Influences
The artist was influenced by Paul Klee[2] for his interest of drawing rhythms, graphics and spirituality. Matisse[3] offered a portfolio of color and collage. Riopelle and les Automatistes[4] Québécois contributed stimulated energy by their gestures. Picasso, especially Guernica, showed him that transcendence could come from painting.
