Atelier (2012) Painting by Hervé Marchelidon

Hervé Marchelidon was born in 1965 in Orléans. He lives in the small village of Tostes in Normandy in the Eure department.
A chemist by training, he worked in Research and Development for a large group in the cosmetics industry.
In 1994, he was passionate about painting and joined, in Taverny in Val d'Oise, the workshop of Ourida Ichou, a painter from Argenteuil who instilled his creative spirit.
In 2005, he founded his own workshop “ Colors and Vibrations" in his small village of Tostes which he runs, still today, for amateur painters: a workshop resolutely open to contemporary art and whose vocation is to sharpen the artistic eye, to develop creativity and to assert a personality.

The works of Hervé Marchelidon are of various inspirations: characters, still lifes, landscapes, portraits…
The subject is, however, only a pretext to his imagination. He modifies and recomposes according to his own vision of the world.
He mainly paints in acrylic on hardboard support, sometimes incorporating collages, oil pastels or charcoal.
He also works on linocuts illustrating " Rose's stories by Renée Fayon.
In his work, rich in colors, he offers a living painting, always in search of vibrations, strength and light.
