BLES A LA STE VICTOIRE (2005) Painting by Alain Demarte

Provençal painter

Demarte paints Provence and the Côte d'Azur with the same mastery of those who love them and know how to pay homage to them.
The relationships between space, color and atmosphere are defined with a line that is both a poetic vision and an extremely realistic inspiration.
In the landscapes, something fleeting emerges, an impression of the ephemeral and momentary testifying to the vitality of the themes which is only equaled by the science of drawing and colors.
The chromatic transitions are delicate but sometimes brutal, as Provence can also be.
Through the interplay of lights, shadows, colors and the contrast they form, the atmosphere of landscapes and seascapes is both a reality and a poetic dream.

Alain Demarte is a perfect artist. He has always been devoted to art and his life can only be turned towards creation.
As a master of colors and light he expresses tremendous emotion in all his works. The painter also makes us take part in the harmony and vibrations of shade and light, through the shape of is drawings, the result of which is obviously of a high quality.
His paintings have the greatness of perfectly achieved works of art. He is one of those outstanding talented artists who leave academic Knowledge and reveal their true and free way of expressing themselves.
A lover of Provence which is constantly reflected in this painting, he never shows dull, sad or colorless limited landscapes, but on the contrary, his eyes take us far ahead. Thanks to him, we keep a taste of simple happiness and good humour.
