Raymond-Quenneville-Photo-2-1-c21d19e

Born in 1956 in Trois-Rivières, Quebec (Canada), Raymond Quenneville is a self-taught artist who has been painting for over 35 years. In 1992, after having explored a variety of media, he went back to oil painting, and decided to pursue his own unique style in expressing landscape and light.

By playing with complementary colours, Raymond Quenneville accentuates contrasts and creates impressive luminous effects. In his landscape paintings, subtle values variations almost make visible the fine consistency of the air itself and create an illusion of depth that is convincing to the eye. He likes to paint peaceful environments, expressing serenity and equanimity of places where it is good to stop and just be for a moment. 

Raymond Quenneville has held many solo exhibitions and participated in numerous collective exhibitions and symposia. Winner of several national and international awards he has received many special mentions from juries and the public. He is a member of the Institut des arts figuratifs (IAF), of the Society of Canadian Artists (SCA), of the Mondial Art Academia (MAA) and has been nominated as Master of Fine Arts by the Académie internationale des beaux-arts du Québec (AIBAQ). There is a permanent exhibition of his work in renowned art galleries distributed across Canada and United States.
