ADELUS

Jean-Pierre Adelus was born in 1925 to a family of sailors, and spent a great deal of his childhood and adolescence in North Africa. After studying science, he then began work in a shipyard, building boats. Thereafter, he created a tanning-parlor business in Casablanca. 

He later moved back to France and settled in Brittany where he could be close to the sea. His love of the sea has caused him to cross the Atlantic Ocean several times and he enjoys to travel. His paintings have been exhibited at the Galerie Naifs et Primtifs since 1992.
