I\u2019m an Olympian, an internationally renowned businessman and a painter! I\u2019m entering the final chapter of my life and have decided to become an artist of international stature.<\/p>

I\u2019ve been painting ever since I was young, and I\u2019m a graduate of Universit\u00e9 Laval in visual arts. I\u2019m a contemporary artist who uses digital images, usually from my cell phone. My technique consists of printing series of images which I then color using mixed media. I draw on many influences from art history, particularly Impressionism, Expressionism and contemporary art. I have been led to develop this technique over time because of the hectic pace of my life.<\/p>

I can\u2019t imagine painting just one picture. I want to express myself through a series of paintings in order to discover the limits of my creativity. As in sport, each painting is altered by series, repetition, energy, and fatigue, creating strong and more fragile images. I often paint famous or unknown human beings, living or gone. I paint them in series to give them new lives, glory, or emotions. I dress them, I color them. I integrate them into exhilarating or sad environments. I paint human beings with their dreams and demons. I paint the emotion that surrounds human beings, whether they are Black, White or any other color. I paint as a tribute to my human brothers and sisters. Colorization, gesture, and movement become life scenarios in my art.<\/p>

I\u2019m currently back at university, studying art history to continue enriching my work. What a pleasure it is to rub shoulders with inspiring and inspired young creators!<\/p>

I\u2019ve also decided to set up a foundation called LG ART FACTORY to help athletes and artists through the sale of my productions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Je suis un olympien, un homme d\u2019affaires de r\u00e9putation internationale et un artiste peintre! J\u2019entame le dernier chapitre de ma vie et ai d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de devenir un artiste d\u2019envergure internationale.<\/p>

Je n\u2019ai jamais cess\u00e9 de peindre depuis ma jeunesse et suis dipl\u00f4m\u00e9 de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 Laval en arts visuels. Je suis un artiste contemporain qui utilise des images num\u00e9riques provenant g\u00e9n\u00e9ralement de mon cellulaire. Ma technique consiste \u00e0 imprimer des s\u00e9ries d\u2019images que je colore \u00e0 l\u2019aide de techniques mixtes. Je fais appel \u00e0 plusieurs influences de l\u2019histoire de l\u2019art, plus particuli\u00e8rement l\u2019impressionnisme, l\u2019expressionnisme et l\u2019art contemporain. J\u2019ai d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 cette technique au fil du temps, dict\u00e9e par le rythme effr\u00e9n\u00e9 de ma vie.<\/p>

Je ne peux imaginer peindre un seul tableau. Je veux m\u2019exprimer par le biais d\u2019une s\u00e9rie de toiles, pour d\u00e9couvrir les limites de ma cr\u00e9ativit\u00e9. Comme c\u2019est le cas dans le sport, la s\u00e9rie, la r\u00e9p\u00e9tition, l\u2019\u00e9nergie, la fatigue modifient chaque tableau en cr\u00e9ant des images fortes et plus fragiles. Je peins souvent des humains c\u00e9l\u00e8bres ou inconnus, qui existent ou qui sont disparus. Je les peins en s\u00e9rie pour leur redonner des vies, de la gloire ou des \u00e9motions. Je les habille, je les colore. Je les int\u00e8gre dans des environnements exaltants ou tristes. Je peins l\u2019humain avec ses r\u00eaves et ses d\u00e9mons. Je peins l\u2019\u00e9motion autour de l\u2019humain, qu\u2019il soit noir, blanc ou de toute autre couleur. Je peins pour rendre hommage \u00e0 mes fr\u00e8res et s\u0153urs humains. La colorisation, le geste et le mouvement deviennent des sc\u00e9narios de vie dans mon art.<\/p>

J\u2019effectue pr\u00e9sentement un retour aux \u00e9tudes universitaires en histoire de l\u2019art, pour continuer \u00e0 enrichir mes \u0153uvres. Quel plaisir de c\u00f4toyer de jeunes cr\u00e9ateurs inspirants et inspir\u00e9s!<\/p>

J\u2019ai aussi d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de cr\u00e9er une fondation, LG ART FACTORY, pour venir en aide aux athl\u00e8tes et aux artistes gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 la vente de mes productions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
