Creative Quaterly #55

Two images from my banging series of volcanoes have been chosen as Runner-up by Creative Quarterly #55 (Professional category). Both images will be posted on their online Gallery this coming Summer. 

It takes time for volcanoes to be awarded and that's completely fine.

Lecture & Master class at DADAH - Webster University

On Friday, December 8th I had the great privilege of being kindly invited by Illustrator & Designer Igor Karash and Brad Loudenback, Painter & Chair of the Illustration Department to come and present my artwork at DADAH, Webster University Department of Art, Design & Art History, in Saint-Louis, Missouri, http://www.dadahwebsteru.com/ DADAH was interested to better understand the reasons of my flexibility and freedom in style and technique while doing Comics, Illustration, etc. along with the different experiences/jobs I had such as Coordinator/Publisher/Teacher. As I have no secret… I said it all! 

the master class started with a short presentation of some originals, a demo of a few technique (as I normally do at MICA), with a particular emphasize on the gouache technique. The students were great and did really well.

The lecture took place in the auditorium Sverdrup 123 (filled on both sides by Photographs of Hollywood at the beginning of the XX century. Saint-Louis is a main place in the US for Theatre and Cinema Studies).

None of this would have been possible without the kindness and dedication of Brad Loudenback and particularly Igor Karash, my guardian angel during these few days in St. Louis (on my left  on the picture above), on the banks of the Mississippi River.  To both of them, along with Gwynn and Svetlana who have warmly welcomed me, please accept here my gratitude and my friendship.
