Painter of landscapes and still lifes. His line is scratchy. His still lifes, like his landscapes, are made of a detail, which has become a subject, which has pushed back everything that could compete, and this void is the place of light. The landscape is reduced to a reef between land and sea, the still life to a glass and a few grapes. He sometimes tries non-figuration*, but the irregular balls are there to compete with the milky spaces. He is also the author of small formats, cuttlefish like those of Nicolas de Staël*.
