For me, painting is the process of defining, or redefining the world around me. I am always intrigued by the complexities and changes that light casts on nature and architecture.

I was born in Belgium and have lived in California for nearly thirty years now. Growing up in a creative environment, my father, Jean-Luc Beghin, showed me many ways to express myself visually. I studied fine arts in college and went on to receive an MFA from CSULB. Ever since, I have had a great interest in figure and landscape painting - the latter having a profound influence on my ongoing series of “Urban Landscapes”, which is presented on this website.

My paintings have been collected by numerous individuals ranging from New York Times writer Michael Janofsky to United States Senator John Edwards. The site presented here shows only a selection of the work I’ve done and sold and will be updated with new paintings on an on-going basis. Feel free to contact me should you have any questions or comments regarding this website. Enjoy!
