Il y avais alors cette petite florentine qui était si gracieuse. Le soir elle passait la rivière pour venir à San Frediano. J'en devins amoureux très inopinément, peut-être à cause d'un beau sourire amer. Et en somme je lui ai dit "Ne gardez pas le silence ; car je suis devant vous comme un étranger et un voyageur. Accordez-moi quelque rafraîchissement avant que je parte et que je ne sois plus."

i live in my beautiful studio with my two young daughters. When i am not painting, i do some teaching: drawing, painting and art history, in a technical highschool and as private coachings.
i still do graphic design and communication jobs, i used to do a lot of press layout but i gave up when i had the girls, and anyway it doesn't pay like it used to.i used to run a cyberartistrungallery as a personal project: http://www.cyberkunsthalle.org... i've been lazy on this lately though. artists exhibited : Nadine de Koenigswarter, Yuki Onodera, Gerda Schutte, Danielle Wallers, Pierre Estable, Pierre Filippi, Leopold Koukissa, Aki Lumi, Leonard Rachita, Bruno Richard, and myself.
There was a new show not long ago, but now it's easy for an artist to set up a page, like here on Myspace, while 10 years ago they really needed my help. So i think this project is running thru its end.slalom skateboarding: i rode a skateboard for the first time at the age of 39, as my wife was expecting our 2nd kid. i started seeing my first shrink at the same time.
Slalom was dead in Paris when i started. We restarted it back from scratch with my friends Jani, Jean-Sebastien and a few others, with the help of Riderz.net crew and forum.
Jani and i started a little parts distribution business to make the highly specialised products available. http://www.coneRacing.com. We even created products.Rookies' Playground
