Jumping Jack runs from the angry giant
What does it feel like when one has to run to save your life when somebody or something is chasing you? Your heart is thumping like a steam express train, and you are breathing in large gasps. This in a way describes my feelings when as a little boy I first read the story of Jack and the beanstalk. I was mentally cheering Jack in his escape from the angry giant who has just discovered the loss of the magic hen that laid the golden eggs. We can see this event in the many illustrations published over a large period of time produced in the various publications of story books for children evoking an excitement of the danger and the fortunate escape of Jack in the mind of child reading the story.

Artist and Printmaker After art school came to Paris in the early eighties where for 10 years worked at the well known Stanley William Hayer's printmaking studio for contemporary viscosity etchings and engravings the *Atelier 17*. Now have moved to Angers in the famous valley de Loire and have set my own indépendant atelier where I do mostly digital paintings and also developed a new technique for prints based on new media and using of the chine collé method. The latest works too are in the New Media method but without the chin collé.
