"Draughtsmanship (figure drawing, cartooning) being his main focus,
Proficient in hand-drawn illustration, in freehand drawing, in traditional and digital painting and also in graphic design.
He developed a recognizable personal style and is able to emulate others.
As a craftsperson, he regards a personal, human-centered, hands-on approach as the first, last and only option in creating any form of art.
By the same method he is writing, drawing, animating and programming "Kaoshive", a video game (and graphic novel)."
Artist profile: Read a short autobiographyTen million cockroaches, snakes and centipedes in a trenchcoat. I blend in, don't worry. A craftsperson. Creative intensity. Old school visual artist, working with intention and dedication, mostly on paper. Eccentric as an artist but not inflating ego, nor narcisstic sentiments. The beast is being grabbed by the horns. WOKE. Aware. Utterly ever-curious. WHY? HOW? A loner. Does not belong. Warm enough to take the cold. Anti-thesis of a bro. European, non-smoker, sober. Working class sweating blood and is at pains to absorb and encompass academic knowledge. Information sponge. No traditional 'values', not a family person. Non-binary inwards, masculine male outwards, agender thinking. Queer. Human level. Actual humanist left. Trans-inclusive radical feminist. Taurus, earth and fire. INTJ occupying the ENTJ and in between. Lived and worked in six countries, not "well traveled" but engaged and embraced all walks of life. Making. Creating. Dancing. Dancing to old synth/post/wave material. Musician playing instruments and analogue machines. No bros, no brotherhoods, no guns, no tv, no apps, no services, no 'ai'/ no llms, no cars, no futbols, no no no. Not as expected? Neither for me but my life was a, uh, a rough ride and such rides produce specific personalities. Honesty is always beneficial. I have worked smoothly and well with all kinds of teams, after all, I have no complaints and never received it. Still looking for adventure and exploration. I am never extravagant or poetic around work but precise, let's create, let's aim and build great things! |
