Francine Gravel
Cavaliere dell’arte
Biografia
"Artist Francine Gravel captures this
world on canvas. With her vivid
imagination and philosophical insight
she creates paintings and prints which
seem as if they have been captured from
the pages of children's fairy tales and
ancient medieval legends."
(Gabriele Scherubl)
Francine Gravel was born and raised in
Montreal, Quebec where she attended the
Ecole des Beaux-Arts, studying under
Albert Dumouchel. She later pursued
post-graduate studies in Belgium at the
Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and
at the University of Calgary (Alberta).
She was presented in her premiere exhibit of etchings and engravings in 1967 -
an exhibit that launched a career that has continued to grow ever since. In
1980, after a long quest, she discovered the personal style that identifies her as a
painter, and she has never looked back.
She now enjoys an international reputation and has collectors throughout the
world. She exhibits in numerous galleries throughout Canada where she is
frequently featured in one-woman shows.
