From the pulsating beats of music to the contagious good vibes, vibrant characters, and the art of exaggeration, these elements are what fuel my passion.

‌ For me, art is all about music, positive vibes, unforgettable characters, and the power of exaggeration.

‌ My tale begins in Quebec, Canada, in the dynamic year of 1969 – the year I entered the world.

‌ But the spark truly ignited when at the age of 10, JJ from Good Times unveiled his paintings. It was a game-changer! The exaggerated poses and electrifying vibes of Ernie Barnes’ art ignited a fire within me.

‌ I yearned to capture that same excitement, energy, and rhythmic sense of fun that I experienced in the presence of those mesmerizing paintings.

‌ At 19, the universe conspired to grant me my first artistic endeavor – the animated short “Evilution,” a labor of love completed seven years later.

‌Following that, I spent a decade storyboarding and directing animated TV series. Then, in 2004, I plunged headfirst into the booming video game industry – a decision that filled me with excitement and opened endless possibilities.

‌ And now, Street Funk MTL – my bold attempt to revive the pulsating inspirations of my childhood – to recapture the magic and energy that fueled my earliest artistic endeavors. ‌

Join me in this vibrant journey where creativity meets nostalgia, and the echoes of childhood dreams resound in a whirlwind of positive vibes, rhythmic joy and pure fun!
