Through the eyes of the mind
JEAN FRANCOIS ROGEON
21 November 2009 to 16 January 2010
Born in France in 1940, Jean Francois studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Poitiers. Early in 1962 he started on a twelve year journey that took him across the five continents. This journey was financed totally from the sale of water colours, gouaches and drawings produced during this time with these works being exhibited in each country visited.
Jean Francois finally settled in Melbourne where he completed an equivalency of his qualifications at P.I.T. under Peter Booth and Dale Hikey tuition. He then taught art for the next twenty years starting with a posting at the original V.C.A. Secondary College.
After retiring from the teaching profession, Jean Francois moved to Foster where he established his new studio in the very rural setting of the hills overlooking Wilsons Promontory.
