Description

Michel Petiot took an interest in painting very early on, and in 1972 he joined the courses at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Beaune.
He then lets all the values ​​of the people of the South express themselves, all in bursts of color that collide and complement each other through flat areas that respond to each other,
for the greatest viewing pleasure.
His influences are from Nicolas de Staël, Cézanne and Matisse at the same time.

In 1985, the Vendôme gallery in Paris noticed his work and exhibited it permanently, thus launching his professional career.
