Born in Montreal in 1956, I spent much of my childhood moving from place to place. During those years, I spent a lot of time drawing and trying my hand at painting.

Between 1987 and 1989, I acquired a diploma in interior design at Ateliers Imagine. In 1997, in my early 40s, my need to create reasserted itself. Charcoal and pastel drawing classes followed and from there I discovered my passion for painting.

Since 1998, working with Yvon Lemieux, painting has become my privileged form of expression, whether I am doing studio or plein air painting, working alone, in small groups or at art shows.

I have been a member of the Société Artistique de Ste-Foy and the Association Artistique de Charlesbourg for several years and was part of “Artistes en Route” in Château-Richer for three years.

In the early summer of 2003, in association with seven other painters I opened a studio, l’Atelier des Dix, on Sault-au-Matelot Street in historic Old Québec City, where I worked and showed my work for a year.

In 2004, I began teaching oil painting to adults.
