Pierre Bédard was born on March 24, 1960 in Quebec City. His childhood was spent in Charlesbourg, a suburb of Quebec.
From an early age, he pursued an interest in drawing. Upon completing his elementary and secondary studies, he began studying Applied Arts, and guided by Gyslain Lefebvre, a well-known water-colourist, he discovered the world of arts. Already, he knew that he would devote his life to this field. Subsequently, he studied Plastic Arts at the Sainte-Foy College in order to perfect his knowledge and learn more about the most famous of artists. His passion for painting brought him to leave Quebec in 1982 to go live in the Charlevoix region, the sighting point of many artists at the time. These acquaintances encouraged him to persevere. At that point, painting became his sole daily occupation. Pierre now lives in Montreal; his work is showed in several galleries across Canada, United States, and France.
