Gilles Coulon

Gilles Coulon lives and works in Yerres in Essonne. After studying art and architecture at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and a diploma in architecture DPLG, he jointly pursued a career as an illustrator (particularly in real estate) and a painter: several personal exhibitions in prestigious places : 3 exhibitions at the Orangerie in Parc Caillebotte, in several showrooms including the Ecart agency under the aegis of Andrée Putman.

His work favors above all the spontaneity of the gesture and the harmony of the colors. The subjects are quite eclectic ranging from portraits to still lifes, but it is above all the landscapes that dominate. He works them in the studio from sketches and sketches made on "the pattern".

The small formats presented in coasters are made in acrylic and the canvases in acrylic and oil.

Gilles Coulon also organizes his paintings from memories of a glimpsed landscape, of conflict between heavy masses and wide open spaces and takes a distant look at intimate feelings.
