Gérard Chambettaz

Nice, France
Artist (Painting)
Born 1950

Originally from Switzerland but adopted from Nice for 45 years, Gérard CHAMBETTAZ has been passionate about painting since a very young age. Pupil of Villa Thiole, he did all his classes in Nice where after having tried his hand at oil in his very beginnings, he opted for watercolor, an artistic discipline that he handles wonderfully with the end of his brush. .

Gérard CHAMBETTAZ is not the type to lock himself in a studio, he loves working in the open air and in public. Very sensitive to the atmosphere and the beauty of the place, he particularly likes the nice little corners of the hinterland where he can at leisure blend into the decor and establish communication with the natives of the area. Thus, he participated in many easels in freedom and won various prizes, notably at the Renoir Museum in Cagnes-sur-Mer, in Coaraze and in Lantosque. Member of the European Academy of Graphic Arts, a venerable association chaired by Mr. Paul Tomatis, he has the particularity of being a painter from Provence and the Pays Niçois who works on the spot, in a very spontaneous way. He looks for the place, discovers the site, sets up his easel and with a turn of the hand, traces the main lines of his work which he will refine with soft, ocher or pastel hues, in harmony with the place and the characters.< br />
From Mont Boron to Vésubie, from Siagne to Tinée, from Savoie to Mercantour, he weaves his web like others stretch a veil over our heads to better draw us into his pictorial and romantic universe, imbued with freshness and truth where everyone finds themselves over their paintings.
