Robert Deschenes [Certified Visual Artist – Quebec, Canada]
Robert Deschenes is a Side Arts Certified Visual Artist from St-Hubert-de-Riviere-du-Loup, Quebec, Canada.
A self-taught painter specializing in animal art, Robert Deschenes creates his works using either watercolor or acrylic, choosing his medium based on his mood or the subject at hand. His art, rooted in hyperrealist techniques, demands meticulous attention to detail to faithfully capture the essence of his subjects, including their anatomy, natural habitats, and behaviors.
A significant part of his creative process involves in-depth research, drawing from books, the internet, personal observations in nature, and photographs he takes to ensure every aspect is accurately represented. Each piece begins to take shape in his mind months in advance, inspired by his time spent observing wildlife. Once ready, he strives to translate this mental image onto the canvas with precision. The process always starts with a highly detailed drawing of the subject, followed by careful consideration of composition to bring his vision to life.
