JI am a painter, and I have had the desire to transmit my know-how to paint, my know-how to feel well with painting, in particular to the young.
How wonderful to share my passion !
Isn't it wonderful to let the "subject" be discovered throughout drawing, with perspectives, details, shadows, curves ? In places as famous as Clos Luce (the last place where Leonardo da Vinci lived), the châteaux of Blois, Amboise, Selles sur Cher, Nitray ? The Pagode de Chanteloup or the Tour du Beffroi in Amboise ? But also in firms, departments of culture or of youth, in high schools ?
How many wonders in each intervention or course ?In the eyes of hospitalized children ? Then, with various painting techniques, to guide the paintbrush of these young people with, as an award, THEIR painting, done, shown, and always of a marvellous creativity.
I think I have taught to these young people how to look, to understand that between shapes and colors there is a harmonious rythm.
But I have also learned a lot from them
