Real Fournier paintings in Toronto gallery
Led by a dream, Réal has rediscovered the happiness of his childhood.
There is a real childlike "joie de vivre" about Réal's work. The bright colours, subjects of small town life, tiny scenes of everyday occurence told with joy, warmth and feeling. Réal's works are usually large canvasses, painted with bold strokes of bright colour, the paint thick and lustrous. Houses, skating rinks, trees, a little of fantasies... all bend and move and stretch with an energy that almost can't be contained on a mere canvas.
"I now understand why I am painting like that. It is like I'm living the life of my childhood again. From all this imagery I am creating, I'm just seeing myself as a happy child. Inside, I get closer to what my dreams say, that I will feel a profound joy to paint who I am."
