Kevin Franitch French

Kevin  Franitch paintings bridges mid-century architectural design, craftsmanship, and poetic still life. A graduate of École Boulle in Paris, Franitch draws on his woodworking background to compose precise, harmonious compositions on large-scale acrylic-on-linen canvases.

His imagery often evokes sunlit Mediterranean or Atlantic coastal scenes—empty plastic chairs on hot sand or minimalist beachscapes—capturing quiet moments between observer and environment. These works, inspired by vintage photography and the understated elegance of 20th-century design, convey a serene yet emotionally resonant atmosphere.

In Franitch’s paintings, familiar objects and architectural elements become carriers of memory and atmosphere. The clarity of form and light reflects his dual fascination with materiality and design, situating his practice at the intersection of craftsmanship, nostalgia, and contemporary visual simplicity.
