Retrouvez-moi ce trimestre dans la revue trimestrielle "Plaisirs de peindre" pour une "démo" de peinture à l'huile sur la thématique "plage bretonne en fin de saison.
Dans la thématique des plages bretonnes, cette peinture à l’huile de la plage de Portez dans la commune portuaire et balnéaire du Conquet, en pointe Finistère. Les eaux y sont très souvent limpides et de cette jolie teinte qui a donné son nom à la mer d’Iroise.
Le tableau montre la vue qui s’offre aux promeneurs lorsqu’ils s’engagent sur le sentier qui monte à l’extrémité sud de la plage, vers la pointe Saint-Matthieu.
A l’horizon, on devinera l’archipel de Molène, que les non initiés mais cinéphiles et amateurs de football ou de comédies, auront peut être découvert il y a quelques années « Les Seigneurs », le film d’Olivier Dahan, ayant réuni une jolie brochette d’acteurs célèbres : José Garcia, Jean-Pierre Marielle, Franck Dubosc, Gad Elmaleh, Omar Sy, Ramzy, Joey Starr… autour de la vraie vedette du film qui n’était autre, bien entendu, que l’île de Molène... Et encore au delà, mais ici on ne la devine pas, l'île d'Ouessant.
Plus près en partie droite de la peinture, on apercevra aussi, l’extrémité de la pointe de Kermorvan avec son phare, tour ramassée et massive de section carrée, qui est, pour la petite histoire, le phare à terre "le plus à l'ouest" de France…

Henri Le Goff is a self-taught professional painter, born in 1946 in the Quimper region (Finistère). From his childhood, he was passionate about drawing and painting.

He organized his first exhibitions in 1967-1968 in Wissembourg, Seltz, Soufflenheim and Haguenau, where he was noticed. After a short interruption for professional reasons, he resumed his artistic activities in 1982 and never left them since then.

He paints on the motif as in his studio. He mainly works with oil painting, which offers him the pleasure of material, light and an infinitely rich palette, but does not neglect gouache and watercolor. His subjects are resolutely figurative: he likes to represent what he sees, letting himself be guided by his emotions and his naturalness. For him, painting is intended to be color, luminosity, richness of drawing and balance of the subject.

He has always had a particular attraction to maritime landscapes: seascapes, in all their forms, it is true that they make up the bulk of his work. Sensitive to the world of the sea, full of admiration for illustrious predecessors like the official painters of the Navy Albert Brenet, Marin-Marie, Mathurin Méheut, Roger Chapelet, Jean Rigaud and many others, he is happy in his turn , to be able to bring, very modestly, a testimony of his time on this oh so fascinating environment!

For around twenty years until 2016, he anchored in the small port of Sainte-Marine in the commune of Combrit, where he ran his personal gallery in the summer season. He has won prizes in regional or national exhibitions and competitions (Châteauneuf du Faou, Briec de l’Odet, Douarnenez, Chartres, Argol, Loctudy, Quimper, Roscoff, Bénodet, Pont-Croix). It has been selected several times at the Salon de la Marine (Paris). Since October 2012, he has been a painter at the Academy of Maritime Arts and Sciences.
