Painting Arika by Novarino Fabien | Painting Pop-art Pop icons

Originally from Savoie, Fabien spent his childhood at the heart of the mountains where he devoted himself to the pleasures of drawing, painting and model making. He would then move to the south of France with his family. His love for large spaces would therefore be disrupted by this radical change, both in terms of climate and landscape. This new settlement would heavily influence him and definitively fix his determination to become a painter. He would pursue literary studies and assiduously frequent museums and exhibitions before embracing a commercial career. Aged 27, he stopped his professional career to dedicate himself exclusively to the pursuit of his childhood passion. Initially close to the Provencal school, he produced many canvases with different figurative subjects, ranging from landscapes from his region to representations of scenes from everyday life. He would then wide his field of exploration turning towards resolutely different locations with marked contrasts such as New York, Paris or even Morocco.
