Workshops

Comic Book Artist for many years, I work on various albums and publishing projects, and I love sharing my passion for drawing through meetings and workshops.

I regularly lead workshops in schools, middle schools, libraries, and sometimes in companies, focusing on drawing and comic art.
These sessions are an opportunity to explore the creative process, discuss the profession, and inspire others to tell stories through images.

I also take part in numerous comic conventions and festivals across France, for book signings, live drawing sessions, and meetings with the public.

Each event is a wonderful opportunity to share the joy of drawing and comics in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere open to everyone.

I travel according to projects and requests, in accordance with the official

rates set by the Charter of Book Authors and Illustrators.

The workshops I offer are designed to introduce participants to the world behind comic creation

— from drawing to storytelling.
They are suitable for all audiences (children, teenagers, and adults) and can be adapted to any setting: schools, libraries, cultural centers, companies, or festivals.

Comics Workshops

The main stages of creation: script, layout, sketching, inking, and coloring.
The vocabulary and language of comics: panels, pages, speech bubbles, sound effects, ellipses, rhythm…
