--> Category: Thermidor, Buffon 

 
The paintings evoke feelings of another era, when life was much simpler and slower paced.
 
Thermidor, Buffon
1960-

Buffon Thermidor was born in Cap Haitian; he began painting at an early age and quickly found his own style. Thermidor depicted street and countryside scenes, focusing on geometrically precise houses.

With an impeccable appreciation for local architecture, he beautifully renders iron balconies and gingerbread as well as bare ruined walls. In his street scenes, which are his forte, the artist varies the subject with bits of action. In the foreground, we may find bicycle riders, good-natured fights, and children at play, or simply animated sidewalk conversations. The paintings evoke feelings of another era, when life was much simpler and slower paced.
