Discover the contemporary work of EtiennWaldt
I was born in Brive-La-Gaillarde in the southwest of France.
I grew up in Paris in the 17th arrondissement.
I took art classes at the private MJM Graphique design school in République.
Then drawing, watercolor, and airbrush courses over the years to perfect my knowledge
A graphic designer and illustrator for around thirty years, I decided to bring my traditional creative soul back to the forefront, far from digital.
Since 2020, it has seemed obvious to me to express my feelings and emotions through the creation of drawings and illustrations. My goal is to convey a message that is certainly intellectual but also psychological and poetic. To transmit or share what our thoughts lead us to be, or not to be. You will often find faces of children who represent our inner child. The one who sometimes slows us down or propels us. Trees and plants that are loaded with symbols and remind us that my last name means forest in German. My current favorite technique is ink and/or felt pen in a black and white treatment.
