PORTRAIT I love portraiture. This one is done from a photo; I like to work with live models as much as possible. WHAT DID YOU LEARN IN 2020 ? This illustration is for the German magazine "Freudin". The subject was: "what did you learn in 2020?". I was living in the north of England at that time, and I was lucky enough to have this greenhouse in our garden; it wasn't as lush as my drawing, but it seemed like a good subject for Covid at that time. HOTEL DE L'ABBAYE illustration of a Parisian hotel garden for the Hotel de l'Abbaye in the 6th arrondissement. Imagine customers enjoying this small haven of nature in the middle of Paris... PAINTING : This is a small painting done a few years ago, in acrylic. I'm back to painting places, portraits too, from nature; And I start to work with oil. STAY AT HOME : Covid 19 initiative, this poster made during the first lockdown; The subject "Stay at home" You can download this poster and many others, still now, on the site https://stay-sane-stay-safe.com/ THE WORLD OF INTERIORS: Drawing interiors and getting inspiration from existing places. The World Of Interiors" magazine had launched this idea of using their cover as a drawing and this one, among others, had inspired me! REASONS : Among the different clients I work with, I particularly like designs for textile/pattern prints. I designed this one for the Spanish brand ARRELS. It is declined on swimsuits for men, and very soon on summer shirts!
