In 1999, he left Besancon to live in Auxerre in Yonne, where he continued to paint and sculpt. In Auxerre, he held regular expositions at the TIA Gallery in Migennes and in Sens. One of his paintings was published in the book L'Yonne et les peintres (The Yonne and its Painters) to illustrate the gothic cathedral Saint-Etienne d'Auxerre.
In 1974, he was granted an honorary diploma and bronze medal of Arts, Sciences, and Lettres. The prize was for still life works submitted to the International Competition for Contemporary Art held in Lyon. At the Salon and international competition of Bourgogne France-Comte in 1978, he received the another medal in the category of Art Figuratif Classique. in 1983 he received the gold medal for the same.
In the 1970s, Georges Petetin began a more focused part of his career. He received his first medal for an international competition in 1973 for his works 'Still Life with Fish' and 'The Stream'. He also began to show his works in the United States, most notably in Washington state, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C.
Georges Petetin became known for his art principally through expositions at the Old Post Office in Besancon. He joined the Society of French Artists in 1964, and began showing regularly at the Grand_Palais in Paris.
When World War II began, Émile Bernard wrote a letter on Petetin's behalf, petitioning "To the Captain of the 24th infantry Regiment of the 6th Company; To please remove [his] student, Georges Petetin, from the military authority; so he can pursue his courses at the Academy of Beaux-Arts in Paris." Despite the efforts of his master, Georges Petetin left for the front in 1940. At the battle of Chateau-Porcien in 1941, he was wounded by a mortar and was sent to Reims for recovery, where he used the opportunity to show several works at the Pau Museum. Upon returning to Besancon, on June 17 1943 he married Elsa Martinelli (1922-2020).
In 1937, Petetin was admitted to the Academy of Beaux-Arts of Paris where studied under (among others) Louis Roger from 1937 to 1939. His scholarship did not include living expenses, so he also worked painting theater backdrops while pursuing his studies.
In his adolescence, his parents moved to Besancon. He enrolled in the Ecole des Beaux-Arts of Besancon in 1934 and studied there until 1936. He was awarded several prizes for the art and sculpture there. One of these prizes was a scholarship to continue his art studies in Paris.
Petetin studied with Émile Bernard who noticed his talent in 1934, and took him as a student, becoming his master teacher from 1937 to 1941, introducing him to many celebrated artists.
