The artist
R.W. Geoffroy
Sainte-Louise
As self-taught painter and sculptor, I developed my wood carving skills at Saint-Jean-Port-Joli’s École de sculpture in 1975–1976. I started teaching there and then taught at the Maison des métiers d’art de Québec for 16 years. I am as comfortable with paint or wood as I am with clay or synthetic resins. I frequently use these mediums together if It proves necessary for my creations. Through my art, I strive to show the human in all dimensions: either the human at work, the human behind the mask, or the human in its own imagination. If I want to live, I need to create! It is my breath: the air oxygenates my lungs and creating oxygenates my brain.
I am proud to participate in my community’s efforts to unite various artistic practices. Our region will be known for artistic expression in all its forms.
Unframed artwork
Our unframed paper works are sold in plastic protective envelopes designed expressly for the artwork. Your new acquisition will therefore be sent to you in complete safety.
The artwork is slipped into an acid-free plastic envelope with stiff cardboard on the back to prevent any curl in the paper. This envelope is then sealed so that the work remains intact and without contact with dust.
Since the plastic envelope are acid-free, you will be able to keep the artwork in its packaging for several years (or even decades!) without fear of the artwork deteriorating. So you can take the time to choose the perfect frame for your new favorite artwork !
Despite our desire to minimize the use of polluting packaging, unfortunately we have not found yet other solutions to properly protect paper works. However, we are always on the lookout for ways to contribute to the well-being of our planet!
Importantly, paper works should never be placed in direct sunlight, which would deteriorate the colors, despite the protective plastic envelope.
