European comics and illustration, art nouveau, Asian art, horror movies, B-movies, animation, and all kinds of weird things.

Some people have told me that I do children’s illustration, maybe for the line or the color, but they certainly are not for children.

Strength, you can virtually do whatever you may imagine; weakness, there are many people who thinks that what we do as artists is not important.

We are all impacted by technology, with the use of software, you can create images and effects in half the time that you can with an analog technique. And of course conceptually, now we have access to many people’s work and thoughts.
