iconTechnique: Mixed
Carl Camiré is a Canadian artist born in Montreal in 1963, whose artistic career spanning over 40 years is marked by a passion for nature and a distinctive mixed media technique. His artistic approach involves capturing the life around him on canvas, focusing on nature, especially trees. For Carl Camiré, the tree symbolizes life in perpetual evolution, a concept he strives to convey in his works.
From the beginning of his career, Camiré stood out for his unique portrayal of nature. His paintings are characterized by vivid colors and rich textures, immersing the viewer in a world of emotion and spontaneity. They exude a joie de vivre and freshness that become the essence of his art.
His artistic training began at Cégep Édouard-Montpetit, followed by a course in commercial illustration at Studio Salette. After working as the vice president and art director for an architectural magazine, his growing desire for artistic freedom led him to a one-year position as a set designer in Guadeloupe, an experience that deeply influenced his art. Upon returning to Quebec, he continued to paint with renewed passion and innovation. Today, Carl Camiré's works enrich numerous private and corporate collections in Canada, the United States, Europe, and Asia.
