This is another fantasy transposition of Manet's 'déjeuner sur l'herbe' into a 'picnic in the jungle'. The three characters of Manet's famous painting find themselves transported from a Parisian ground to the clearing of a flamboyant Indian jungle. Indian nymphs, and wild animals of the jungle seem to enjoy the sight of Manet's three characters in conversation in the centre of the scene. This a fantasy reference to Manet and an expression of love to mysterious, incredible India. The style is spontaneous, wild, caricature like, in a composition close to Manet's work with more exotic colours.
The whole painting can be seen as a gentle caricature. I hope to amuse the viewer.

I work between the Val du Loir, Paris and India where I had been living for twenty years and from which I draw most of my inspiration. Venerable ruins, mysterious interiors, prolific jungle, shimmering colors and above all the people of India, so diverse and full of humanity.
My work comes from wandering travels throughout twenty states of India, by train, car and motorcycle. I used to make quick sketches or took photos of the scenes, events which stroke me and I transformed them into paintings when back in my studio.
Originally a business consultant, I am essentially self taught in painting but also trained by the Ateliers de la Ville de Paris. I started to show my work in India, then moved back to France. Critics see my work as non conceptual but imaginative, spontaneous and somewhat eclectic. I do draw some inspiration from Masters like Manet, Matisse, Valloton or Gauguin.
