Painting technique

All the paintings are made on canvas, with oil painting techniques. Sometimes modelling pastes or other materials are used for background textures.

Tools & materials

In the tools and materials used for painting, there are sometimes animal components, for example the glue made with rabbits skin for the canvases, bone black for black pigments, hair made brushes made with horse, hog, goat, bear, marten and other animal hairs, some insects for red pigments, etc.

• Colors I select are of high quality and free of any animal pigment.
• Canvas are chosen for their quality and their composition free of any animal material.
• Mediums I choose doesn't contain animal substances.
• Natural hair made brushes that I bought at the beginning have been replaced by new synthetic ones, so no more animal component should be involved in my paintings.

That's why my paintings could be possibly qualified as « vegan paintings ».
