
I eventually wanting to show my work. I looked for a gallery on the internet and discovered Renderosity in 2002. I have seen many other artists there.
And today with the experience acquired in Art, I have rediscovered myself! Sitting in front of my computer screen, I draw with millions of polygons, and get drunk on this new modern art that is digital painting.
