Bear with a bouquet of fish

€3,300.00

Bears have a custom during mating season: offering bouquets of freshwater fish to their beloveds. They choose them lively and fresh, and while we humans prefer the scent of roses, the female bears adore the aroma of these favorite prey, which they will devour with relish. My lovestruck bear, a little shy and a little awkward, clutches his bouquet to his...

Bronzes

A baby elephant of our own

€4,200.00

Three children, a boy, a girl, and a baby elephant play together. A joyful sculpture, full of tension, the result of a commission that I thoroughly enjoyed creating. Slate gray patina

Great Bear in Kamchatka or Flying Fish

€7,800.00

For the latest version of the Kamchatka trilogy, I imagined a bear delighted by his miraculous catch, whose fish fly away like birds—a poetic image. He watches them peacefully and smiling. No matter, he has enough left to feed his offspring! For me, the bear symbolizes protection and the fish symbolize life. The warm brown patina beautifully highlights...

Small hold on

€2,800.00

I created this Small hold on format at the request of a collector. This dimension suits it well and invites us to be optimistic !

Prehistory

€2,950.00

I exaggerated the proportions of VENUS DE LAUSSEL A LA CORNE a little to tell a story of aesthetic bears. The artist of the time is no longer there to contest this appropriation! 25,000 years ago, let our imagination run wild, bears discovered art in a cave in the Dordogne and the feminine beauty of that time. No wonder myths and legends from all over the...

Little bears with a ballloon

€2,900.00

A new version of learning born from an order. The balloon joyfully punctuates the whole. A warm brown patina highlighted by the red of the balloon.

Bears column with three balloons

€13,500.00

These three balancing bears complicated their act by juggling balloons. They are very focused because as in life they depend on each other not to fall the red of the balloons contrasts with a rich brown patina. I asked my young intern, Jackob, to write a few lines on this sculpture. Here they are : In front of these three bears, we feel like we are part...

Autumn version 2

A mother (or father) shelters her or(his) little ones from the autumn chill. I've taken up this theme with a touch of tenderness and optimism. I'm going to make a bronze out of this beautiful ochre sandstone.

The visit

€3,500.00

This sculpture is a revisitation of the universal bear/woman myth : At the back, a little girl hibernates with her bear companion. At the front, the girls observe a second bear, whom they are about to welcome as an equal guest. Everyone can make the rest of the story their own. The visit is a work of art with everal readings. During my trip to Tahiti, I...

Bear with three fish

€2,900.00

Well placed on its hind legs, this bear cub looking towards the sky thanks mother nature for having allowed him to do such good fishing. If this lasts, salmon would be on the verge of extinction!! It is a sculpture that highlights an expression of gratitude and hope. The slightly shimmering warm brown patina, brings out the green of the fish.

Bronzes

A king’s feast

€2,850.00

The bear cub is very happy to have made such a good catch, the fish a little less so, but that's life! We all depend on the food chain. So here's a small-format sculpture on the "bear and fish" theme, which I always take up with great pleasure. The warm brown patina of the bear contrasts with the green hue of the fish, obtained with ferric nitrate.

Games

€3,000.00

Variation of the bear and the cub I started from the theme of learning to create this very designed bronze. Its rounded shapes invite caressing! The protagonists look into each other's eyes in a mirror effect, the little one saying to himself “when I grow up”, and the big one” when I was little”, in a never ending game of generations. Brown patina with...

Balancing on the ice floe

€7,200.00

I returned to the theme of the polar bear with his little one to this time finalize this acrobatic “parent-child” relationship in bronze. The teddy bear humorously punctuates this sculpture in a very pure way. I don't know if Paul Emile Victor would have liked my work but, in any case, I thought of him when modeling this piece. A nod to Apoutsiak who...

Drum Shaman Bear

€5,800.00

I discovered at the flea market a very beautiful old photo of a Central Asian shaman wearing a bear skin, the animal's head covering his skull. I also remember a scene from a western by the Coen brothers “TRUE GRIT” in which we see a healer on horseback covered in bear skin emerge from a dark forest, a rather exceptional scene. These representations made...

Tickles

€2,500.00

What parent has not caressed their baby's belly, accompanying this gesture by affectionate facial expressions ? The glances they exchanged are then full of confidence. So, what could be closer to us than this bear playing with their cub? Small round and soft bronze with a warm brown patina

Bronzes

On the trunk

€9,200.00

This large sculpture joins the “Elephant and little girl” series in which they exchange glances. It is a very readable piece and imposes itself by a circle composition. The slate gray patina enhances the texture of the animal's skin.

Two bears entwined

€1,400.00

I started from the impression left on me by a photo of two embracing white bear cubs warming themselves in an excavation made in the snow. I made two brown lovers exchanging glances!

The dog school

€8,800.00

The little girl tells wolf stories to her very attentive dog (perhaps the wolf and the dog of LA FONTAINE). This sculpture is inspired by the recurring theme of portraits of children and their pets that started in the 18th century. Perhaps this is why the work is more detailed and realistic than usual. The sculpture is also exhibited at the Millet Museum...

The nurses

€7,900.00

Little girls dream of taking care of animals, why not young hippopotamuses ? The curves of this mother are perfect for the kids to play together in complete safety. The matriarch is watching ! Sculpture all in roundness and softness. Silver nitrate patina "Animals remember. It's a very old story, maybe a myth or maybe not, when the earth was a garden...

The lovers

€3,700.00

The image of these lovers comes to my mind frequently. I have done several studies of it in different formats, including this one. A couple of bears who love each other sitting on a bench or a rock, may be a vague childhood memory of lovers of Peynet….

Malanka

€6,800.00

Malanka is a traditional Ukrainian folk holiday.Both parents are the pillars around which children revolve. I used a warm, brown patina with lighter backgrounds. When modeling this sculpture, I thought of the children under the bombs, wishing them a better future.

A Little Wonder

€3,500.00

A resumption of the theme "First child" for this sculpture which I created on the birth of Iris, my latest little grand-daughter. I applied myself to expressing what it feels like to be in front of a new-born baby, a mixture of worry for their future life in a changing world, and ofwonder.

Big Quickly

I don’t know where this bear is going so quickly……Perhaps he has just learned of the arrival of the salmon in the Kamchatka Rivers!

Dressage

€16,000.00

Large, very graphic sculpture made at the Chapon art foundry. The little rider on the sidesaddle on the highest perched horse is confident. The eyes of the horses meet. Perhaps they wonder about their ability to jointly maintain the balance ? “Because Sophie’s companions are rarely alone and because their ability to establish harmonious and playful...

Bear in Kamchatka

A revisited version of FISHING IN KAMCHATKA, this sculpture tells an additional story. KAMCHATKA is the ARCADIA of bears, as the salmon resource is inexhaustible there. A fisch escapes : no big deal, the fisherman looks at the fugitive with amusement. He returns home with a determined step to feed his family, like the bear MARTIN of the fairy tales. A nod...

Stay with me

€3,300.00

I have often taken up this theme of the little girl pulling the lion's tail, undoubtedly to ward off the fear that, as a child, I felt at the Vincennes zoo when hearing the roar of the lions! The beast has transformed into an accomplice, defeated by the innocence of the little girl. No, he won't make her his meal!

Harmony in the night

€2,900.00

Little girl who sings with her wolf in the moonlight in an intense mutual agreement. I created it thinking of the deep forests of the Morvan.

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!

Whilst leafing through a book of photographs donated by my daughter Claire, I came across a Keystone Agency photo taken from behind of a little girl in a swimsuit, with a towel around her neck, going for a swim with a baby hippo.

Wolf and Little Girl or The Dream

€4,200.00

The Natural History Museum of Lille asked me to create two sculptures for the LIAISONS VITALES exhibition in 2020. On the theme of "the wild child" this little girl in perfect harmony with the wolf was then born, forming a pendant to Mowgli, Romulus and Remus. She falls asleep confidently, in osmosis, lulled by the song of her wolf mother. “Nature is not...

€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
