Painting Crépuscule sous les palmiers by Devie Bernard | Painting Figurative Subject matter

It was at the age of 12 that Bernard DEVIE discovered an interest in art and particularly in painting. Due to a lack of space in the theater workshop, his school offered him the painting workshop where he quickly blossomed. He then turned to architecture but quickly realized that work and life in an agency did not suit him. Bernard then turned to teaching young children and devoted his evenings to painting and modeling classes. The artist settled in Grenoble in 1974, then in Lyon in 1988 and divides his life between teaching and art. In the middle of the year 2000, he decided to devote himself fully to painting.
