Born on July 20, 1959 in Ville Dégelis,Temiscouata County, a great place to observe both aquatic and terrestrial fauna.
I was not intended for a career as a painter. It was while attending a collective animal art exhibition in Québec that I was deeply impressed by this type of art. Sometime later, while discussing animal art at a party with my best friend, I suddenly realized (a strong intuition) that if I admired animal artists so much, it was because I wanted to be like them. So, I made the decision that evening to start my journey in animal art. So, I started by learning to draw realistically.
