I was born in Toulouse, France.
I'm living with my wife Severine, and my 3 years old son Augustin, in Chambly, a little town near Paris.
I draw since I'm very very young and I learned from books, people I met and a lot of practice.
I've done a lot of works until I feel ready for an artist's carrier, and I begin to use my art with Stywox where Iv'e done some designs and illustrations.
After that I've worked for Visiware from 1996 to 2000 where I've done some character designs, and a lot of background and character textures (Photoshop and Painter help me a lot for that).
2001, 2002 : I worked for Delphine Software, where I made character designs ,textures and modelisations.
2003, 2004 I worked for Quantic Dream, and I've done a lot of character's textures and some character modeling.
2004, I worked on a comics named Apostasy ((the project is on standby, because I've no news from the scenarist).
2005 I have done character and background designs for White Birds and Nadeo. Comics cover and Illustrations for some books and a short movie. I've also made concept arts for Asylum entertainment and colored Paradise a book from Benoît Sokal and Brice Bingono.
