Pascal Milcendeau was born in 1962 on the Vendée coast.
In the 70s, he discovered, thanks to his family, three important things; the brush, in artisanal form, for construction, travel (at that time, Spain and Italy in 2CV, it was adventure ...), and the first camera! magic, this plastic box!
Then, no plastic art studies, it was not done here, just the drawing option of the Bac, but the chance to see many summer exhibitions on the coast (Toffoli, Dauce, Henri Simon ... ): Friends of the Côte de Lumière.
Suddenly, the camera took over during the “serious” professional years.
Then the drawing came back to "show" the images on "people", their attitude, their scenes of life.
In the 90s, he started after a trip to Cuba; music and colors have never left him.
Self-taught, he searched, tested, tried, drawn portraits, attitudes, then places of life.
A first exhibition in the Warehouse of "La Droguerie Montoise" of Saint Jean de Monts took place in March 2011.
But it is a trip to Rio that will be the real trigger, the gain in self-confidence, the choice to create full-time. Pascal became a professional painter in 2018 and went on to various exhibitions (France, Belgium).
Visible on the Net and chosen by quality Online Galleries, he becomes a member of the Taylor Foundation in April 2021.
2022 finally announces the opening of a Workshop / Gallery.
