At this time, Guy spent many days painting in the streets of Montmarte
which provided him with direct exposure to a thriving arts community. He
began painting his favorite subjects from cities and countrysides of
Europe, which would later become his trademark expression. The themes
emanating from Dessapt's lifelong passion for travel are depicted through the merging of both visual experience with a uniquely striking impressionist style. Dessapt can easily call St. Tropez, Venice, Paris
or New York City his home. In fact, for seven years in the 1960's, Guy
worked in New York and explored a variety of artistic styles and
techniques. Currently he spends most of his time living and working in
the house built by his grandfather in France with his wife and children.
Guy Dessapt has been established as a premier talent in the American
art market as well as the Asian art market. In Japan today, Guy Dessapt
is considered part of the Paris School which includes such renowned artists as
Marc Chagall, Roger Bonafe, Rouls Icart, Bernard Buffet and George Laporte. His works are highly prized by art connoisseurs worldwide.
