I've always been very hands-on, a DIY enthusiast, a jack-of-all-trades. I've always been fascinated by eggs, their shape, their material, their colors. A little water and warmth, and new life appears...

When I was little, at Easter, my mother would boil chicken eggs and have me decorate and paint them.

And then I forgot about school, work, time passed...

In my life, I've had the opportunity to raise chickens, ducks, geese, and therefore to have many eggs at my disposal... and also many unhatched eggs... and memories resurfaced, memories of the possibility of using these eggs in other ways...

The idea took root, a long, slow learning curve from scratch, images Gleaned from the internet, numerous attempts, and a lot of breaking too, first with goose eggs, which were easier to find and thinner, and then gradually moved on to ostrich eggs, which were larger, had a beautiful surface to work with, were beautiful materials, and had a beautiful color.

And as for ostrich egg carving, my passion is above all sculpture, sculpting this shape, this material.

And photos of me and my work.

I hope this will be of interest to you. I'm not an expert, just an amateur who loves eggs and egg work and who continues to learn every day and marvel at the work of others, which is so much more beautiful than my own.

I hope I can help you promote and discover egg carving in France. But people have forgotten, there isn't a large audience. I nevertheless suggest doing everything I can to help you discover it.
