Poustagoul

Poustagoul Drawing is a little magic. As far as I can remember, I have always been drawing. I was a very young child and I always had pens and paper sheets in my pockets.

I was quiet a good cartoonist. I drew animals, houses and characters with the innocence of naive painters. I knew that I could get pleasure in this distraction: it gave me joy and when I was sad, I was not drawing, I was drying my tears. Soon I understood that this ability could also be a weapon against those who irritated me. I could draw their faces in a cruel satiric way. I first discovered the

power I had in my hands. I could frighten the badboys, I could caricature my teachers, I could make laugh my school girlfriends. I was always reading cartoons and loved particulary Franquin, Gotlib, Francisco Ibanez, Uderzo and many more. I drew parodic cartoons with a friend of mine who was a very talented drawer. He showed me heroic fantasy cartoons and I first discovered the amazing world of Frank Frazetta who is the most talented painter in heroic fantasy. My parents proposed me to study in an art school but I didn’t want to earn money only with my drawings, so I refused. Was it a good or a bad decision ? It’s now too late to regret it, I just have to assume. I left my pens during a few years for I was only living for my job. I loved girls, I love their bodies and I tried to draw nude models as I could see in Luis Royo or Aslan’s works and the beautiful 50’s pin-ups (Gil Elvgren, Earl Moran or Zoé Mozert). I did enjoy drawing nude models but I was not completely satisfied of my work. I hadn’t any technicity, so I tried to learn, taking evening lessons. I have always been trying to reproduce my models with a perfect precision. I couldn’t stand my teacher who didn’t teach me any technicity. She loved colours and I don’t understand anything in colours. I want to reproduce reality, she thought that it is not interesting. She wanted to make me love the abstract art and I don’t care about it. I love Claudio Bravo or Da Vinci sketches, I also love Delacroix, Ingres or Daumier. I think my favorite painter is Norman Rockwell. At least I found myself a technic that I am still using now, using a rubber and a soft paintbrush and the result is quiet the one I always wanted to get to. I am not an artist. Artists create, I am only a fine copier. My only merit is to be self-taught, and to have discovered by myself a personnal technic. I hope you will enjoy my drawings.

Marrant! Un vieux carton plein d'esquisses, des brouillons, des études non abouties, des nus maladroits, des portraits dérisoires. Et pourtant, j'hésite encore à les jeter.🤔

Portrait d'Alice Sethe - Théo VAN RYSSELBERGHE
Musée Maurice Denis - St Germain en Laye.
Ce grand tableau est un extraordinaire portrait qui vous saisit par sa beauté. En s'approchant on peut voir la minutie du dégradé de couleurs en style pointillisme. C'est absolument époustouflant.
