Atelier F. Peillon

Born in February the 22^nd of 1970 in Marseille, this young artist, whose parents have passed on their taste for the Mediterranean culture and Provence, in particular, to him, became passionate about painting through his contact with the Provencal Painters of the 20^th century, with Antoine SERRA in particular, who was a friend of his parents and who he has known since childhood. His career is unusual : after studying the violin at the Aix en Provence music academy, he starts literature studies at the University of the same city, with a preference for history, philosophy and ancient languages. His emotions reach us through the light and the power of the colours which emanate from his paintings. People, still life, and very personal compositions with a preference for Provencal landscapes originate from an uncommon force of concentration, from a fertile imagination and emotional sensations that are liberated on the canvas; his art is therefore unique and cannot be classified in any movement.
