Some recent projects. I hope you find them interesting...
This is the making of some recent realistic portraits
+ some other works with my new technique: "Digital circlism"
(please, click to enlarge and get more info). I have
been working hard updating all the info associated to
my deviations and resizing most of my images, Quite boring,
but necessary. I'll start many new projects in the coming
weeks and will share them with you as soon as possible.
As always, thanks for being there, take care my friends!

All the creations in my DA gallery come from my own production. Please, do not use any of my photos/paintings/drawings for commercial purposes without my prior written consent. All of them are copyrighted and only posted at 72 dpi. Thank you.

I created book covers and illustrations for renowned authors. I also made CD covers, posters, and t-shirts designs.

In my painting, I've been deeply influenced by German Expressionism, Belgian Surrealism, American Pop Art and Social Realism.

So far, I've exhibited my creations in Belgium, Great Britain, Romania, France, Canada, USA, Germany, Brazil, Spain and Palestine.
