Painting Les voiles by Chevalier Lionel | Painting Figurative Marine Minimalist Wood Acrylic

Lionel, a Breton who lived in Normandy for several years before returning to settle in the port town of Saint-Malo, became passionate about the visual arts from a young age. Entirely self-taught, he began to exhibit and sell his watercolours at just sixteen. Subsequently, he turned towards other formats and techniques to achieve the development of a pictorial style today which is his own, sailing between figuration and abstraction, between saturation and balance. For attention to detail, the artist prefers synthesis, choosing to offer hi audience a deep and sensitive composition which summons the imagination rather than the gaze.
