I used to sketch them a lot as a student, even though I had not been to India at the time. And being French, I cannot escape from the idea of philosophy and philosophers who are very much esteemed, almost revered in France. Think of Voltaire, Rousseau, Sartre.
I have imagined here a French philosopher meeting an old swami in rural India. Both are accompanied by a student or disciple. The French philosopher and his student use books and computers, the Indian sage uses nothing, his disciple holds a simple scroll.
Their dialogue is intense, respectful, intriguing. Rationality versus meditation, logic versus inspiration, technology versus naturalism. In the back of the scene, some people are doing yoga, and there is a Hindu temple and a pond. Else, some animals and trees and some jungle.
Everything seems peaceful under the moon.
This is pure fantasy inspired by ... my own imagination.

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.
