"Bonpointisme" is my brand.
Because I was born in an unmade bed in a secular school in the country of Jaurès, I chose to make myself during my life and without outside help at the start, the good points of quality that was granted to me only in dribs and drabs when I was a child, the shoemaker being, by definition, always the worst shod.
For more than half a -century, I stroll so stubbornly in a singular pictorial journey within the diversity that the world offers me: nudes, landscapes, genre scenes, portraits, punchy events, I confess to never stop I am surprised at both the abundance and the realism of my production.
