Robert Paradis. Sculptor. Woodcarver. Frampton, Quebec. Active second half 20th century.
Robert Paradis made carvings of people, often in groups in social and work situations. His carvings were naive, detailed and finely coloured. His sculptures were always painted in bright, glossy by his spouse Angelina Turgeon (1923-2005) and her colour work added a significant dimension to the carvings.
