About The Artwork

I’ve been sketching people on the Paris metro and RER since 2006. I’m using a Japanese pen brush with a black ink cartridge. I’m watching people trapped in the metro and drawing them swiftly as they are getting on, sitting, standing, phoning, getting out, listening to music, reading, talking, day dreaming, looking at me and mostly running away from communication. I’m spying and stealing things. I don’t want to compose a picture; I’m drawing what is in front of me. I have to be quick, relying on my memory when necessary. Sometimes it can be funny, like here. It's always fascinating, especially when people are trapped on a train for some time. Many of these paintings have since been bought by international and French collectors.
