Blonde à contre-jour (2018) Painting by Philippe Metayer

Self-taught artist, I started as many by acrylic works on canvas. I have since begun to expand my range of techniques and media. I will have a hard time denying that my favorite and almost exclusive subject is the woman. I like making monochrome canvases when the subject lends itself to it. But above all, my research focuses on light, backlighting, nighttime atmospheres and sfumatos.

Although I have not received a reward in the few exhibitions I attended, my works have always been very well received. However, I only paint what inspires me at the moment. Pleasure is essential to my artistic approach.

Which does not prevent me from working on order from time to time
