Claude Lépine was born in the city of Granby in 1964. He is the youngest of a family of four children. At the age of 1, his parents moved to Montreal in the Plateau Mont-Royal district where Claude flourished as a child and teenager. Painting has amazed him since his earliest childhood, but the passion came when he met the work of the painter Riopelle. Inspired, he threw himself into oil and acrylic painting with great interest.

Multidisciplinary and self-taught painter, Claude Lépine likes to express his emotions through his works. Via mediums, spatulas and brushes, he delivers his moods of the moment. Joy, exaltation, pain or sadness, these vibrations are transformed, settle on the canvas and bear witness to their presence. With gestural fluidity, Claude Lépine creates dynamic interweavings in vibrant colors.

 

In recent years, a semi-figurative figure emerges from these dynamic pictorial explorations. The artist nicknamed her Madame. To create this character, Claude Lépine was inspired by his mother, at the time a professional seamstress, for whom each dress made became magical. From this idea, he was able to develop a series of canvases at the heart of which Madame, with her colorful dresses, lives all kinds of adventures and emotions.
