Jean Tismit

 Jean Timsit, born 1961, is a painter and art photographer who lives and works in Paris, France. He has practiced black and white photography for forty years and has trained himself to master all its technical aspects, including printing, which he sees as an integral part of the creative process.

He begun 1985 drawing and painting in 1985. He received  a rich and varied training: at  the Louvre, later in California, with Betty Edwards, at Stanford University, at The Pacific Art League (Palo Alto). He also extensively studied specific techniques of the old masters in oil paint, encaustic and egg emulsion with Patrice de Pracontal and André Fisch in Paris.

Jean Timsit exhibited his paintings and photography at the National Museum for Asian Arts, Guimet, Paris, at the Modern Book Gallery (San Francisco), at The Gold Coast Gallery (New York) and was recently invited as an artist in residence at the Festival APART (St Remy de Provence)

In an earlier professional life, Jean Timsit was an International business lawyer, specializing in dispute resolution and mediation. He received his training at HEC school of management, Paris, and joined the Paris bar in 1985.

He has worked as a full time professional artist since 2006. He photographs exclusively in black and white, using only film and traditional wet laboratory techniques, pushing the limits of those now mostly forgotten practices. He produces his own chemicals, when those are not available anymore. He paints mostly in Oil, but also uses egg emulsion, mixed techniques and water based or encaustic paints. He produces some of his own paints and mediums. His approach to painting is slow and detailed. The same goes for his photography, even though photography is relatively faster by nature.

Jean Timsit also created and runs a scientific research group around the themes of happiness (Project +) and is part of the United Nations Expert Group on this topic. He publishes, with his group, in scientific journals. He sees this work as an integral part of his expression, art and science illuminating each other.
