I live in a small village in Belgium, in the Ardennes, between Liège and Bastogne. I am a naturalist and drawing is a hobby for me at this time. I’m a comic strip artist and I have a series called ‘Reptile People’, sometimes with dinosaur-like characters.
At the age of 8 I was fascinated by dinosaurs and the BBC’s recent “Walking With Dinosaurs” made me interested in ancient reptiles again. In this world of pollution, war, and destruction of nature, drawing dinosaurs in their natural environment makes me find a kind of “lost paradise”.
