| Peace begins with a smile |
I was born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast in 1983. I studied Graphic Arts and Journalism and currently produce various illustrations, political cartoons, digital creations, portraits, caricatures, photos, and paintings.
I have collaborated with several printed magazines and papers, such as ‘La Libre Belgique’ (Belgium), ‘European Voice’ (Belgium), 'Rolling Stone' (Germany), ‘Acque & Terre’ (Italia), ‘Le Monde Diplomatique’, Polish edition (Poland), ‘Zaman’ (Turkey), ‘The Copenhagen Post’ (Denmark), ‘As-Safir’ (Lebanon), ‘Al Baath’ (Syria), ‘Europa In De Wereld’ (Holland), ‘Pulse’ (Great Britain)...
I have also worked with different online references such as ‘Media With Conscience’, ‘The peoples Voice’, ‘Rebelion’, ‘Point.e’, ‘Le Grand Soir Info’, ‘Axis of Logic’, ‘Cafe Babel’, ‘Tlaxcala’, ‘Uruknet’, ‘Quibla’, ‘Planete Non Violence’, ‘Concorde’, ‘Don Quichotte’, ‘Flesh and Stone’...
I created book covers and illustrations for renowned authors (such as James Petras, Mark Prime, Mike Palecek…). 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, Canada, USA and Palestine.

The more I see Gould portrait the more I think the blue sweater needs to be emphasized using complementary colors...it's poor if you compares it with Glenn's polychromatic face.
Am I right, Ben?

Probably is the likeness is not achieved...
I take it from your avatar and you've got really interesting face to approach on paper...
I think the best way to make a good portrait is to know the subject in many ways,not just from just one pic.
However i tried it as an fast sketch
Many thanks,you're a truly master...I even can't finished to see your gallery...terrific works,them turn my face pale...
