Maurice Wyckaert was a Belgian artist. He is a neo-expressionistic, lyrical abstract painter, gouache designer and printmaker. He was educated at the Academy of Brussels and in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode and the Vrije Atelier of Woluwe-Saint-Lambert. He debuted with wonderful expressionistic still life, reminiscent of Jean Brusselmans. Much early work dealt with stills of vegetables. Later Wyckaert became interested by William Turner and James Ensor and their ideas of luminism.
