Computer Collage

Artwork for a D.I.Y. compilation, guess it's a Cdr format... Should be a silkscreen print in the end, that was just an attempt of doing graphics with a computer...


Shitty Murals again...

That shitty piece was done in a party held in a squatted industrial basement in Saint-Etienne.
during the night of April 22. Done in a few hours under poor conditions, poor lighting, shitty techno music, chasing off hippies who wanted to devellop the pleasure of self-expression using my brushes, drunk punks throwing bottles etc... The guy goofing around in the picture gives an idea of the dimension.


Shitty Murals

hey, seems it's time to update a lil'bit...
The paintings above were done in January 2006 in a tourist complex situated in Valfrejus, near the Italian border in the French Alps. The organizers of the event thought it could be fun to have a painting done in open-air while the freezing cold was around 15 celsius degrees below zero. Sure that was a fun experiment, that was really painful to stand still a complete afternoon under such a temperature, the tourists were nowhere to be seen, and we couldn't finish our work cos' after a few hours, the water, the paint and the brushes were completely frozen !!
As you can see on the pictures, shitty artwork done in a beautiful landscape...

Pay For Shit


The Substitute

When rioting and fucking up things just gives more credit to repressive right-wing policies...
Consequences are that more taxpayer's money will be spent in security equipment and law-enforcement programs, instead of education, heathcare, culture and public housing. Which will be giving more reasons for the neglected parts of our society to feel much more abandoned and therefore give them more reasons to riot and fucking up things...

When frustration from one side and fear from the other side play a major role in nowadays politics, here lies the XXI st Century society's project...

How can you break this endless circle of bullshit ?

Works On Paper

Some acrylics on paper, 1995.


Reconstruction

This scratchboard illustration had been done in 1997, for a CD cover featuring the latest batch of french H/C bands from those years... Unfortunately the design came out totally blurred and dirty because the record label printed it on some sort of recycled cardboard, so you can enjoy it in full detail 7 years later... Merry X-mas !!!!

baby boom/papy mood


The same ideas developped on that lil' story which touchs on the retirement pensions reform among other things. After the collapse of the welfare system that will happen in the next 20 years in Europe, it will be time to be prepared for a pretty tough future.... or to save money for a private pension fund...


Baby Boom

The fear of getting old in a violent and fucked up world....
Click on the picture to enlarge and enjoy the details of course...


Wasted Dreams

Hello, after a few months without any updates, it's time to add some more database here....
This illustration was intented for my latest painting show that took place in Albi ( south-Western France) between December 8th & December 11th for Rétine comics festival organized by the underground comics publisher 'les Requins Marteaux'. The pieces displayed on that show were mainly portraits of Asian mail-order brides. More exhibits tackling this subject matter are planned for 2006.....
