Here is one of the finest and most talented painters of Lower Normandy! Michel MARGUERAY was born in Calvados and has been practising his art for many years. He is an accomplished artist whose works I first saw in Rouen as early as 1974.
Undoubtedly figurative, Michel Margueray respects reality without remaining subordinate to it, painting it with an infinite amount of sensitivity and personality. As a landscape painter, he expertly depicts skies with much emotion and energy, thereby underlining the lively and harmonious nature of the sites. Time, climate and light combine to form a whole that demonstrates the painter's skills as a great colourist.
It is impossible to conclude without mentioning Michel MARGUERAY's flare for drawing perspectives that he judiciously chooses to extol the beauty of the landscapes. The elements, vegetation and characters extol as much the artistic profession as they do the curiosity for the unusual, and the generous nature of the atmospheres.
