He created a large mural for the main entrance of the prestigious Swiss international school , Institute du Rosey (commonly known as Le Rosey).

He paints landscapes, horses, athletes, and more, capturing a moment in time, and in the moment of the moving subject he makes us feel the moment before, and a premonition of the next moment. He expresses movement within a moment. Even when he paints a still landscape, he makes us feel the moment, and the stillness of that moment gives us a sense of mysterious sway and silence, as if we have traveled back in time from another dimension.
