I am 54 and I leave in Toulouse in the South of France.

I am an Aerospace Engineer and I am working in a Satellites Aerospace Company. I have a quite serious job, sometime a bit stressing … this contrasts somehow with my less serious and more fun artistic side that I have recently developed.

This is during the numerous professional travels that I bring back home photography’s from the places I go and hand drawings that I make with a black marker on a sketchbook in the plane during the air travel.

Back home starts the work on my Mac and Photoshop to create the alchemy and echo between drawings and photography’s. I just use simple features of Photoshop, which I am starting to discover. I go quickly guided by my intuition and the ‘Graffiphotos’ are born.

I try to communicate my energy and enthusiasm in my work, to deliver a cocktail of colour, imaginary, poetry and fun!

The drawing is really the core of my Art. I have no particular technique (which is probably an advantage …) and I let my roller flow on the paper along my imagination.

I made a few exhibitions where I presented my work printed on Alu Dibond , I also realised some table tops and lamp-shades.

I discovered Flickr early this year and I was enthusiastic about the huge reservoir of talented artists to whom I convey my sincere good wishes. I particularly appreciated the friendly atmosphere and the exchanges.
