Eccentric Classic Paintings

Benedicte Peyrat Paints with Disturbing Panache

The artwork of French artist, Benedicte Peyrat is truly beautiful. The amount of detail and variation of colors he uses make for a classically styled oil painting. However, the subjects of his paintings are slightly on the strange side.

From topless overweight men and women with children and animals, to a pudgy man with female genitalia, the muses for his artwork are more than eccentric. What I would give to pick the brain of Benedicte Peyrat and learn more about his inspirations.
