COMICS – Pulp at the Ferme de Buisson

It was two years ago that I visited the Pulp comics exhibition at the Ferme de Buisson, just outside Paris.

I had recently decided to resume a full-scale reflection on the art of comics. Composition, colour, depth, colour choices but above all the aspects of narrative sequencing. Great inspirations (and a bit of envy), from Catherine Meurisse to Alberto Breccia, from the art of printing, inseparable from the creative process, to the feminist humour of Posy Simmons.

Travel sketchbook workshop – the Mali

This is the drawing I made during the interesting workshop held by my friend and fellow artist Barnaba Salvador, an expert watercolourist and traveller, to learn more about techniques for making travel carnets

A connoisseur of African lights and cultures, he accompanied us on a discovery of MALI, with a montage of different views from different distances: a mosque, a pirogue and a close-up view of a woman wearing large gold wedding earrings. The images treated in watercolour and finished with retouches in pen and Indian ink are then accompanied by written information. There is a good reflection of the distribution of the written parts and the composition of the picture.

The workshopg was organised by the very active ONDA CREATIVA association in Padua, of which I am a member and at which I offer my WEBINARS on art history and drawing in Italian and French.

The work, inspired by Jean Cocteau’s Beauty and the Beast, seeks to evoke a sense of magic and enchantment. While the film refers to Gustave Doré and Johannes Vermeer, the artist has found inspiration in a random selection of images from a book on gardens, reminding us that nature, in which the female figures wander, is the real protagonist. The black and white ink work mixes the images in a positive and negative geometry.
