“ Colorful, the oil canvasses develop warm and sunny harmonies, ever flaming in summer or autumn scenes, still lifes,or jazz paintings.Also interesting because they give an other angle of view on his oil techniques, are the works on paper ( watercolors or white spirit drawings ) that complete the work of artistic creation ”.
