Guillaume Azoulay (Moroccan/American, b.1949), "Colere" (from the French, ;Anger;), 201/300, etching, sight: 14 x 17", frame: 30 x 34"

Guillaume Azoulay, a self-taught artist, was born in Casablanca, Morocco in 1949. His parents settled in Paris when Azoulay was ten and by the age of thirteen, he was sketching and selling his drawings on the streets and planning his career as an artist. As Azoulay met people from various parts of the world, his interest in traveling grew and when he was fourteen he left home and hitchhiked across Europe and the Middle East. His desire to see and be part of the life, history and beauty of the world took him from Copenhagen to Rome, from Lisbon to Jerusalem. Eventually, Azoulay settled in Israel in 1967, where Azoulay studied drama and graduated as an actor. After moving several times Azoulay settled in California in March of 1976 where he now lives with his family. Azoulays wife is Charmaine Seal, a noted ballerina, yet another one of Azoulays favorite subjects in his artwork. The brilliance of Azoulays art centers on his ability to convey the purity of line to create strong illusions of fluid motion and life. Line is the key element of design in Azoulays artwork. It is through his organic line that Azoulay creates balance, harmony, contrast, and the illusion of depth and movement in each one of his compositions.
