Thus, by borrowing from the comic strips of his childhood and the paintings of the great masters which fascinate him, he has gradually developed a style where line and parody are omnipresent.

Biography
Marabout was born in 1967 on Friday the 13th! A lucky day because he showed from a young age real talent for drawing and painting.
He held his first exhibition in 1984 at the gallery Goguet in Evreux. But he followed a very different path at the beginning. In 1990, after doing some scientific studies, he became a sales engineer for a medical laboratory, always painting and organizing private exhibitions in parellel to his job.
In 2006 he completely changed his course by enrolling at the House of Artists. Since that day on, he concentrates solely on painting. His work is based in his pictorial mash ups. By using cartoons and some of the paintings of the great masters he developed a style where strokes and parodies are omnipresent. Locomotive of strip-art, he claims today the synthesis of genres.
