Jean-Marie Renault's paintings are the fruit of passion, spontaneity and an element of chance... Each painting is hypnotizing and invites you on a colorful journey that calls on our memories, our feelings through with a benevolent dynamic! The artist invites us to daydream, in a moving universe where color is a muse. This convivial creativity encourages us to look at the smallest colored detail and in this observation, we leave a part of reality to enjoy the sensations and feelings that touch us.
