“Ladouceur is one of a group of Canadian artists, including former members of Winnipeg's Royal Art Lodge, whose primary medium is drawing and whose work is marked by "lowbrow" sensibilities, a Dadaistic fondness for absurdity, small-scale handmadeness, and imagery that seems to spring, surreal and unfettered, directly from the unconscious. Such work stands in pendulum-swing opposition to the large-scale, theory-driven, photo-based work of the previous generation.”

“My first thought was of Paul Klee, that kind of love-at-first-sight allure, seductive hand-madeness and unfiltered accessibility, only bigger and stronger.”
