. 100 views of Mont-Blanc, an ambitious challenge :
Lionel WIBO enjoys painting Mont-Blanc whose rugged terrain inspires and also overawes. He set himself an ambitious challenge of producing 100 large paintings, showing Mont-Blanc from all sides at 4,000 meters. He has risen to the challenge, and has so far completed 51 paintings.
Lionel WIBO (aka WIBO) also sets out to paint other scenes from the life and regularly tests himself in the difficult art of portrait painting, work often done as a special commission.
