About Me

I'm a muralist and a painter. I was born and raised on a farm, and I still want to be a farmer for the rest of my life. I'm very passionate about arts of course, but also about a myriad of subjects. Too many passions and ideas to take care of, some of them get neglected and don't grow. I spend the most time as possible inside of my head, cleaning the space so that new ideas can move in and feel comfortable to stay. When I am worried, it becomes extremely hard to think. Creating, I find, helps a lot to relieve the tension imposed by this oppressive and rigid society that I have often troubles fitting in. I speak english as a second language, hopefully this text makes some kind of sense!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Friendly and respectful, I am looking for places where I would feel comfortable enough to paint, and for curious like minded people.

Interests

I paint with acrylics, draw architecture, design, illustrate, play guitar and compose music. All my life revolves around arts, or learning about various subjects. I love facts. Other than that, I like science-fiction, politics, history and geography. Everyday is dedicated to learning. I also like learning new languages. Fluent in english and french, intermediate in spanish, I know some Japanese and am currently learning Norwegian.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once worked for a Theater troupe for 5 months, painting 45 foot wide murals on the walls of the show room as theater decor. Two scaffolding high, it was extenuating but an amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

My goal is to someday be teaching Fine Arts.
