Jean-Luc Beaufils, born on February 18, 1953, is a French painter with a unique artistic journey and a deeply personal visual universe. The son of architect Jean Charles Louis Beaufils, he discovered his passion for drawing and color at an early age. By the age of four, he was already developing an artistic sensibility shaped by observation, structure, and visual expression.

In the 1970s, he began creating his first works—spontaneous, vibrant pieces infused with a freehand gesture and a vivid palette. His style is characterized by expressive geometry and dynamic compositions, often centered around stylized figures, everyday scenes, or poetic abstractions. His influences are wide-ranging, from Cubism to the avant-gardes of the 20th century, though his work remains free from the constraints of any single movement.

Working from his studio, Jean-Luc Beaufils continues to paint with the same freedom and energy. His art—both accessible and subtle—reflects a vision of the world in which color, form, and movement are the true languages of emotion.
