Illustration assignment in anatomy class (a scene involving a human muscle study), 2006.
I was inspired by the wonderfully disturbing animations of Don Hertzfeldt, in this case particularly "Ah, l'Amour..." [site]
watercolour and inks.
Illustration en cours d'anatomie: mise en situation d'un ecorche humain.
...J'adore le sadisme creatif et delirant de Don Hertzfeldt...

This is me rather heavily influenced by the art of Dave McKean, and inspired by one of Neil Gaiman's short stories.

Je fais du sous-Dave McKean. C'etait une experience interessante.
Joyeuse St Valentin sanguinolente!

A little comic doodled in pencil then messed about with in Photoshop. English translation can be found here
Petit comics vite fait et colorie sous Photosh... et c'est une histoire vraie...
Comic doodled this summer while working at the Chartreuse cellars. Basically one of my fellow guides was asked how the two monks who make the liqueur get down from the mountain monastery to the distillery when they are snowed in in winter. Good question, actually. But it sparked this silly, silly idea.
Une histoire de cet ete aux caves de la Chartreuse. Bonne question... comment les moines descendent en hiver? 
Another Chartreuse story.
Apologies for the small text, which is also rather full of in-jokes. Basically, just picture me taking around a group that contained a little old lady who'd done the visit several times before and seemed to make a point of spoiling my cue, telling her friends what I was meant to say, and generally annoying the heck out of me.
No, I never brained a visitor with the drinks chariot, but the mental image was much comfort at the end of the day.
Une visite que j'ai guidee a la Chartreuse, avec une gentille dame qui connaissait la visite par coeur... c'etait une habituee, et elle a ete _tres_agacante tout du long. Mais je vous rassure, le coup de chariot n'est reste qu'un fantasme.

A little doodle from this summer's trip to Ireland, coloured by mouse(!) in Photoshop
petit truc vite fait sur mon voyage en Irlande cet ete, et la Chaussee des Geants qui est absolument splendide.
Sculpture class... the idea this time was to create a hybrid animal by using the one we'd been studying earlier (that's my raven/crows) combined with one or two others. Corvus type bird + iguana = the Corguana.
Cours de sculpture : l'animal fantastique, cree a partir du melange de l'animal deja traite en cours (le corbeau) avec un ou deux autres... moi ca donnait le "Corguane".
photo reference for raven and iguana, clay sculpture approx 50cm long.

"What I did on my summer holidays" illustration assignment... in my case, working for a month as a tour guide in the Chartreuse cellars, working at home on a website commission (and flipping out with my defective stylus pen...) and then, finally, blissfully, getting away to Ireland for a 10-day trip with my best friend from the US.
Sujet d'illustration sur les vacances d'ete: travail aux Caves de la Chartreuse ( www.chartreuse.fr ), illustration d'un site web, et puis, enfin, une merveilleuse echappee en Irlande avec ma meilleure amie.
