Jean-Francois Provost

Jean-François Provost is a Quebec painter whose figurative work is distinguished by remarkable luminosity and a mastery of atmosphere. His portraits and genre scenes, executed in oil or acrylic, capture the fleetingness of a moment with a sensitivity close to magical realism. His interest in natural light and its effects on skin and everyday objects lends his compositions a poetic depth, situating his work within the continuity of the great Quebec painterly tradition.
