Subject: Painters dream of illustrating the
physical sensation of fragrance. They want to use color, texture
and composition to convey the profuse aromas of an exotic
marketplace, the delicate nuances of an aromatic blossom,
or the scent of a squirt of lemon. Although such a task seems
difficult and challenging, it is nevertheless possible. Few
artists have more exquisitely crossed into this olfactory
threshold than Guy Bégin with his impressionist style of painting.
There is a reason why Guy Bégin is call “The Painter of Perfumes.”
The flowers that Bégin inserts into his art illogically seems
to fill the air with a heavenly aroma. For Guy Bégin life
under the sun inspires the artist, and his colors express
the sensory pleasures of nature. Bégin’s canvasses are sun-drenched
and focus on gardens, recreation and quietude. Art is an expression
of emotions as well as an interpretation of reality. Bégin
sees, as do all artists, the world through a very personal
lens. His vision is unique and his artwork is a subjective
image of an eternal idea.
