DUBORD, Jean Pierre
French Benezit Impressionist
His works make people smile, make you feel you want to join the people bustling around France. His work is light-hearted, unique, interesting, and full of life. His colors are pleasing, and add a touch of sometimes whimsy to your own life. The Benezit-listed French artist's work is collected worldwide.
John-Pierre Dubord has an original approach to painting: his choice of palette colors is rich in its tones, fresh and uplifting; his canvases reveal an intense joy of life; and his love of the rhythms of nature are interpreted with nuances of color. Jean Pierre Dubord has mastered the art of imprisoning light on canvas. The delicate poetic strain in his paintings has been influenced by the Impressionists. There is a very personal touch as well, however, for as one critic remarked, "Dubord is guided solely by his heart and emotions." Westport River Gallery in Westport, Connecticut, is pleased to offer his works in the Connecticut, New York and New Jersey areas
Dubord was born in Rouen, France in l949. Although that city remains his favorite subject, he often paints the street scenes of Paris, the Normandy countryside, the beaches of Deauville and the vistas along the Seine. He infuses his work with the subtleties of light and color unique to each season and locale. A multitude of first place and gold medal awards have been won by Jean Pierre Dubord: First Prize of Ville de Canteleu, l982; Gold Medal of Ville de Reuil Malmelson, l985; and the Prize of Conseil General Salon de Pontoise in l985, to name only a few.
