CSI Jump Bost [Invited Artist & Event Partner]

Horses ~ Art ~ Fontainebleau 🐴 🎨 🌳

Hello !

CSI Jump Bost (international showjumping) is coming up this week at Le Grand Parquet, Fontainebleau (from 1–4 October).

I’m delighted to be joining CSI Jump Bost in a different way this time, not as a rider, but as Artist & Event Partner. I’ll be there with new work, a small art boutique and LIVE painting … with a little added spice: our mare, Bellissima Gravelotte, will also be in the ring with my daughter.

Horses and the sport are a constant source of inspiration for my work … so having both sides of my life come together makes this event very special.

And a little horse news from home …

Meet Limone and Co.

We retired my mare (and art muse), Bowie de la Mure, who is thoroughly enjoying life in the fields of Normandy. And we’ve welcomed Limone and Co (“Lemon” 🍋) to the family.

She’s 5, with an amazing temperament and movement, and stands a tall 17 hands. So my three-step mounting block is staying firmly in use! 😂

My new project ❤️

If you’re at Le Grand Parquet, stop by and say hello 👋 You’ll find me beside the Spring Garden warm-up ring, behind the Carrière des Princes.

And join us for the Partners Cocktail on Saturday, 3 October at 6pm. 🥂

Looking forward to a very full four days of horses & art in Fontainebleau!

Best regards,
Jeannine

LGCT Cannes 2026 [Artist Recap]

View fullsize

LGCT Cannes 2026 has come and gone - great memories 🎨🐴🌴

It was such an honor to be the Invited Artist & Official Event Partner for the Longines Global Champions Tour de Cannes 2026 — creating original oil paintings for the three CSI2* winner’s prizes, exhibiting artwork across the VIP Espaces and Show Office, and capturing moments around the venue through quick ink sketches and watercolor studies.

And yes — doing it all with a new hat from my favorite hat shop in Barbizon, ArteMilanrio. Thank you, Rolando!

New Cannes-themed painting series

The new original painting series created for the event brought together the energy of international showjumping with the color, movement, and atmosphere of the French Riviera.

Each painting was created to hold a particular sense of movement and presence through Riviera colors. The most challenging element, as a colorist, was how to describe the horse without knowing what color horse the winner would be. I wanted something memorable — using color to suggest any horse, while the Bay of Cannes served as the common thread across all three paintings.

It was a privilege to see the works presented to the winning horse-and-rider combinations and to share this collaboration with the international LGCT community.

The level of sport was extraordinary. Watching the riders and horses move through the arena also reinforced what I wanted the paintings to hold: energy, light, and movement.

… And around the venue…

Beyond the winner’s prizes, it was very special to exhibit a broader selection of my original artwork across the VIP Espaces and Show Office. Seeing my horses on canvas placed throughout the venue created a dialogue between the paintings, the event, and the live atmosphere of international competition.

Art in Motion

I also loved the spontaneous side of the week — sketchbook in hand, moving through the venue, observing the horses, riders, atmosphere, and light. Those quick ink sketches and watercolor studies became another way of responding directly to the event as it unfolded.

So what else?

📣 I plan to release a fourth and final oil painting from the Cannes series. Because this piece was created to remain with me, I chose to hold it back until LGCT Cannes was finished. More soon.

✨ The original Cannes winners prize collection is also being considered for limited-edition prints. If interested in obtaining a print, please let me know.  [Enquire About Limited Edition Prints]

Thank you to everyone who visited, followed the journey, and supported this extraordinary collaboration ☺️

Best,

Jeannine

PSST ….. Coming next….I’ll be exhibiting at Galerie Thuillier in Paris for its FINAL exhibition before the gallery closes it doors. I will be sending out details in a separate email. Most importantly the vernissage is Tuesday 23 June at 6pm

We are now LIVE from LGCT Cannes 2026 🎨🐴🌴

The Longines Global Champions Tour de Cannes is now underway, and I’m delighted to be here as Artiste mise à l’honneur 2026 / Invited Artist & Official Event Partners for the 2026 Edition.

After several intense months in the studio, the new original artwork created especially for Cannes has now arrived at the event — with the full reveal still to come — to be shown alongside a selected group of original equine paintings from my studio, brought together for this occasion.

My artwork is located around the event including the Espace VIP Riders, Espace VIP Sponsors, and Show Office. 🖼️

I’am also moving around the showgrounds including the visitor village and paddock with watercolors and sketchbook in hand, capturing small moments of Cannes — horses, light, movement, and the atmosphere of the show.🎨

As an artist, horse owner, and amateur showjumper, it means so much to be part of this amazing event bringing together my two passions (art and horses) on the French Riveria atmosphere and light.

Acardi du Houssoit Z finished

With end of school year and horse shows had little time so a bit behind. Very excited to have finished “Acardi du Houssoit Z” 100x80cm oils on linen painting, which was on show as a “draft” at the June 2019 Masterpro Horse Show at Fontainebleau. I love this size canvas as have more freedom to use color and light with brushwork to bring out the movement. I wanted to to capture the surge / power clearing a wide 1.60 meter height over through light and colour. White is never white. Inspired by a Ben Radvanyi photo.

This is a snip-it of the original painting. A full view of the painting can be found on my website under "Gallery/ Fresh off the easel".

“Brietling LS” painting finished

“Breiting LS” painting is finished: inspired by a zoom of photo taken by Shannon Brinkman (http://shannonbrinkman.zenfolio.com): Breitling LS ridden by Beezie Madden (USA) at the Longines FEI World Cup Finals 2018 Showjumping held in Paris in April 2018. My family was in attendance to watch the spectacular finale which they won! This is photo snip-it of the painting. Check out the full version posted under “Gallery” on my website.
