“A spacious, peaceful mind is always happier, clearer, more powerful.
This is why I paint visual meditations for your mind to quieten and expand, leaving you refreshed every time you lay eyes on them.”

Welcome to my world… and thank you for visiting! I hope you enjoy the tour…

I was born in France and moved to California in 2000. I started showing my work in solo shows in 1990 and spent many years mastering watercolors.
In 2010 I started working on much larger pieces using water mixable oils, on canvas and on wood panels, it was an epiphany! The flexibility and the possibilities in size this new medium offered just enchanted me! Today I still enjoy using watercolors for miniatures and small works, while reveling in the lushness of oils on larger works.

Behind every piece, there is an intention to uplift and comfort you. I design spacious and benevolent paintings as quantum portals to harmony.
Their relaxing effect empowers and nurtures the viewer at a deep level, where serene clarity transcends circumstances.

The secret resides in crafting each painting as a visual meditation that helps quieten mind chatter and expand consciousness, giving a means to the viewers to reconnect with their innate soul-seated wellness.
Large and small, they have won the hearts of private collectors and art lovers from San Francisco Bay to Asia, Brazil​ and Europe.

Don’t take my word for it: immerse yourself in my work and experience the wonderful effect of my paintings on your own state of being.

When you purchase my work, over 4% of it goes to charities, so you can feel good about that too!

For over 7 years I owned and ran my  Blissful Gallery in Stinson Beach, prior to COVID-19. It was a great success and a joyful experience during which I learned a lot.
Though I much enjoyed the personal meetings and special time with clients, I also appreciate the freedom and flexibility my virtual gallery online gives me now.

If you have any question, wish or feedback, please take the time to connect and tell me about it!
