Artist
and wildlife painter Francois Knopf. Strange paintings.
Description
of my painting:
Artist and wildlife painter François Knopf exposes his strange
paintings: different kinds of animals, often of big size, moving in
an unadapted world. Animals painted in a realistic way but atmospher
lightly surreal or in all cases strange.
The bison at breakfast and bisons on a training way, the
hippopotamus looking for the river, the elephant on the bank of a
lake or in a field covered with snow, the bear on the railway or
lying in front of a shop, the pig in the sand box, the cat on the
butterfly, the horse and the chess game or the horse in the bedroom,
the red-deer in a painting studio, the goose in front of the justice
court, the frigate birds on the hot water bottle, the game of the
goose, the ballon of the jackdaw, the egyptian plover, the brace of
partridges, the ruff, the grouse, the hen and the bobbin, the
reddish frog, etc.
I was born in 1939 in Lausanne (Switzerland) where I did work as
an accountant during numerous years. Actualy with my dutch wife we
are living in a lonely house, on the edge of a wild forest, in Ollon
(Switzerland). We have two children.
I start to paint around 18 year old. Up today I have done 29
personal exhibitions of my paintings. A striking event in my
painter’s life: an amateur bought all the 41 paintings of one of my
exhibitions. And this just before the varnishing day!.
