Jean-Claude Lannes | Contemporary Artist: Artworks & Biography

Jean-Claude is from the small commune of Villesèquelande - where he now lives with his family - , and has spent most of his life surrounded by his friends and family. As a child he learned the basics of painting alongside his maternal grandfather, René Peyre, who was an artist in Montmartre during the 50s and 60s. His grandfather chose to guide the young apprentice rather than to give him a traditional artistic education and his advice will remain engraved forever in Jean-Claude's memory. At the end of adolescence Jean-Claude began his studies in the sciences and decided to put his artistic fibers to the side in order to settle down for good and begin his own household.
