Artist Bio

“Fanch”,born in 1949 (as he signs his work, a Breton nickname for Francois)
is noted for delightful scenes of his native Brittany and locales from around
the world executed in a colorful ‘primitive’ or naïve style. While a student at
the Ecole Superieure des Sciences Commerciales in Paris in 1968, Fanch began to
paint and soon abandoned commercial design in favor of full-time studies in
painting and fine art.

Fanch’s talent and achievement in painting were quickly recognized by critics
abroad, and his work was accepted by the two major European exhibitions: the
prestigious “Salons des Artistes Francaises” and the “ Salon des Peintres temoins
de leur temps.” Fanch became involved with printmaking in 1973 when he learned the
difficult technique of lithography in Paris, and later serigraphy, which became his
preferred choice for the creation of original prints.

Fanch creates imaginary scenes that run the gamut from exotic locations throughout
the world, to intimate interiors. His interior scenes will often feature hanging
paintings of the artists he most admires—a way for him to pay homage to their influences
on his own art. His landscapes have a romantic mood and beckon the viewer to enter them.
Fanch will often create combinations of locations that cannot exist in reality, like a
view of the Taj Mahal or the Pyramids of Egypt from an elegant private balcony.
His works feature a remarkable sense of detail and color subtlety. Most often they are
absent of figures within the composition, but a human presence is felt by the remnants
of the people who occupy the space, a pair of eyeglasses can often be spotted somewhere
in a Fanch interior.
