Born in Tokyo into a French artistic family, Michel Testard has lived a life rich in travel and cultural immersion in Asia, Europe and Africa. His art vividly captures a large range of themes from realistic landscapes, urban or rural scenes, portraits and interiors. Michel also ventures into fantasy with his dreamlike "Room with a View" series from Goa, Kipling inspired jungles.
His work, influenced by Masters like Matisse, Gauguin and Amrita Sher-Gill, is full of
imagination, vibrant colors and spontaneity. Michel’s originality lies in his blend of East and West, reality and fantasy, creating a body of work that reflects his dedication to cultural exploration and the beauty of seeing the world through a wandering, reflective lens.
Michel Testard: "This large painting, three panels of 150X50 cm, making it a triptych screen of 150X150 cm. It is a sort of large end work version of a series of paintings I have made on the theme of the 'Indian Jungle' - from small watercolors to medium size acrylics up to this one and another one even larger.
This is pure fantasy work, the dream of an Indian Jungle, with nymphs and wild animals in conversation in a deep forest in the middle of strange trees and vibrant flowers. In the back is a deep and dark lake reflecting a full moon. Inspired by India, Kipling's jungle book and le Douanier Rousseau. The screen is not too large and is easy to move
around in a drawing room or else."
