Gilles Bedard was born in 1954 in Charlesbourg, near Quebec City. From the child marvelling at nature’s beauty, Gilles has kept the simplicity and naivety so characteristic of childhood. Painting provides him not only pleasure, but is a vital need and an irresistible force to which he happily succumbs.
Bedard’s paintings vibrate with joie de vivre. Majestic and proud-like trees frame the landscapes as if to protect the fragile nature. The often present sheep provide calm and serenity and are a reflection of the artist’s personality. The full force of the work of Gilles Bedard may be perceived in the luminous play of light and changing moods.
His art is found in many private and public collections across Canada.
