Have you found other artists on the Internet like yourself?

I fear, no.

 

Is there anything about the way you produce your work that you believe to be unique or unusual?

I believe my uniqueness consists in the particular mix of painting and letters in my works. In my paintings, words remain absolute and keep their sense, their are not altered by painting, they take corpse in it and are brought to incandescence (white-hot) by the colours.

 

What style of art really makes you angry?

I would not say angry, but sad, everything which is done without concentration, just puted for the sake of pretiness, "à la manière de.." and painted because art is traditionnally painting and because flowers, cats, birds, boats, etc... are good subjects. Oh my goodness, all that "wallpaper painting" which fits so well to the sofa and the curtains...

Do you ever expect to get rich/richer out of art?

I get richer everyday (inner richness), but also, some people see my works on CD-Rom or on the Net and make me some commercial proposition to which I response when I'm pleased by the proposition.

Was art your first love or do you have another passion?

Art was, is and will be my first love. Everything what I do is in some way connected to my art, and I have the concern to make an "oeuvre" in my life and to let it after my death. Something - it has not to be big or spectacular- which has a beginning and an end, a form and a colour. The sum of the works of my art in my life must have a coherence which will be the signature of my personality.

 

Who do you feel has influenced art most this century?

Art became abstract in the 20th century, a phenomenon which was totally unexpected. You will not find any prophets who predicted that one time, in the 20th century, art will loose the depiction and become purely abstract.
Abstract painters like Picasso, Malevich, Kandinsky, fell in the figurative art like a hair in the soup. They were and are still scorned by the public. So they simultaneously influenced art and were scorned in the same century. That many artist don't feel strong enough to follow this way, you can understand why. Perhaps courage will bring us forward.

What would you like to be better at, and why?

Commercially speaking, I'm not a killer. I think I should develop this aspect, but continue to dream to an ideal Kahnweiler, which would be my agent and sell my works allaround the world (50-50%, I have no time to do the business by my own, I'm just a creator).
