Benoit Havard, born in 1981 in Orléans, is a French painter. He began to draw and paint at the age of six. In 1998, he enrolled at the School of Fine Arts in Cherbourg, where Lejeune and Valadié became his masters.

If his artistic path leads him to favor watercolor and pastel at first, he evolves today more in acrylic.

The artist draws his imagination from his travels, with a predilection for marine and urban scenes. From his brightly colored landscapes emerges a meditative atmosphere, where contemplation takes on its full meaning. And at the same time, his paintings are alive, animated by the experience that Benoit Havart manages to breathe into his paintings, real captures of a moment.
