Warren, cartoonist 🇫🇷

♥ Do you remember your first aesthetic shock?
The architecture in big cities like Paris, Rome, New York. The view of Central Park from the towers, St Peter’s Basilica, the gardens of the Royal Palace.

♥ The artist you would like to meet? What would you say to him?
Bansky! especially since I know who he is… I admire his work that always denounces with subtlety.

♥ What is your favourite colour?
Blue, the softness of a blue sky or the brightness of a sunny sea. The depth of a Majorelle blue always nice to combine with other brighter colours like yellow.

♥ Which museum gives you the greatest emotion? Why?
The Dali museum in Figueiras, for its architecture, its beautiful jewels, its so original works. i also like very much the contemporary collection of the Pompidou museum and the view on Paris from the roof.

♥ Which piece of art would you buy without hesitation if you had an unlimited budget?
A large format of Kandinsky’s “Yellow, Red, Blue” or an original by Keith Haring.

♥ In which city do you feel happiest? Why do you think so? Share your 3 favourite places.
In the Cyclades islands in general, I had a wonderful holiday there. The weather was perfect in the summer with a little wind, the food is very good, the landscapes are breathtaking, the people are very friendly. For addresses, I would say Sarakiniko on the island of Milos or the town of Parikia on the island of Paros.

♥ What book keeps you up all night?
Luca Di Fulvio’s The Dream Gang.

♥ What are your biggest sources of inspiration?
Museums, old cartoons, song lyrics.

♥ What’s the funkiest thing you’ve done in your life?
I’ve been snow scooting and dog sledding in Lapland in glorious weather. I cycled 500km in 5 days from Paris to Mont St Michel, swam with giant turtles in Martinique and Brazil.

♥ What is your definition of happiness?
For me, happiness is about enjoying doing something that makes us feel good. Spending time with the people you love, trying to pursue your dreams as much as possible.
