MONIQUE JOURNOD (France)

Monique Journod was born March 14, 1935 in Rome, Italy and is an Internationally Renowned French Artist. Her professional honors began with the First Prize of Rome in 1962. She attended the “Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux Arts de Paris" (Atelier Chaplain-Midy) where she studied with Roger Chapelain-Midy (1904-1992). Journod is also the President of the Painting Section of the Salon of French Artists. Her work is representational, and includes both still life and landscape paintings. In her classical approach, she brings a full range of experience to the canvas as she fills the painting with depth, color and life. Chetkin Gallery is proud to have been representing Monique Journod for over 20 years.
