Iwas born in a family of artists. I have always been infinitely linked with horses and drawing. As a child I vigorously and passionately rode horses and drew. Everyday after school my first pony Rica and I used to ride through Brittany’s countryside: solar and solitary escapes through the fields along the seaside. Rica was my first and favorite’s sketch model. After many years dedicated to eventing, dressage and horse shows training in Ireland and Brittany I finally gave my brushes and pens more attention. I felt I had found that harmony again between the two. My head was filled with ideas as painting became essential: I met with Michel CORBEL, a renowned Breton painter who taught me some technics and encourage me to find my own style. Since then I have been painting and drawing so much. I am inspired to paint the equestrian world and to draw snapshots of slender female characters. Wether I hold reins or brushes in my hands, freedom is what leads me on.
