Fabrice Grimard is a classically trained painter devoted to the enduring disciplines of painting and drawing.


His artistic formation began at the Académie des Beaux-Arts de Montréal, where he completed two foundational years of study, before continuing at the Grand Central Atelier in New York. There, he completed the atelier’s rigorous four-year program, centered on academic draftsmanship and the principles of classical realism.


Following his studies at GCA, Fabrice spent two months in Norway studying under the renowned painter Odd Nerdrum, further deepening his understanding of composition and narrative in painting.


Fabrice’s work reflects a search for beauty as the proper organization of truths made visible.


Path by the Lake is a study made from life, painted outdoors in the cold Canadian winter, the kind of direct observation that remains at the core of his practice.
