Bronzes Together €5,800.00 Last winter, a friend's little girl told her school friends that an elephant was living in her garage. It would soon accompany her to school when the weather cooperated, as elephants are very sensitive to the cold. I brought her story to life. It's a piece full of movement, with the child holding her companion's trunk to take it for a walk. Slate- gray... View
Bronzes Elephant boat €10,500.00 Here is the bronze taken from the original clay created for the exhibition “BETES A MUSEE”. A crowd of elephants facing the sea on a fragile boat.

Bronzes 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... View

Bronzes 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!

Bronzes 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.
