Jacques LOISEAU
French Artist and Painter


BIOGRAPHY

   
   
  Jacques Loiseau, an artist of dynamic power, blasts his canvases with the joy of living in Provence. “I paint with my heart and instinct," he says, "not my head. The most beautiful painting is always the next one my inspiration grants me — a prolific destiny which favors shape and color, the source of my happiness, and every day brims up in me, expressing itself through my paint brushes. My paintings are like lessons in life, strong, bold, balanced, brilliant, and they vibrate joyfully on the canvas, so that only joy remains, thrilling the senses and magnifying the colors.”  
  Jacques Loiseau was born 1920, in a small village in the center of France. From his early years, his talent as an artist, in drawing and painting, was clearly visible. It was in 1954 that he began to focus his attention on his first love, painting.   
Charmed by the atmosphere and beauty of Provence, he finally settled in Aix-en-Provence in 1986. The beauty of the area, and its influence on his paintings is plainly visible. He now lives in the very place where Paul Cézanne painted “Le Mont Sainte-Victoire vu des Lauves.” He continues to paint with enthusiasm and passion to this day. His paintings of landscapes and provençal scenes are reminiscent of the classical Impressionist and Fauvist style of the great masters. But Jacques has created his own unique style of painting.
  Jacques Loiseau exhibits his works regularly in galleries and museums around the world. His paintings are in private collections in France, the United States, Britain, Germany, Austria, Italy and Japan.
