As you have understood, at the beginning, I painted exclusively canvases, but growing up I was so bored in class that I started to draw in the margins (paradoxically, it allowed me to stay focused - especially in subjects like History I found dreadfully boring). Careful, I was a good student, but not the type to brag, I was even rather discreet (the "should participate more" type) however, I was quickly categorized as "the little class nerd" 🤓 ( with the inconveniences that go with it, but I wasn't the type to feel sorry for myself and so it flowed over me like water, I'm not hiding from you that it was sometimes very complicated to live with, and  some days were very long, children are cruel, but it didn't affect me mentally or very little).

So I adorned my notebooks and binders with small drawings throughout my school years.  (you can't imagine how much I feared the sentence: "I pick up the notebooks to grade them" when it happened, I sadly armed myself with my eraser, a real heartbreak 😢) Anyway, let's get back to the topic in hand, time flies and comes high school time! We often hear that these were the best years and I must admit that I am often nostalgic for those years. I had the chance to do my school years at the agricultural college of Thèza (no, I didn't grow potatoes, like you might think, I was in science pathway). Despite some hardliners (morons are everywhere), the atmosphere was top. Inspired by this soothing surroundings, I began to draw on a sheet small drawings, random shapes, totally abstract.
