Benoȋt Prévot: The Man and His Art
This post tells a story about the artist Benoȋt Prévot. Yesterday evening, I visited his blog and he had written a long post in French with the phrase "quitte mon blog," and I freaked because in the past he had dissappeared and reopened in another blog. So I quickly wrote a comment asking if this was goodbye. He wrote back that he was blue and completely bored with everything on his drawing board except for the work with Slick It Up but it was so nice of me to comment. He was only signing off for the evening, since it was so late. [Thank goodness for that!]
I think we should all visit his blog and try to cheer him up!
The artist in a Slick It Up hood. Doesn't he look fabulous! What a hottie!

Ilove Benoit Prevot's art.
It has t a 20/30s art deco
feeling to it. He has a wonderful
gift.
Im sure the artist business is not easy however.
Your Prairie reader Jim (formerly) shoes
I never liked that. hehe
Nice to meet you Jim! I love his art too and for the same reasons! He is currently looking for more work actually. You are right; I guess that is where the saying the starving artist comes from.
Benoit Prevot's art definately has that Erte' look and feel to it. A real talent that Benoit. The art deco period is one of my faves too.
I own a beatuiful large piece of Benoit's artisty called GRAND TITON It is absolutley my favorite piece of art. he is a great illustrator by all standards
What?! That diva with the hat and her boys on the leash is fantasmic! Love it.
