Note: Jean Kevorkian, a true Parisian, was born in the "City Of Light" in 1933 and has always loved his native Paris while preferring as inspiration for his impressionist works the timeless beauty of provincial France. Fascinated by drawing from childhood onward, he painted and drew at every possible opportunity, developing his extraordinary natural talent, a true gift which did not require formal training. Jean concentrates his endeavours on interpreting, as did the master impressionists preceding him, the glories of nature; summer, winter, spring and fall, glowing hills and valleys, sparkling streams with distant villages, sun-drenched beaches and endless changing skies. His results are quite irresistible. Kevorkian's paintings are exhibited and sold through numerous prestigious galleries in Europe and the US, including Poulsen Galleries Inc (California) where an example of this size (38 x 51 inches) would have a price ticket of US$15,500.
