Hi,I'm a French professionnal comic book artist, as well as wood carver and part-time musician. To this day, I've seen 14 of my graphic novels published by different editors, and some of these books have been published in Spanish, German and American versions. I've made a lot of posters for concerts, exhibitions and other events. I've had stories published for 11 years in the French magazine L'Echo Des Savanes and, looking back at it, I can say that working for a big mainstream editor was no fun at all! I also participated, along with my friends of the Organic Comix team, in the making of REPTILE, an underground comics magazine. Some of the stories I created for Reptile will soon have an internet diffusion (especially a whole 50-page graphic novel titled "SPACEBABY").

People interested in my work will easily understand that music and drawing are completely interlaced in it. From the demonic sexy junglebeat of the Cramps, to the monolithic drone'n'roll of the Black Angels, music has always been the hidden vibration in my comic books stories. It doesn't mean that if you don't know anything about those bands ( mostly wild American psychedelic Rock'n'Roll ), you won't fully appreciate my work. But if you like them, it may help to understand it the way that it should. And, sure enough, I wouldn't have done this kind of comics without listening to and playing Rock'n'Roll. So anyway , if you like stories about prehistoric girls riding dinosaurs, drunken pirates, nasty Parisian witches and electro dancers possessed by extraterrestrial entities, my comic books should be some interesting places for you to visit...

Being born in the South West of France, a place worldly known for cave paintings, I've been since my childhood fascinated by anything prehistoric, and, in my vision, there's is a tight connection between that and Rock'n'Roll, and drawing comics. But in a way that may be too long to explain. Name it primitivism, name it twisted sensuality, but don't name it too much... Instead, check my wood carvings, because they are just another way to say the same thing...
