Luc Cossier, known as Walles, was born in Poland to French parents in 1946. He studied fine art, receiving his Master’s degree from the Académie des Beaux Arts in Kraków. Walles spent much of his childhood in Poland, surrounded by the Byzantine influences of the churches and monuments. His paintings often display a micro-mosaic like quality to the surface, achieved through his use of small palette knives to form tiny squares and triangles applied in a jewel-toned palette. Walles lives and paints primarily in Paris but also paints views of London and Normandy. See less
