Jean-Humbert Savoldelli

Jean-Humbert Savoldelli, a contemporary French painter, has dedicated over two decades to the world of art. His artistic journey commenced with a focus on Hyper-realism and Trompe-l'oeil, two styles renowned for their precision and meticulous attention to detail.

In his quest for artistic mastery, Jean-Humbert undertook specialized training in decorative painting, which provided him with the essential foundations of his craft. The School of Trompe l'Oeil became a pivotal point in his artistic education, imparting not only discipline but also a technical expertise that would prove invaluable in his creative endeavors.

Over time, however, the strictures of these techniques began to feel confining, stifling his creative impulses and limiting his artistic choices. The desire to break free from these constraints prompted a profound transformation in his approach to painting on canvas. In 2013, Jean-Humbert embarked on a radical shift, leaving behind oil paints and brushes in favor of acrylics, palette knives, and the liberating realm of abstract expressionism.

This transformative shift sparked a surge of creativity that had long been suppressed. Rather than presenting every detail to the viewer, Jean-Humbert now offers a canvas as a gateway to daydreaming. His works are infused with vibrant color harmonies, intricate perspectives, and a play between verticals and horizontals that command space without overwhelming it.

Notably, he introduced a novel element into the composition of some of his works: sand. By artfully combining sand with adhesive and using it sparingly, he achieves a distinctive interplay of texture and contrast. This innovative addition breathes life and character into his pieces.

Throughout his artistic evolution, Jean-Humbert Savoldelli maintains a distinct avoidance of spheres and circles within his compositions. He believes that these geometric shapes, while significant in their own right, disrupt the refinement he seeks and challenge the harmony and elegance he aspires to imbue in his paintings.
