About the artist
Yvan Dufour - Wildfowl carving
Yvan Dufour
Yvan Dufour was born in Saint luce-sur-mer, Quebec in 1947 and now lives in Laval, Quebec. Drawing, painting and woodcarving began as a simple hobby but subsequently became his passion. Particularly intrigued by wildfowl, he has expanded his woodcarving repertoire to include ducks, raptors as well as a wide variety of North American birds. Over the years, his pieces have become a reflection of his personality. He has participated in numerous contests in Quebec and in the United States, where he has received several awards and honours for the quality, accuracy and realism of his works. In recent years, he has had the opportunity to teach the subtleties and secrets of sculpting to others for whom sculpting is a passion. Whether they are beginners or established artists, they are all seeking techniques with which to improve and master this form of art. From hummingbirds to eagles, wild fowls provide Yvan Dufour with a multitude of subjects to create art pieces that reflect his talent and passion.
