The painting of Georges Maes is inspired by a love of freedom and dramatic motion.
This is an artist intoxicated by the process of releasing himself to the movement of his brush to capture the magnificence of nature. An avid hiker, Maes has an abiding passion for the land in the Gatineau region.
Working from a palette of rich colours, he transposes to canvas emotions absorbed in the course of his excursions. Georges Maes favours oil to express the intensity of his feelings and the richness of nature.
