Him: Hello.
*Me: Hello.
Him: My name is Juan.
*Me : My name is Elisa.
Him: Nice to meet you Elisa.
*Me : Nice to meet you Juan.°
Him: What do you do for a living?
*Me : I do Art.°
Him: It’s funny, I’m an artist too.
*And they lived happily and had many children.
*(with Spanish accent).
° (without accent).
This is typically THE short speech (but long story) I’ve been dreaming of for the past decade or so.
(Don’t try to figure out how old the Spanish accent is for me, that’s not the point).
Indeed, today, we are talking about Art, about you, and especially, about your creative potential.
So, if like me, you are a mountain leader, an elevator maintenance agent, an equestrian agent for the national police, a sky marshal, or even if you have a job that does not begin with the letter A, but you have always dreamed of being an artist…

…Run, run to get this new book » J’ai toujours rêvé d’être un artiste » published by Tana (15€).
J'ai toujours rêvé d'être un artiste, Tana éditions, 15€
In just a few minutes, armed with a pen & a set of felt-tip pens, andfueled by a fertile imagination, you become in turn: art student, knight, architect, milliner, advertising executive, cartoonist, sculptor, poster artist, face painter, stylist, interior decorator, tattoo artist, graphic designer, the king of tuning (?), porn star, tagger, burgerophile, king of the world, creator, editor, body painter, popstar, astronomer, director, showman (***), actor, writer…
Some of my relatives (precision: those who are not yet artists) have enjoyed it, and obviously they have taken a liking to it.
In pictures…
