About Me

... I'm a CG artist, character designer & illustrator,
living in France. Yeah, France ! Country of food,
culture, aim low, etc...
You can see more of my works on my website (www.e338.com)
Frog Yakuza on his way.
I've created an accurate (unfortunately) digital double
of myself, in order to design and visualize a tattoo
I had in mind since ages.
You can see more of the process on the following
CG TALK link. (HERE) The real tattoo is on its way. So far I've spend 15h
suffering the needle and it should be finished in April.
This is a very important step for me as a graphic artist,
and this whole process represents the first stage of
some kind of "rebirth", call it like you want.
This won't stop here that's for sure.
Here is a quick overview of my illustration works.



People (friends) say that I'm a bit of a workoholic,
with a tendency to anger and unsatisfaction...
But i'm working on the anger thingy. Doctor says I'm OK now.
This appart, i'm pretty happy doing what i'm doing and
from time to time,when it comes to human relationships
(human what??), well, i can be damn fun.

Oh, yeah, by the way. I've got an online shop !
If for some reason you like the stuff you're seeing here,
feel free to have a look and buy some! Mmmmm.
There are Tshirts, silkscreen prints, and some original
artworks as well.

The following picture will be available in duotone
silkscreen print in late november !!!
Since I work with digital tools, the notion of "original"
is a bit tricky to visualize.
Basically there is only ONE artwork per image.
The ARTWORK consists in a high quality print on canvas
lined on a wooden frame with acrylic or oil touch ups
collages, varnish, cuts, background work, etc...
Then I do variations, transposed pictures into
silkscreen, in small quantities. Depending on the
success of the image, reeditions can be made.
BUT STILL there won't be any other artwork release
of the same image.
Here is the ORIGINAL ARTWORK of the previous pict.
COQ LE NOIR is a graphic novel I've worked on with my
soul brother BOLINO. So far it's only available in french
but the english translation should be completed soon.
The pitch is the following:
Betrayed by the woman he loves, Stéphane Lecoq is
obsessed with revenge. From Paris to Port-au-Prince,
caught between mental confusion and voodoo rituals,
he's just bought a one way ticket to hell.
Brutal, haunting and uncompromising, COQ LE NOIR
is a nightmare you will never awake from.
Ok. One more quick gallery and I let you go.
