Paris, the city with a thousand facets

Its architecture and way of life charm people around the world. It inspires and ignites passions, even in the hearts of the French. In “Paris Watercolors,” every street corner, neighborhood, or monument becomes a work of art. Its charms are perfectly captured through the expertise and brushwork of Fabrice Moireau.

Fabrice Moireau, born in 1962, graduated from the National School of Applied Arts and Crafts. From his numerous travels, he brings back sketchbooks that serve as cultural and ethnographic testimonies. Passionate about architecture, gardens, and plants in general, his ambition is to convey, through watercolors, the subtlety of the play of light and the atmosphere of a street or landscape.
