Eric Wallis, 1968 | Ballet dancers

"I love the movement and anatomical definition that dancers have characteristically. There is power in their bodies that they use to convey beautiful grace and emotional verbiage. It is difficult to capture that in a 2 dimensional work and therefore it embodies a challenge that I enjoy" Eric Wallis.

Florian Nicolle | Graphic designer and illustrator

Florian Nicolle is graphic designer and illustrator freelancer from Caen, France.

- "I already have a degree in Graphic Design, there was a section devoted to the illustration that i have worked a lot, which finally took a big place in my work.

I try to create an image that retains its freshness of the first paint stroke, the expressions of the line have to be very free and spontaneous.

While keeping a rigorous drawing.

So i use fast techniques, like a bic, large brush, watercolor and chines ink.

I draw a picture as if I wrote a text, with the same tool, the same freedom, erasures, lines, scribbles".

The Monteverde Angel or Angel of the Resurrection is the name given to a marble statue of 1882 that guards the tomb of the Oneto family in the cemetery of Staglieno in Genoa, Northern Italy.

It is one of the most famous works by the Neo-classical Italian sculptor Giulio Monteverde (1837-1917) and was commissioned by Francesco Oneto, a president of the Banca Generale, in honour of deceased members of his family.
