Collection: Jean Claude Picot

Jean Claude Picot (French, b. 1933) is a celebrated French painter known for his radiant depictions of coastal life, gardens, and Mediterranean

landscapes. Influenced by the Fauvist masters—Vlaminck, Derain, and Matisse—Picot developed a distinctive style combining

Post-Impressionist color with expressive form and line. His joyful scenes, filled with sunlight and vibrant hues, capture the joie de vivre of the

French Riviera. Since beginning his professional career in 1956, Picot has exhibited internationally in over fifty solo shows across Europe, the

United States, and Australia. Working in oils, acrylics, watercolors, etchings, ceramics, and serigraphy, Picot continues to celebrate the enduring

traditions of French landscape painting, infusing each work with warmth, harmony, and timeless beauty.
