Jean-Paul NOGUERO

Criticism

Born in the Pyrenees and passionate about painting, Jean-Paul Noguero took advantage of his upcoming retirement to call on the artistic resources he had acquired in days gone by at the fine arts school of Toulouse. As a result, he has become a painter who is partial to outdoor painting, capturing locations in lively sketches before adding colour and his own way of celebrating light. His very measured and structured figurative style has led him to create a pictorial ensemble that does not seek a velvety, impressionistic smoothness, but aims to convey a direct and frank observation in all its freshness. Locations are bathed in light and revived by carefully crafted perspectives that come to life under his feverish and fluid brushstroke and always reflect the changes of time and climate. Without essentially flouting his artistic learning, and proving this with pretty and attractive pieces, Jean-Paul Noguero possesses a style that is very much his own, with precision and picturesque beauty easily mingling in pleasant and elegant sequences. The artist conserves every detail in order to breathe an almost naïve quality into his works, in which curious and fine characters are seen to go about their busy lives. By mastering expressivity and precision, Jean-Paul Noguero has made a name for himself as a painter of emotion and bright colour, hence his rich and always beautifully composed pieces that stand as a vital and extremely valuable testimony.
