Jean-Pierre Guay. Sculptor. Wood carver. Painter. Charny, Quebec. Active mid to late 20th century.
Jean Pierre Guay is a brilliant and multi-talented colorist, cabinet maker and artist. His sculptural subjects were birds, animals and occasionally weather vanes. His finishes were ‘as found’ colors and often were dense and glossy. Mr. Guay very rarely signed his carvings. He has more recently returned to his first love which was painting. He paints wild-life scenes that he signs and dates. Jean-Pierre Guay’s paintings can be found in galleries around Quebec.
