professional artist. He is greatly influenced by the works of the
Fauvist masters like Vlaminck, Derain, and Matisse, whose exuberant
canvases drew great attention in the first decade of the 20th century
for their revolutionary use of color, texture, and abstract form. These
artists have inspired Picot for decades and you can find many similar
characteristics in his work. Picot has developed a unique style
that recalls a Post-Impressionist application of color, combined with
the expressive qualities of form and line. His compositions are often
calming, possessing his personal joie de vivre. He frequently captures
the animation, romance, and essence of the landscape as his favored
subject, although he also paints still lifes, cityscapes, markets, and
festival scenes. All of his work is imbued with the same bright and
cheerful character and is instantly identifiable. Since 1947 he
has exhibited in over fifty one-person shows throughout the world
including exhibitions in the United States, Belgium, Norway and
Australia. Picot lives part of the year in the south of France and often
draws on the Cote d’Azur – its visitors, beaches, and boat-filled
harbors. His work abounds with natural beauty and features breathtaking
panoramic views charged with the unique light of the Mediterranean.
Picot works in a Post-Impressionist manner, reducing flowers, trees,
houses, and figures to their essential forms. In the reviews of
Picot’s most recent solo shows in Paris, Bordeaux and Oslo, the critics
cited the affinities between the masters of Impressionism and early 20th
Century Fauvism with Picot’s work. Today in the 21st Century, Picot
continues the tradition of important French landscape painters. Picot
actively works in many media – oil, acrylic, watercolor, etching,
ceramic, and most recently, serigraphy and embellished serigraphy –
which beautifully capture his vibrant color and painterly technique. His
work is a favorite of collectors internationally and is represented in
prestigious collections worldwide.
