About the artist:

With a smooth and precise writing classic close he admires such as David, Vermeer, Corot, Velasquez, Solnon sends us a new image of the réalité.Il not choose the easy. The sham is oh so difficult art that requires plastic discipline, the requirement of a specific drawing, a proper light to touch the object, to give it its truth. His work is inhabited this indispensable direct observation but just as much of a poetic vision of an invention in the choice of elements that make up the fabric in the layout. He reigns in his works an intimacy born probably personal things he directed with intelligence and rigueur. All here is apparent silence and life behind. With a beautiful field of fine quality, carefully chosen palette, it captures the transparency and reflections of glass, wood grain, the brightness of copper, sensual velvet. A discreet vibration animates these evocative compositions of daily transcended by the invention, the emotion of peintre.Depuis few years, he rediscovered, restored to honor the "scalloped": a carved wood or hollow plastic according to requirement the artist, an inherited technical seventeenth century and which was lost. The illusion of human presence or objects is sometimes almost unbelievable, as the length portrait of Cadiou, grasping for truth and for which Solnon was awarded the Henri Cadiou. The cut accentuates the silhouette of the painter says a specific trait, the elegance of its color range as beautiful lighting and one begins to touch the work to ensure that it is painting. The most common objects found a tangible and fictional presence at the fois.Ses creations are fed to the sensitivity of the artist who appropriates the object to return it in its texture but imbued with his personal view. - Nicole Lamothe Exhibitions This little son of Georges Armand MASSON (Drawing Fair creator and Watercolor) born in 1943 in Paris is a self taught.
