Louis Leray

An artistic vocation revealed through passion and perseverance
Born in 1943 in Brittany, far removed from the artistic world after a career in construction and public works, I would have loved to be an artist, but fate decided otherwise. Self-taught, I developed my skills through encounters, the painting clubs I attended, and...
Invaluable advice from my teacher Nathalie. Year after year, I perfect my technique and build a personal universe, animated by an undiminished curiosity and the pleasure of creating.
As a painter, sculptor in expanded metal, and author, I advocate a sincere and spontaneous approach to
Art. Each of my creations is unique, conceived without a model, with the desire to offer what I cannot
I can't find it in exhibitions. Inspired by the artists I admire, I give free rein to my
imagination, convinced that a painting must first and foremost evoke an emotion in me before it can touch me
viewer.
