Together at last 3. Painting by Frank Lejeune
Frank Lejeune (1962) is self-taught and has only been working as an independent artist since he was 30. He sold his first works of art fairly quickly and then had his first exhibition at the age of 33. For Lejeune, the process of painting itself serves as inspiration, where a completed canvas can be the basis for a subsequent work.Lejeune's early work includes more shutters where horizontal color compositions shoot across several panels with spontaneous force. Later, his work becomes increasingly whimsical and horizontal line compositions give way to angular and circular motifs. The tension between color and form becomes more intense and overlapping areas of color emerge, degenerating almost into mask-like scenes. Also characteristic are the mainly primary colors yellow, red and blue.
