Prehistory

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...

Bears column with three balloons

Bear and his two cubs

A bear trains his two cubs in acrobatic postures, just as I used to play "circus" with my cousins as a child.

Two Percherons and their little riders

€7,800.00

I have always loved Uccello’s horses. An order from a collector led me to model these two Percherons with rounded and powerful shapes. I am obviously the opposite of the representation of war or tournament scenes: each of my “destriers” is ridden by a child, for a tender and joyful encounter.

Bear with three fish

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.

A king’s feast

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.

Last winter, a friend's little girl told her school friends that an elephant was living in her garage.

Bathing

€7,200.00

Wild boar and its cubs
