Jack Vance and Spectrum 24.

Last year, I did three covers for Jack Vance's "Cadwal Chronicles" published by Spatterlight press. I am extremely honored that the third one "Throy" is also included in the new Spectrum annual.

It has been a while since I was able to post much material, partly because of my schedule, but mostly because I have been working, in the past few years, on many projects that are either still in development or otherwise unreleased. I thought it might be time to finally show some of that work so I took this opportunity to do a little clean up. I also updated and expanded several galleries in my online portfolio.
Cheers.

International Human Rights Day.

Récemment, j'ai eu l'opportunité et le grand plaisir de participer à une version illustrée de la "Déclaration Universelle des Droits de l'Homme" publiée par les éditions du Chêne. Chacun des 27 articles est illustré par un artiste différent. Les articles sont également mis en lumière et en perspective par des extraits de textes impeccablement choisis, allant de l'antiquité à la pensée politique moderne en passant par la philosophie des lumières. Le résultat est un très bel ouvrage auquel je suis particulièrement fier d'avoir collaboré. En célébration de la Journée Internationale des Droits de l'Homme, commémorant l'adoption de la déclaration par l'assemblée générale de l'ONU en 1948, voici ma contribution, illustrant l'article 17.


Recently I had the opportunity and the great pleasure to participate to an illustrated version of the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" published by Éditions du Chêne. Each of the 27 articles is illustrated by a different artist. The articles are also highlighted and put in perspective with a beautiful selection of excerpts ranging from antiquity to modern political thinking through the enlightenment. The result is a superb book on which I am particularly proud to have been able to collaborate. In celebration of the International Human Rights Day commemorating the adoption of the declaration by the UN general assembly in 1948, here's my contribution, illustrating article 17.

Merci à Jean Jullien. Il nous rappelle qu'au delà de l'horreur, il existe des hommes et des femmes qui espèrent un monde meilleur et qui résisteront par l'art, la poésie, l'intelligence et la non-violence aux bourreaux pathétiques de tous les extrémismes qui veulent faire de la vie un enfer.
