Self-taught artist

​

As a child, I was surrounded by the family ghosts, especially my grandfather’s,

whose paintings were hanging in the living room..

I was fascinated by the canvases and by the man who’d painted them:

I used to picture his life, through the landscapes he was painting. 

In my family everyone was assigned a role, and assignment: I was the writer.

My brother Robert was the official artist; hence I was drawing by stealth.

As an adult I finally devoted myself to this passion as I was living independently from my family, creating every now and then.

Like my grand-father Jean, I am a self-taught artist.

My art can be likened either to Outsider Art, either to Figuration Libre.

I enjoy experimenting with all sorts of materials.

Since 2014 when I retired from teaching, I sign as EFKA.
