BENOIT GINGRAS, sculptor<\/p>\n

A good diyer, handy, after a bit of leatherwork and wooden toys, cabinetmaking was the best fit. As proof, 40 years of creating and reproducing furniture inspired by the “bibles” of Jean Pallardy “Meubles du Canada-franc\u0327ais” and also Michel Lessard and Huguette Marquis “Les antiquite\u0301s du Que\u0301bec” (The Antiques of Quebec), all these books have influenced my craft.<\/p>\n

In 2018, I closed my shop and retired with my lady to a rural area other than Shefford, where we lived for 40 years. Now settled in Bolton-Ouest, I’ve resumed woodworking through sculpture, drawing inspiration from my surroundings and beautiful nature.<\/p>\n

The pleasure of being retired is to spend Sunday in the middle of the week…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
