Une mécanique

Petite update dans mon portfolio. Des recherches faites en mars dernier sur le personnage de giant jack, pour la pochette du prochain album de dyonisos "la mécanique du coeur". J'ai été envoyé sur des pistes qui n'étaient pas les miennes sans retours précis sur ce que je proposais. La liberté que je pensais avoir s'est peu à peu restreinte, j'ai fini par laisser tomber. Avorté très tôt, donc, dommage j'étais très motivé...Vous pouvez voir une sélection de croquis en cliquant ici.
An update on my portfolio. Some researches I did last march on a character, for the cover art of the next dionysos album, "la mécanique du coeur". I thought I could be a little bit free, but I was little by little asked for things that were not personnal. I finally gave up. You can see a selection of sketches clicking here.

2013

Have a yummy 2013 everyone!  The original painting was made for my friends Suzanne and Max's little girl, Lulu, who likes red&blue monsters, to hang in her room. Véro made an other picture with the other half of her name to hang next to it. Being a lazy and shameless animal, I've reused the monster for my New year card...

Révolution!

Illustrations pour une affiche en sérigraphie, exposée lors du festival Fumetti à Nantes le week end dernier, organisé par les copains des ateliers Radar et Vide cocagne . Chacun des treize illustrateurs invités devaient réaliser une image d'après une phrase s'inscrivant dans une histoire dont on ne savait rien d'autre que notre propre portion, comme un cadavre exquis. L'affiche finale se composant d'une élévation et d'une partie montage pour réaliser la petite scène en volume, telle les activités d'écoliers d'antan.  Le beau montage final de l'affiche a été réalisé par les copains Radar. Merci à eux pour ce super projet! This is a screenprint poster I did for an exhibition in Nantes (France) for a comic and illustration festival this past week end, organised by my good friends from Atelier Radar . This is part of a series where each of the thirteen illustrators had to illustrate a sentence, part of a bigger story, but without knowing it all, a bi...

Laika's "The Boxtrolls"

Image
Hello to those who still hang around here, despite the lack of updates...again. Since the begining of the year, I've been really busy with my personal life, including an upcoming house move, and working on projects I won't be able to show anything from before a few more years (this is one of the thing about working in animation). I'm so busy that I don't really have free time to draw for myself. But it will change before the end of the year, eventually. I shall then move to tumblr to keep up with the modern world. Anyway, yesterday was released the teaser for Laika's next feature, "The Boxtrolls", on which I've worked as a character designer early on, in 2010-2011. I'll be able to show some of it after it comes out...in a year (By that time, I'll have 4 years old drawings to show...haha!). It's been interesting to see what stayed of my work, what's gone, what changed and how it has evolved into these beautifully animated puppets that th...
