PAINT IN YOUR PENCIL

Felix d’Eon - Man Picnic - Colored Pencil

Soliciting the effect of paint from a pencil is quite a rare talent. Felix d’Eon coaxes the classic masters via male form from this simple medium. The effect renders the desire within the viewer to join in. Risqué imagines the literary work “As You Like It” being read aloud with Shakespeare’s gay innuendo implied. The heat of the day begs clothes be shed and cool water be sought and perhaps even some delicious mischief pursued. Seems to Risqué, the readers gaze is far more fetched by other than Shakespeare’s pros.

Felix d’Eon - Man Picnic

Felix d’Eon was born in Guadalajara, Mexico to a Mexican father and a French mother…and you know how Risqué loves anything French. The San Francisco based artist portrays the male art form in a style considered timeless and impressionistic. His works reflect his daily life with friends and lovers as Felix attempts to blend his life and existence into his art.

Risqué delights in what must be the menu at this man picnic especially with the hints of the firmness and angle of the wood in this warm and enticing work.

“Life is a (picnic) and most of the son’s of bitches are starving to death.”

    This artist is truly amazing. He reminds me of Edouard Manet. As soon as I saw this piece, I was reminded of Manet’s Dejeuner Sur L’Herbe. The hetero version of this piece.
