L'Art est universel ! Telle est ma devise. Je suis passionné par la culture en général et les arts visuels en particulier. Je touche à la peinture, le graphisme, la photographie numérique et la calligraphie. Une diversité qui reflète bien ma devise d'universalité.

Chaque projet, chaque personne, chaque sillon de ride est une histoire, un souvenir, un voyage. En images, je raconte.

Helen Fortin is a prolific, expressionist painter focussing on abstraction and landscape. She was born in Sherbrooke, Quebec and graduated from Bishop’s University in 1979 with a Bachelor of Arts. Her art is highly influenced by memories of the fresh, natural beauty and solitude of the Eastern Townships, and her literary background as an avid reader and writer is reflected in her works as pure poetry in motion. Her pieces are imbued with flowing saturated colour schemes and layered textures, all enlivened by a vivid colour palette. The result exudes a jarring sense of movement, power and light enticing the viewer to enter the painting and experience their own personal journey. We are spellbound as her works pique our curiosity, stir our souls and bring our imaginations to life. As an expressionist painter, Helen’s creative process is spontaneous and relies on her sub-conscious to locate truth and depth of feeling. Her imagination runs rampant resulting in compositions that naturally emerge reflecting her warm and ingratiating style. Throughout her career as a promoter Helen was privy to what make artists tick. She understands the tremendous influence art has in unifying community and has made it her personal mission to get this message across through her participation in the Woman’s Art Studio of Montreal, Artists in Montreal, NDG Art Hop and the Old Brewery Mission Arts Committee. She recently stepped down from the Visual Arts Centre board after a 3-year stint. In 2023, Helen was invited to exhibit solo at CAFÉ/GALLERY AVENUE G in Westmount and in charity auctions for Auberges du Coeur and YES! (Youth Employment Services). Donations include paintings to the Fraser-Hickson Institute and Summit School (special needs students). In 2024 Helen will be in a group show at Gallerie Erga and in a private exhibition for a high profile not-for-profit organization which helps the homeless. She is also being exhibited at Fondation Marie-Vincent, Thunder Lotus Games, Law Firm: Cabinet WMR International s.a., and her artwork may be viewed in her local MNA’s offices. helen-fortin.wixsite.com/helenfortinartist https://www.gallea.ca/en/artists/helen-fortin
