Painter of compositions with characters, landscapes, urban landscapes, seascapes, pastellist, post-impressionist.
He was a student of A de Richemont, Luc-Olivier Merson, but it is from his second master Emile Dameron that he gets his taste for anecdotal landscapes that he animates peasant crowds, fishermen and boats, rocky coasts and processions, landscapes, seascapes and scenes of Breton life, it is the whole repertoire of folk Brittany that nourishes his work endowed with a well-assured technique which is the faithful mirror of the painter's fervor for Breton daily life.
