Jeanette Guichard-Bunel (French painter, 1957)


Jeannette Guichard-Bunel was born in Cherbourg. She wants to take her spectators on a dream like journey through her paintings.
She wants to give supremacy to reasoning so that the spectator can analyze and go beyond appearances.
She likes to establish an extra-verbal and extra sensorial communication with her public and erase the barriers of rationalism.
Her characters try to catch the spectator's eye and attract him to a world where time stands still and has boundless space. Through colors, the spectator can go cross the boundary between reality and dream along with some poetry.


Her figurative style, punctuated with pop art and surrealism, features characters and pets in an anachronistic universe, filled with poetry and humor. Her drawing is remarkable, her subjects overlap with true mastery, like a levitation with unreal colors.
A dream-like, unique painter, her work has attracted many French galleries in (Paris, Cannes, Pont-Aven, Honfleur, Grenoble, Bordeaux) and abroad too (Belgium and Switzerland).
