GENEST Philippe

This artist from Mayenne explores an artistic universe located between the figurative and the abstract. His works are distinguished by a dominance of deep blues, enriched with marked contrasts and bursts of bright colors. Passionate about outdoor painting, he directly captures the light and the essence of the landscapes he observes, to transmit a positive and luminous emotion.

Trained in applied arts and visual communication in Paris, Philippe Genest pursues an authentic and sincere approach. His work and exhibitions bear witness to his constant progression in the artistic universe.
