Manon Potvin
Born in Montreal and living in Magog since May 2000, Manon Potvin was officially launched in the adventure of painting in 1992. The Surreal style was already part of her first painting. Imagination, inspiration, and intuition guide me gently towards a better understanding of life. I express my wonder of life through my paintings.

The International Academy of Fine Arts of Quebec
Manon Potvin is a member of the International Academy of Fine Arts since 2012. This association aims public recognition and promotion of visual artists. By an international philosophy, it is the artists from around the world that are included in this mission. Through virtual courses, the Academy educates the public about the painting as she teaches art lovers and investors with a way to analyze the tables. The mission of the Academy of Fine Arts is to offer an invitation to Québec and foreign galleries to visit the website of the Academy to discover painters and sculptors of all genres, styles, and schools.
