Adrien Faveau paints places he has visited at length, wishing to capture the realism and emotion of each location. Using photos and sketches made on location, he creates works in his studio with a focus on atmosphere rather than detail. Inspired by Impressionists like Monet and Caillebotte, as well as Hopper, Adrien likes to paint with fast, contemporary gestures. He uses modern tools such as squeegees, spatulas and rollers, while retaining traditional oil painting techniques. His work highlights the beauty of everyday urban scenes, often overlooked, emphasizing that beauty can be found everywhere.
