L'Odeur du Vent - huile sur toile - 60x90cm

Born in Geneva, Switzerland, I worked as a professional pilot for various Swiss and South African airlines until 1988.
In 1988, I quit the cockpit and dedicated myself to painting. Oil on canvas has become my tool. I live and work in St-Oyens, Vaud, Switzerland.
I like to figure strange, unusual, poetic situations including these four elements : Nature, human beings, animals and objects. All elements are figured in a realistic manner, but in an unreal collection.


South Africa, where I lived for many years, remains in my mind and my work reflects, with no doubt, this particular atmosphere.
