Discover the contemporary work of Daniel HUARD
In the 90s, in evening classes, student at the Ecole Municipale Camille-Claudel, formerly the Nantes-Saint-Nazaire School of Fine Arts.
I paint in acrylic on canvas in the studio, but I prefer watercolor drawing "on location", outdoors (seascapes, landscape and built heritage, etc.),
I compete during painting days organized in the Grand-Ouest where I have, moreover, regularly been award-winning.
For nearly 25 years, I have participated in regional fairs, personal and collective exhibitions (including 4 times as guest of honor).
Recently, a Biscuit Factory on the Guérande Peninsula selected around twenty of my watercolors to illustrate their regional metal boxes (sugar box format).
