Jean-Louis,

"I love the artwork on the card by the silk painter from Quebec - the stone farmhouses of the southern townships where my grandparents grew up have always touched some deep place in me. And so I responded viscerally to this card - to how beautifully he renders the Quebequois farmhouse and all the colors of the snow. You selected the perfect card to send to me. Thank you".

A Linda's friend


Jean-Louis,

Il ressort une clarté, une régularité toute en finesse, dans le tracé de tes lignes et une sensibilité chaleureuse à travers tes tons chauds, qui parlent de toi avec éloquence. Dommage que je ne puisse pas voir de près comment le support que tu utilises a embrassé ta conception artistique. Ton choix de canevas me parle de délicatesse, la soie est un matériau fragile et si doux.

Jean-Louis,
I received the most beautiful painting yesterday afternoon!

Jean-Louis the painting is so much more beautiful in person!!!! You have
great control over your resists and your lines are so fine and well thought
out. Don and I are both in love with the painting. Don was standing in front
of the painting last night in the living room and I was in the kitchen, I
heard him say "This is good" then a pause and "Wow, this is really good!"

Be Well Jean-Louis.
Blessings,
Linda And Don

Monsieur Mireault,

Je viens de voir quelques-unes de vos créations sur le site dharmatrading.com, de peinture sur soie, naturellement.
C’est super! Avez-vous un site web ou une date prochaine d’exposition dans la région de Mtl ou en Outaouais?

Tout simplement magnifique! J'aime vraiment beaucoup - quel beau site aussi!
Et j'ai bien apprécié le lien vers le site de Mme Whitwort. Quel talent!
Très cordialement,
Renée Annetta Dufour, Gatineau, Québec

Dear Jean-Louis
I have been interested in silk paintings and find your work facinating. I love the way you capture colour and scenery. wouldn't mind if you would include me in your mailing list of new works. I am from Sri Lanka.

Dear Jean-Louis:

Your art is beautiful, and your bright colors were a comfort to me. I appreciate your comments on Yahoo Silk painters Group as much as your devotion to your art. If I have not said it before, I think your art is joyful, beautiful and the colors scintillating. The Silk Painting Group offers so much support, advice and technical instruction. It is a wonderful thing. Have you ever thought about being a member of the UN? You seem to have all the makings of a first-class diplomat.

Jean-Louis,
I took a peek at your cards. Extraordinary. I had no idea that such exquisite
detail could be captired in silk.
Not Van Gogh in Arles, but the compositions of Gauguin in Brittany comes to
mind... it is more useful to be remembered for one's work while one is alive,
n'est-ce pas?
Happy Holidays to you all!!
Maureen Hurley in SF

Jean-Louis,

je suis allée sur ton site. C'est tres joli!!!

Florence Issac, France


Jean-Louis

was a joy to look at!!! Your detailed drawings on your work was outstanding, I do mainly freeform, more like your shirts and ties.

Kaala, from Yahoo Silk Painters Group


Jean Louis,

your work is exceptional! Thank you for all the sharing and encouragement you give to the group as well.

Jean-Louis,

Congrats on your show and good luck on the next one also. It is so very much fun selling painted silks. Silk is so beautiful and light. It's a pleasure both to paint and sell. It also makes such a nice and special gifts. Your art is beautiful, and I know you'll do well.

Jean-Louis,
La présente est pour te féliciter pour tes oeuvres. J'adore le choix des couleurs. Des couleurs très riches et éclatantes. Les titres sont également très poétiques et à eux seuls permettent l'évasion vers un sujet bien concret de notre culture. Je cherchais dans le généalogie des Mireault et je suis "tombé" sur ton site. Heureuse découverte. J'aimerais bien me procurer un de tes tableaux plus particulièrement représentant une scène à la campagne avec de la neige et des animaux. Bravo encore pour tes très beaux tableaux.
André Mireault, L'Épiphanie, Québec

Dear Jean-Louis,
My name is Gypsy, I am new to silk painting and have very much appreciated all the posts here to learn from.
I live in Washington State, United States and find your translated poetry of 'The kiss", one of your artworks, to be beautiful !! Thank you! It touched my heart, and I was compelled to reply.
Sincerely,
Gypsy


Dear Jean-Louis.

I am sooooooooooo excited!!!Thank you so much for your reply and advice. Your website is beautiful and your resume
fantastic.An amazing thing happened. I touched the brush to the silk and I was in love.

So in love, that I boxed everything else I have up and bought every supply I needed to do silks full time. I have
never been this impulsive in my whole life...but I am sooooooooooo
excited!!!
I wanted to tell you this story, so you knew how important this advice was
to me. I am really stepping out on a limb because I have put a lot of time
and effort into establishing myself in other mediums and now I am sort of
throwing it all away. The funny thing is...for me...I don't feel like I'm
throwing anything away, instead I feel reborn!
Wish me Luck!!!
Blessings,

Shawn from Florida


A bit beyond...

Bonjour, Jean-Louis!
I would like to note the exquisite complexity of the painting with the red tulips. It is a little bit beyond what many of the other paintings I've seen on the internet have done. Sometimes I worry my judgement is skewed by viewing on the computer rather than in person, but I was confident enough of this comment to write it down.
Great job!
Be well,

Monsieur Mireault,

Encore bravo

Hello, Jean-Louis Mireault.
It is healthy, that you participate in an exhibition. Your artwork hangs at my home. I show it to my visitors, it is pleasant for all. I once again have looked yours web site. I can only once again tell, that your village landscapes are remarkable.
All the best!
Tanya Shalaeva from Russia.

Dear Jean-Louis,

I am very impressed with the scope of your work and wonder what medium you use for your silk paintings. I am using dyes and paints, but can't decide which to stick with. The various dyes seem to blend more easily and almost paint themselves, whereas the paints allow for more control. Your landscapes are so very detailed, I would assume that paints were used. Of course, I would be very appreciative for any information you wish to disclose. At this moment , I am facing a fresh white piece of silk, needing a choice of medium and subject to get started. It is tempting to want to try a detailed painting , but scary at the same time, knowing I am a more chaotic painter. Thanks for any help! I love to look at your work!!!!!!

Dear Mr. Mireault:
I found your work on the website Guild of Silk Painters, and I am very impressed with your skill and artistry. I have a fine craft, fine art online website. I am based in Florida, in the U.S.A.. I formerly owned three fine art, fine craft retail galleries in South Florida, one of which was on prestigious Las Olas Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale. I am interested in adding a section on silk painting to my site, and I would like to invite you to participate. Yours truly, Nancy Goldberg, President Creative Inspirations, Inc.

Jean-Louis,
I had a look to your website; well you are an expert in using gutta. My gutta comes with blobs and lines.
Wish you could teach me! But you are too far away. I admire your technique and work.
Happy painting,

Monsieur Mireault,
Votre exposition à Contrecoeur est à voir absolument. Il n'y a rien comme la vision directe des oeuvres. Mais il est très intéressant de pouvoir accéder à des images en ligne. Merci pour cette grande paix qui régne dans vos toiles. Quelle fraîcheur. Louise Tremblay

Jean-Louis,

Absolute Art is really working! Very nice place to visit. You are the great Mireault's Artist.

Ferd Mireault


Hi Jean'Louis

Your work is inspirational! I love your choice of compositions & the colours are amazing. I have been painting on silk with French dyes, using resist, since 1975 and have also shown my work at various galleries here on Vancouver Island, B.C. I was wondering why you are not a member of the Federation of Canadian Artists as I am considering applying for membership and was wondering if they don't consider our medium an art form? Also the use of watercolours on silk is facinating. Do you still use resist and do you eliminate steaming by using watercolours? Also I was wondering why you describe your work as textile? Thank you inadvance for any reply you might have time to send me. Again keep up the marvelous work, it's very inspiring! Sincerely

Rhonda Deering


Jean-Louis,
I like your fine work.

James
