One of Charles Guillaud’s strengths is to paint vibrant and animated landscapes, where man always has his place. When he stops to paint a scene one can hear the personalities laughing, singing and moving.
Life appears to be suspended for an inner truth. Guillaud paints what he feels and the sensations are what he perceives. His paintings move, cry out, sing and are full of life. How can one fail to be taken by the turbulence of his clouds and his skies? How can we not equally enjoy his personalities at a carnival or a party? How not to smell the fresh grass and the dew, together with his scenes of walkers





Charles Guillaud’s painting shows great sensitivity, aided by powerful brushstrokes. One takes away with one the burning recollections of life itself.
Painter of the Earth, he knows how, as few do, to make us become sensitive to the grandeurs of nature. Gullaud knows at the same time how to look and how to understand: his landscapes are true to life: the mists of the northern coasts have the smell of the sea; the scorching Spanish sun dries our throats; the subtle light of Tuscany leaves us a feeling of peace and the richness of the landscapes of Beaujolais and their scatting skies takes us with them.
