Michel Robert studied sculpture with his father. He exhibited his animal subjects, both domestic and wild, at various salons, including the Salon national des beaux-arts, the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon des artistes décorateurs. His talent for direct carving enabled him to work for Monuments Historiques as a copyist, as well as for contemporary sculptors such as Alfred Janniot, Antoniucci Volti, René Quillivic and Gabriel Coquelin. At the end of the 1990s, he decided to use the pseudonym David Mesly.
