Jean-Pierre Dubord was born in Rouen in 1949,\u00a0after spending years in the French Countryside, he returned to his native city to portray the surroundings of his youth. Rouen is a favorite subject for his paintings, but he often depicts Paris, the Normandy countryside, the beaches of Deauville and Houlgate, the Cliffs of Caux and Etretat and scenes along the Seine. He is known for his ability to capture the subtleties of light and color unique to each season.<\/p>\n

In 1970, he had his first exhibition of approximately thirty paintings in Rouen , a show which was highly praised by art critics.\u00a0 In addition to an annual show in Rouen , he has also exhibited in Bourdeaux, Le Havre , La Rochelle , Osaka , Quebec and in the major, famous salons of Paris . Dubord has his own original approach to painting.\u00a0 His palette is rich in its tones, and is fresh and uplifting.\u00a0\u00a0 His work is so highly regarded that he is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards.\u00a0 Dubord\u2019s canvases reveal his own intense joy of life and his love of the rhythms of nature is distinguished by a nuanced use of color.\u00a0 The artist\u2019s mastery of his secrets of imprisoning light on canvas and the very delicate poetic strain in his painting may be traced to the impressionist masters, but it bears a very personal touch as well.\u00a0 One critic remarked that Dubord is guided solely by his heart and emotions.<\/p>\n
