Illustrator of non-fiction children books graduate of the decorative arts school of Strasbourg. Most of my pictures are done with Adobe Photoshop about any kind of subjetcs : dinosaurs and prehistory, sports, history, animals, architecture… through many styles : humouristic, scientific illustration, reconstructions, cut-aways,… I especially enjoy to create large sceneries full of characters and details; You can discover this work on my illustration blog :

My first steps as illustrator were watercolour sketches always done on location. 20 years later, I carry on painting that way. And in order to promote this noble and timeless style of artwork, I joined two experienced partners, to found “Boraldes", a network of professional illustrators sharing the same taste of the fieldwork. Watercolour and pencil sketches are particularly adapted for nature, tourist and heritage publishing. Have a look on our skills on our blog and FlickR Photostream :

I also work as a relief printmaker (especially japanese Moku Hanga). Enjoy your self browsing my Flickr photo stream.
