Guy Le Gendre

A native of AMIENS (1946), I showed an early interest in painting. After the Beaux Arts in Amiens, I joined the ABC school in Paris.

Above all attached to bucolic reality and the maritime atmosphere that I evoke with an impressionist stroke, I am fascinated by the light with which I try to flood the canvas by playing with the spectrum of colors.

This is how reality, suggestion and invitation to dream come together. Often in contact with the public, because I exhibit oils, watercolours, drawings and pastels in salons and galleries, especially in France.

This will have earned me more than 50 awards (1st prize, medals and trophies) since the "Baptism of Fire" in Touquet; I was 16.

Quite recently: a work that earned me the 1st prize of the Republican Guard, exhibited at the Invalides.

Sale at the Hôtel Drouot. 1st prize of the National Commemoration of Jules Verne. 1st prize at the International Painting Competition (Belgium).

You can find me at the Cote des Peintres AKOUN...

Beyond this anecdotal, my only concern: "Real Painting and Communicating with You"
