Live model drawing of a young woman, charcoal background erased
Hey Bluesky, I didn't post much lately but I wanted to share this charcoal art I made in live model class the other day.
I'll get back to posting more soon with Les Cendres du Nord coming out, in the meantime enjoy!

Thanks Khyron, yeah I don't know if I'd use it often outside of live model sessions, it's a great context to experiment

Arte's quality standards in terms of documentaries makes them the top channel on french tv imo. I'm excited to see the result!

Without much surprise, a lot from Les Cendres du Nord in this top, alongside a couple of teased works. I have been a lot busy these weeks so I didn't post much. But things are coming together and I look forward to what 2026 will bring!
Until then, happy new year!

Ah, thank you! I was talking with Geof Darrow the other day, he had met Corben once like 15 years ago and he told me he was a socially awkward grandpa... with a shit ton of muscles, 'cause he wouldn't stop doing exercises while drawing.
I love the idea of what he must have looked at haha.
Richard Corben too, if we had any pictures to look at

And here it goes. Last summer Eric L'Homer asked me to do the cover of his latest novel, Mon Ami Tara. It's a scifi / anticipation novel about the big tech monopoly and how they acquire control over the individuals. Here's the illustration I made!

And here's some close-up to the character of Mayn.
I'm really happy with how the face turned out, even though it's a bit stiffer than the first roughs as often.

A painting of a street barricade where peoples are standing on. Two are holding red flags and some characters are playing music on their instruments. The focus is on the main character with a top hat in the middle who play accordeon. In front of the barricade the street is flooded. The mood is like a city at night, it quite desaturated with some cyan and touch of purple.

Elena Mistrello, italian cartoonist, has been prevented by the police from entering on french soil. The cause of this brutal intervention? Her support for antifascism.
This sets a terrible precedent of punishing artists for their political opinions.
The authorities must be held accountable.

Thought Bubble day 1: met a lot of great people, had some sweet portfolio reviews, and bought too many comics.
Far too many comics.
My back is already in pain.
First time I travel back in England in a while and my first impression is, as a guy living in Belgium, it's ridiculous to see I haven't prepared any outfit for the rain. Not even an umbrella ๐
