To do what I am, and to be what I do ... My only goal is actually doing what I am, and humbly being what I do ... It is not an easy task : we split ourselves into so many facets that sometimes it can be difficult to find the way to the real self ...
I was born in 1953 in High Volta (Burkina Faso).
I am fond of strength and movement, I paint with my heart as my hand merely holds the conductor?s baton ; music must be strong and sincere, a mixture of volumes and lights. The circle is the fundamental basis of my teaching technique: everything is circles and curves, nature did not invent the straight line, the latter simply being a human illusion (one more on the list). I painted my first oil canvass at the age of six,. Since then I signed more than 1.000 canvasses and 10.000 drawings. It is frustrating and stimulating at the same time : I have the impression of being a beginner, of a having still a lot.
