Portraits of Famous People as Children

Edith Piaf as a child

I recently discovered Louis Boudreault in Iles de la Madeleine a la Cafe de la Grave. I recognized his work, as I had seen it once previously in a gallery in the Westmount area of Montreal. Boudreault uses a mixture of painting and drawing to recreate people like Andy Warhol, Edith Piaf, John F. Kennedy and Einstein as children. It is interesting to see the innocence and wonder in their eyes, knowing the impact they would later have on our lives. Here is a link that features some of his work.
