GIBEAUX VINCENT _

Born in 1972. Lives and works in Le Havre, Normand , France.

His work is shown since 1973 at the Galerie Hamon.

Self-taught artist, Vincent Gibeaux uses Rotring China Ink pens for their meticulous precision.

He started creating his imagininative calligraphies as a teenager being influenced by fantasy fiction writers such as Lovecraft and Tolkien and combines this childhood imagination, finesse and patience in his work..

Extravagant stories are told in minute details, intertwining colours, old stamps placed in the corners of his canvas, such is the scene the spectator sees amongst the crooked houses and buildings, sharpened teeth and robots in the centre of the story.
