    I remember showing your work to my then girlfriend and being so amazed about the work it takes to make these! Is there anywhere you explain each part of the pieces (as in meaning/inspiration)? I’d love to read about it

      as it is above all a graphic work I am a little reluctant to explain everything because it kills the mysterious aura. But I did it for this one because it is the most scientifically based of all my engravings : here is the explanatory sheet :)

        Thank you so much for sharing! And don’t worry, it’s not any less interesting to me now that there is an explanation, quite the opposite really.

        Keep it up man, I hope I can buy a piece from you someday! Cheers

    This the type of shit that survives the apocalypse and forms the core of a wasteland religion. Excellent work

      hahahaha, thanks a lot ! I have to think about engraving this on rock, it will have a better chance of surviving a cataclysm.

      I may have said this before but your works remind me of the Voyager Golden Records

      yep, exactly, it’s a bit of my common thread since I started. the gold ink also contributes quite a bit :)

    I think I’ve mentioned previously, but these really are beautifully done. So nicely balanced and composed. Thanks again for sharing :)
