July - September 2015
Self-taught painter, CARO chose the profession of graphic designer to fulfill his desires to create which have animated him since his early childhood. For more than a year, she has rediscovered this buried passion which now overflows with desire and desire to evolve through this wonderful means of expression that is painting. She paints pictures filled with bright colors, contrasts and movements. We feel a lot of love, joy and energy in his works. Naturally creative and passionate, CARO remains in constant evolution through its creations. The main medium she uses is acrylic. The freedom felt by the magic of color mixtures makes her alive and nourishes her creative spirit. Painting is an opportunity for her to channel her energy and thus maintain a good balance with life.

Acrylic paint
September 2015
Previously, his style of painting was rather naive and very colorful and borrowed processes from the world of comics. After a creative break in painting, she resumed her approach where she left off, while wanting to take it further, even transform it.
Now, she retains the touch of naivety in the features of her characters, but she wishes to make them more sensual, more feminine and above all more contrasting. This is why she affirms that her artistic approach is a real metamorphosis in terms of her style and also as an image.

Annie Kindness
Art figurative
November - December 2015
Opening November 12, 6:30 p.m.
Annie Gentesse signs a conscientious and committed practice that reflects on life. Works that are the fruit of sharp observations scrutinized by a lucid eye. Images that combine refined staging and characters. Gentesse's works rely on the power of messages while exploiting the sweet connivance of humor and efficiency. The verve thus tabled gives the spectator back his freedom and his critical spirit. Annie Gentesse skillfully uses this strategy to establish a symbiosis that allows her to present the nonsense of life. It is not only the unconsciousness of the remarks, the various events that seem trivial and the workings or the cogs of all the systems that act as catalysts and triggers of the creative process on standby; there are also the charms of life, heart and reason that structure the works of Gentesse.
Strategically, the artist uses figurative art to develop a painting charged with meaning, reflection and commentary. Authentic, she creates works by representing her characters with an amusing and surprising facies. Gentesse puts into images the tragedies and comedies of life where everyone plays a role. A tailor-made role that the artist-illustrator stages in a masterful way.

Caroline Dion
March 2016
The expressionist painter, Caroline Dion, who took up the brush in 1995, works to capture the emotional essence of her subjects. Like dreams, her images appear to her when she closes her eyes. These few seconds allow him to immortalize on a piece of paper what will later be the reflection of his thoughts. She paints to satisfy an artistic imagination hyperactive and at the same time release emotions on edge. Painting, poetry will always be part of his life. Like a poem, she opens her coeur to anyone who wants to read it. Acrylic lending itself well to the desired effect, so she decided to experiment with this medium.
Jennifer Hélie

ARTISTIC APPROACH
Seduced by the instantaneism and transience of nature in constant evolution, Hélie now wishes to bring a new perspective and therefore embraces the Impressionist movement; first, in the naturalistic phase and then, in the evolutionary phase of the movement. She exploits materialism and light fragmentation in order to express her reality, her moods and her unique vision of the landscape, in a contemporary way, a bit like a pictorial symphony, a perpetual movement. Through her approach, the artist seeks to push her limits, capture the imprint of nature and the poetry that inhabits her... Capturing the vibration and the light source of the landscape is essential for her._cc781905-5cde-3194- bb3b-136bad5cf58d_
Since the beginning of his career, the artist has charmed several private collectors who follow his path and acquire his works.

Training

1964-1965 Social Sciences, University of Ottawa, Ottawa
Whole character whose marginality has remained intact, his works show an effervescent imagination, served by a touch of rare vivacity, a very personal sense of color, at the same time sought after, brilliant, original.
His subjects remain of a lived exoticism (far from the postcard) strongly inspired by the Amerindian universe as much by the themes (physical and cultural environment) as by the spirit (personal attitude and technique of realization)

November-December 2016
The “Arrêt le temps” exhibition presents large format works highlighting nature in its simplest expression. With today's life being so busy, the artist wanted to give art lovers a break through this simplistic yet imaginative exhibition. The works illustrate in a zen and refined way, with a modern treatment, the earth, the horizon, the water...
In his artistic approach, the artist purifies the subjects to leave space for the mind. Colors, fluids, textures and brush strokes mark his signature. Subtle play of light and contrasts create a zen and relaxing atmosphere, inviting the observer “to take a break”.
The proposed treatment inspires great emotions. The depth that emanates from the works, like the atmosphere of a great novel, transports the observer into his own inner world. The clearing observed in the works each leads to introspection.
