While working as a secretary at the National Assembly, he began to exhibit his paintings from 1895, under the name ofIwill, at the Salon and at the Société nationale des beaux-arts.
ofwhich he was one of the founders.
During his career, he won numerous medals at the various world exhibitions.When Iwill decided to devote himself entirely to painting, it was to pay tribute to nature. He devoted his entire life to landscapes, traveling tirelessly from Venice to Normandy but also the Pas-de-Calais and Flanders, the surroundings of Paris or even Brittany.
Iwill 's paintings are filled with softness. These subjects are often treated with the same colors that he explodes on the canvas in subtle in subtle cameos.
Our work is built in variations of green, white and brown.
And successive planes and large blue skies.
