From comics to art

From comics to art

My old man too lived by images. His media was comic strips –well, graphic novels, as it was more realistic than comic. He never considered himself an artist, but just a storyteller, and an illustrator of the world of motorsports. In order to be published in comic books, his artwork was scaled down. What a shame. Today, we’re trying the opposite. Blow them up. The result is amazing, and his talent is now roaring. Vrooaaw !
