Michel Brouand

My artistic expression finds its source and its strength in my meetings: painters, poets, readings, journeys, experiences of life and my memories.
My painting expresses a reflection of reality. Seemingly abstract, my paintings are punctuated with recurring signs, figures, writings, moments of breathing that make them alive, sensitive, human.
I work mainly with pigments linked to acrylic but also with fatty chalks, pencils, collages.

I am a self-taught professional painter, I paint and draw from a very young age, I have long worked in oil in a figurative style: portraits, scenes, landscapes. At the beginning of the 90s I switched to acrylic and my expression was gradually oriented towards a painting made of large colored tints, increasingly abandoning figuration.
