Jean Pierre Le FEVRE was born in Caen where he studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts from 1949 to 1953 under the direction of LE GARRIDO. It was here that this instructor at the Departmental Centre for Children (C.D.E) in Cantelou, near Rouen, met artists of the group "Palette Cantilienne" and their president SIEBERT, not forgetting Albert MALET, with whom he had many enriching encounters. It was in 1973 that he moved to Saint-Lô and further confirmed his original talent, after having discovered the personality of Jef FRIBOULET and his studio in Fécamp. It was then that he began his brilliant ascent in the national and international artistic scene. An exceptional drawer, Jean Pierre LE FEVRE established himself as one of the most outstanding painters in Lower Normandy. Pleasant, perceptive and at the same time discrete, he dedicates himself completely to defining those of a simple and generous nature with his warm and daring palette. The translucency of his colours highlight even further his mastery at portraying an authenticity punctuated with flavourful graphic poetry.
