Painting Pénélope va se baigner by Gallardo Serge | Painting Figurative Portrait Wood Oil

A lifelong draughtsman, Serge was accompanied and initiated by his Catalan uncle, a painter and draughtsman. His sojourns in Barcelona lulled him into an artistic environment that encouraged him to make a living from his passion. After graduating from the Beaux-Arts, he began his professional life designing for textile workshops in Lyon. Accidentally", he says, he opted for a career as an art director in advertising. From then on, he devoted himself entirely to painting and drawing, exhibiting in France and especially in Corsica, his native land.
