André Roubaud was born in France in 1929 and he began his artistic career as a painter from a very early age well before he attended art school, as he enjoyed painting the subjects that surrounded him like landscapes, flowers and people. After receiving his art education in Paris at "Art Libre", his work soon began to become recognized and also won prizes from his hometown region in France, and later in 1957, André began exhibiting in Paris and Marseille, then achieving international recognition having exhibited in New York, Chicago, Palm Beach, San Francisco and Montreal, Mexico, Australia, Japan, Switzerland, and Canada while winning numerous honors during his career.
André Roubaud’s paintbrush is a reflection of his soul, as in each painting he pictorially describes the Provence he grew up in with the grace of its natural beauty, almost as he would like for the viewer to see into his soul when appreciating his work. As Jean-Claude Gaudin, Senator of the Bouches-du-Rhône expressed about André’s works “Reality and dreams, realism and poetry, combine in his eyes and by his hand to move us”.

- PrintempsBy Charles LevierLocated in Costa Mesa, CAA beautiful woman sits at an open window, gazing down at a small bird who has landed nearby in this serene portrait by Charles Levier. Warm orange tones are played off their complements in shades of blue, the artist utilizing several different layers of oils to create a subtle and relaxed view of a spring day near the sea. Beyond the window a small chapel sits on a peninsula, surrounded tranquil blue waters. This work, like many of Levier's, belongs to the French figurative movement of the Glorious Thirty (Les Trente Glorieuses) - the golden period of thirty years after WWII which were a time of great hope and prosperity in France. Inspired by Hollywood cinema, Charles Levier sought harmony in composition and purity of color and form. His said that his creations represented "a light and delicate world, of dark and subtle shades and colors." Levier worked in a somewhat abstracted, cubist style. Additionally he often employed the French technique of "cloisonnism" (after the French for "partition"), a style of post-Impressionist painting with bold and flat forms separated by dark contours, also seen in this work. The term was coined by critic Edouard Dujardin on the occasion of the Salon des Indépendants, in March 1888 and was commonly used by artists like Émile Bernard, Louis Anquetin, Paul...Category
