La rencontre de celui qui allait me donner des ailes,me conseiller,quand je vivais de l' incertitude, me pousser à me surpasser, a avancer, mais surtout a rester moi-même.

Jean Viens grand peintre Québécois, il tenait une galerie a deux pas de mon appartement sur la rue Jean-Talon.En échange d' un espace de travail a ses côté , de ses multiples conseils et de sa simple compagnie , je posais pour se propre production personnelle de très grand tableaux qu' il vendait toujours d' avance a des collectionneurs qui ne voyaient rien avant d' acheter ! On lui achetait tout ce qu' il produisait...

C ' est avec ses conseils que j' ai amadoué la couleur, il a sue me la faire découvrir sous toutes ses formes.C ' est aussi lui qui m' a poussé à faire mes premier solo d' expos . Il me donnait la confiance que j' avais besoin , la tape sur l' épaule qui te dit , oui tu es sur la bonne voie vas y ....

Avant même l' ouverture de ma première expos, plus de 6 tableaux étaient vendus, ce qui couvrait amplement les frais que j' avais....Je ne le remercierai jamais assez de sa grande générosité et d' avoir crue en moi , il m' a littéralement donné des ailes!

The meeting of that man was going to give me wings , to advise myself , when i live uncertainly , to push me to exceed , has to advance , but especially has to remain myself .

Jean Viens a great Quebec painter , he held a gallery , at to steps from my apartment on Jean-talon steet. In exchange of a workspace at it's multiple councils has and, of his simple company. I posed for his own personal production. On very large painting ,which it was always sold to collector, which bought everything that he produced , even before they saw it !!!

It is with is councils that i appropriate to my painting the color, he knew how to bring me to discover it, in all his forms. It is also him which pushed me to make my first solo exhibition. He gave me the confidence which i need and give me the slap on the shoulder which says to you , you are on the good way!

Before even the opening of my first expos, more than 6 paintings were sold, which covered the expenses amply that i had . I will never thank him enough for his great generosity and to have believed in me, it gave's me litterally wings.....
