As some of you are asking, this pages are made on @Procreate, like most of my work of the last two years, with only one brush, or to be specific, a few variations of the same brush. Let's talk about INK techniques; a thread:


Let's back to late 90's-2000 when I was at @Escolajoso , where Inking was our religion. ( yes, I'm that old ) It was all about ink, brush, dip pens and paper. Not even felt pens were allowed (that came later as a trick). The goal was to get nice and elegant lines like the masters

Then my lines, always closing the forms, were naturally transformed from thick to thinner, but always with an idea of modulated volume in my mind. I started to use a much thick paper, with some little grain. We are already on 2009. That is form 'Lydie'

At that point the 90%of the work was done on brush on semi glossy paper. There was already a nice combination of straight and curve lines and some character on them, but something was missing. ( still 'Lydie' @EditionsDargaud 2010)

So I went further. My next book ( La Mondaine )was my ALL-IN. I tried everything I got. Brushes, dip pens, white gouache, much grain paper, and some crazy stuff I won't admit here. I went mentally and economically broke to find new ways. (Do not try it alone at home, kids)

Sempé has died. 💔 No one like him has pictured the human spirit with so few lines. My all time favourite. Good by Master, Merci infiniment. 🙏
