My motto: Work of a monk, patience of an angel, love of the profession!

Originally from Quebec and self-taught in my field, I left the theater more than 50 years ago. I really found my way when I started playing with clay. I learned by myself, proceeding by trial and error. I even had to invent some tools, because there is no tradition in the form I give to this fabulous material that is ceramic.

Ah! What joy this work in the workshop is like meditation, the mind only thinks in terms of shapes and colors. Time stops!

Through my jewelry, whose clay beads are made by hand, one by one, I wish to convey to you this state of simple happiness and perhaps even make time stop for a moment for you too. My signature, a bead in the shape of an apple heart which means “carpe diem”, will undoubtedly help you with this.

Let’s enjoy the present moment, the only one we truly have!
