Bronzes Big bear and his little one €36,000.00 This bronze animal sculpture, both dynamic and rounded, is currently presented by the Platini gallery in Crans Montana. Switzerland is one of the traditional territories of the bear, and so I’m delighted to see it set up “in the city”. Outdoors, sculptures tent to take on a whole new dimension. The changing play of light brings out different angles of... View
Bronzes Big horn to horn €32,000.00 The original bronze clay was presented for the first time in the remarkable garden of the Tool Museum at WIT DIT JOLI VILLAGE. The first bronze edition is now exhibited in the park of Château De Luynes, in the company of the BIG ACROBATS. It is an animal sculpture all in a circle punctuated by the play of horns, horns that poachers will not come and cut!... Add to cart
Bronzes The secret €4,400.00 A little girl whispers in the ear of her attentive horse, head to head. The roundness of the composition plays with the verticals of the mane and tail, without forgetting the little girl's ponytail! The horse is in a stopping posture to better listen to the whispered secret. View
Bronzes Four pizzlys €11,200.00 To think outside the box, I tackled pizzlys, the fruit of an amorous encounter between Grizzly Bears and Polar Bears. “Coffee with milk...” bears. The song "Mélangez-vous" by Pierre Perret, which should be part of the school repertoire, is not far off the mark. Bears are not racist and they try to see further by perching on top of each other!

Bronzes Acrobats in the garden €29,000.00 For the exhibition "Sculptures en Liberté" and now to see in my galleries. The first bronze was produced for the "Sculptures en Liberté" exhibition organized jointly by the Val d'Oise Archaeological Museum and the Musée de l’Outil (the Tool Museum). The sculpture therefore spent the entire summer of 2020 on the lawns of the remarkable garden of the Musée... Add to cart
Bronzes Elephant in the garden €16,000.00 I took up the theme of my animal statue "elephant with a bird". The sculpture came very easily from my hands as if flowing naturally. The elephant is talking with the bird perched on its curved trunk, giving the sculpture an airy feel. A slate gray patina highlights the baby elephant's very textured skin. This bronze animal sculpture was made at the Harze... View
Bronzes Journey €3,900.00 No need for a travel agency to escape! Just dream. This horse also does not need the wings of Pegasus to fly away and show its passenger the world. This sculpture is in the line of Warm and Winter Travel. The patina goes from warm brown to red ocher in subtle shades reinforcing the softness of the subject. View
Bronzes Nice and warm! €4,200.00 I wanted to express the little girl’s tenderness for her horse. She takes care of him, covers him, “envelopes” him to better preserve him. An opportunity for me to play with the patina, ranging from brown ocher to rich red ocher close to the appearance of the original clay. Creation 2019 for Lille Art’up View
Bronzes Giraffe and her doll €5,900.00 During the Jean -Joseph Carriès exhibition at the Petit Palais, I was very touched by a terracotta “L'Infante” representing a little girl clutching her puppet to the point of breaking it, a fitting expression of the innocently destructive side from childhood. The idea of the theme of the little girl and her toy came back to me one evening and I modeled... View
Bronzes Very shy €2,200.00 The staging of a young, contemplative rhino, intimidated by three young giraffes. Tobacco patina, brass support with black/brown patina. First bronze at the Ghent Art Fair. View
Bronzes Encounter €7,900.00 It’s a fairly old piece that I haven’t shown much. However, it is very emotional. Each on their planet, how to meet despite obstacles? Yet the horses' muzzles almost touch, stretched towards each other. It is the animal in us, which dares before us. View
Bronzes Column of dogs €32,000.00 This column of dogs could have been several meters high if I had wanted to represent all dog breeds! I was content to model mine and those that I regularly come across in my village. Astonished, they wonder what possessed the sculptor to put them in such a situation. In real life, they hunt, guard men and livestock, run on dog tracks, or even console with... Add to cart
Bronzes Couple on their knees €1,600.00 Here is the last available copy of this sculpture. I then worked a lot on the rhino/giraffe couple in a humorous way. I am very tall in the same way as the giraffe and, when I was younger, I was often subjected to the mocking remarks of men. On the other hand, in my sculptures, the rhinoceroses are small but admiring and envious of their slender... View
Bronzes The Giantess or Gulliver €4,800.00 Lilliputian rhinoceros climbing Gulliver. I added the title "Gullivert in homage to Anne Sylvestre and her beautiful eponymous song in which I recognize myself. View
Bronzes Girafe enceinte €19,000.00 As a child, I was already much bigger than the other children and “giraffe” was my nickname in the school playground. In fact, this resemblance pleased me. This peaceful animal has a lanky grace, airy and wild and with large soft eyes. It is one of the rare animals which dates back to prehistoric times and one with which we can identify emotionally....

The roundness of the... Add to cart
Bronzes Giraffe with jewels €18,000.00 This young giraffe woman with a proud bearing has adorned herself with necklaces and bracelets to come to meet us, one might think. The rings encircling her neck represent for me the social pressure that she transcends with her elegance.Lady Georgiana Cavendish beautifully painted by Gainsborough said that men had left women only their toilets as a means...

The Studio Embarcation to Kythira Every new exhibition is an adventure. For the catalogue of the Musée de la Côte d’Opale, Christopher, the graphic designer, wanted the photographs taken on the beach in order to illustrate the title of the exhibition Bêtes à Musée, Sculptures in the Open Air. The photographic technique scared me and recreating an atmosphere around my sculptures was a real... View

Museum acquisitions The octopus / my neighbour From one octopus to another The octopus had always haunted her. Among the many animal documentaries to be found on the web there are some that describe this animal as one of the most intelligent of marine life. In the human imagination, it is a very disturbing animal. Moreover she had sketched and then sculpted her into a somewhat bigoted woman, as if... View
Bronzes Giraffe and her greyhound €4,100.00 Curved sculpture. I took over from a theme used in fashion! But there's no haute couture dress, but a very fine harmony between a recurring character in my imagination and my whippet dog named Edha. Tawny patina View
