Jacques' personal style is a melding of old and new -merging classical training with a modern artistic vision. His medium is multi-media and his composition has a modern, abstract quality. But his Old World training in design and composition lends a classical grace.
Jacques first came to America on business in 1985. When he visited Dallas, he saw a vibrant, dynamic city he chose to make his home. In the 20 years since, he has become an institution in the Dallas design community and is known nationally.
Born in Paris in 1946 and raised in the heart of an idyllic French countryside near the Loire Valley, Jacques began painting at a early age. He completed his formal artistic training at the prestigious Ecole Nationale Superieur des Arts Decoratifs (Paris) in 1971. While there, he received the highest peer recognition in European Arts, the coveted Prix de Rome award for painting.
