Emmanuel Ronald Bertrand created his first portrait at the age of twelve. From that first tentative drawing, he developed a fascination for the arts that continues today. In early eighties he attended the Sisters of St. Ann art classes in Haiti, where he learned the basic structure of human posture and started portraiture. He enjoyed art lesson, that he started teaching the neighborhoods kids what he was learning, by creating his own painting class on his mother’s kitchen table. In Mid-eighties, while participating in a group study in high school he helped an architect student completing an assignment, there he fell in love with architecture.

After completing his high school, he migrated to the US and studied architecture. Bertrand is a graduate architect who produces art between architectural projects. He worked in several firms in Miami and Atlanta. He completed several projects throughout the southeastern of united stated and hold a general contractor license.

His work is an exploration of the endless nuances of expression found in the human face and a study of the infinite posturing of the human body adapted to these nuances. For Bertrand, each creation is an emotional endeavor that produces a stunning piece of work.

He freely experiments with various art mediums and differing subject matter to escape to a world where life is reduced to pigment and the size of his canvas. He works at his craft in taking workshops with artist such as Damon Carter, Shane McDonald, Christian Sajous.

Bertrand currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia with his lovely wife and their two daughters.

Registration for Workshop

My story

It must have been around fall 1981 when I decided to teach art to the younger kids in my neighborhood. Some of them still call me art teacher. I started by saving my allowances and gifts received around this time to buy watercolor sets and brushes. I sent a handwritten post card to all parents requesting $10 a month for art class every Friday afternoon. It was fun and I always look forward to Friday afternoon. This was my first jab at entrepreneurship.

Workshop

Now that I have a studio and have easy access to supply, I want to continue enjoying teaching painting. I am truly in the zone when I am working with friends.

All art supplies will be provided and join me in my artistic self-expression journey. I am looking forward to being with friends in the yard to do paintings just like it was 40 years ago.

So, I am inviting you to register and attend “Art in the yard”.

Konpa On Kanvas My Vision

Konpa on Kanvas is a body of work made to honor Haitian musicians. Their talents have influenced the world and elevated Haitian culture. This artistic initiative is a way to invite audiences to find a similar passion in the way I do by collecting these musicians' portraits to keep them alive in homes. The series will create a fan base for their honorary contributions to our lives.

Konpa on Kanvas is an unsolicited commission that evolves into a collaboration between two artists, the painter and the musician. Each is a limited print edition. When sold, part of the earnings goes directly to the musician. It is intended to create an ecosystem where all parties, the musician, the painter, and YOU, the art collector will benefit. Especially with the added value of an autograph from the musician.
