Freelance graphic designer since 2000. Web interfaces, logos and illustrations are my favourite activities.

How did you get into Graphic Design?
May be the power of creation, give life to ideas which are jammed in my head

For professional porfolio, you can write to me.

Who’s your hero?
Unmistakably Leonardo da Vinci ! He considers creation as a whole : painting, music, technic, medicine, etc… there is no frontier ! I’m sad to see these spheres are so closed today…

The most important aspect of design is…………?
Give life to ideas. It’s a fantastic tool to print your own trace on the wall of the cave

If you were king of the world for one day you would…………..?
Food and water for all. The rest is not my business !

Whats your favourite OLP entry (excluding your own)?
It’s hard to say, but I think “Think Spreadshirt” by Inadimova is a very strong design. But I hope too I am wrong, and my design is the best entry lol !
