La Bar Que Solitude

Born in 1950 in Trois-Rivières, Quebec.

Normand Boisvert is an artist who is passionate about the land. Primarily self-taught, Boisvert has been painting, exhibiting and teaching for over 30 years.

With a swirl of colour and texture his oil paintings evoke an emotional response. The movements of his brushstrokes echo the flow of the rivers and hills so close to his heart. His images are laden with paint, transforming the flat canvas into an almost sculptural depiction of the Quebec landscape.
