Bounty killer.....

Watercolor... hard to tame! but so liberating.....

Rodolphe in action.....

...et oui; footage inedit du maitre en action.....

Bon , ben , voila.....

i whish i was i pirate.....
no comment....

Tres brigante !!

Rodolphe , is it OK to put old crappy drawings on the blog , right?!

Hibernation mode.....

The winter seems to hit the city of angels , finally!!
it will be time for crepes , drawing nights and laughters...more to come!

oldie...

My tiger 2....

I'm rusty....long hours at work! so laying down on fresh grass, against the stomach of a gentle tiger, seems like a good time to me....

..........back on track soon..........

Everyone' schedule (hehe) is still a little messed up. But the Sketch Sessions will have to resume soon.

Tomorrow, we are having a mini Comicon at the studio, with plenty of

stuff from some of us. I will be selling some of my sketchbooks.

I think Christophe will have a bunch of prints there too.

And there will be an exhibition of collectable artwork from famous illustrators too.

I will be sharing my most beloved Oliver Hurst illustration , among some Adam Hughes pages and one of Denis Bodart' s illo for Spirou.

I heard J.Katsenberg will be sharing his collection too.............

I will post pictures.

In the mean time, let me share yesterday's page from the book.

r.

.......kind of an update....

We unfortunately haven't been able to keep our sessions happening as much as we wanted.

It will soon be corrected, once we all get our shit together, but in the meantime, i am taking this opportunity to share and tease about what i have been drawing mostly recently.... A graphic novel masterly written by the brilliant Wilfrid Lupano. So , yes, my drawing "without a cause" habits have been somewhat suffering, but i am enjoying every single (too rare) moment i spend illustrating Wilfrid' s vision.

Here are a couple of sample pages....

Oh and also, our almost regular session member Pierre "Anny Award" Perifel has just created his own blog.

Check it out! That dear friend is also one one my favorite artist.

pas de chichi.....

A pretty old drawing that make me smile...yes, i have simple pleasure! whatever.....

very small April 6th session...

My cowgirl for the DB monthly thread.....

Chris' little humble sketch in the low corner...

freaking poser

Chris finds the inspiration everywhere.....

February 28th Session.

Sorry for the few missed updates, guys and gals.

Everyone was quite overloaded to attend anything fun or social at night....

But we had a minimal little session with Chris then nevertheless....

Christophe always makes fun of my very crappy little camera, but i enjoy shots like this one.

I am trying to do a commission with a lot of weight upon (breast cancer) , and keep failing at

being a good enough illustrator for the purpose. I keep drawing the same idea and then toss it

because my skills are plain amateurish........

.......but i do like that shot of that little sketch.....

There is another thing, other than dear friends, pizzas, wine, beers and laughters, that i really like about those sessions, is getting those kinda shots from my stupid crappy very portable little camera...

Chris.

Chris' awesomeness in the making.

Chris' awesomeness in one page!!!

An attempt at sketching for the DrawingBoard's monthly Girl thread (Irish gals), but not

satisfying . Too cliche, too lame.

Another to dwell upon for the thread. There's a hint of an idea, somewhat a few yards away from the usual cliches, with a hint of a story..... I might go further with this.

Another Irish sketch for the occasion. Nothing new or innovative, but trying to get those

strong bar lines across for better comp' and framing.

Oh, yes, i do love Ireland and Irish girls.

I have a few other ideas for illos that i must find time to serve rightfully , if only to celebrate

the brilliant sense of humour from my Irish girl friends.

27th January 2010

A little quiet session with Chris.

something from another session than i finally scanned tonight....

i admit to be fond of that shot...... I like the composition

with Chris tightly fitted into the upper right corner, with

the strong directing vertical and diagonal lines ....

The focus seems to be on the beer though......
