about
Philip Paquet : illustrator, comics artist, tattoo apprentice, painter, musician...but above all storyteller. He published his first comic, a short story, in 1998. Since then he has created many more. Variation is important, got to keep on moving.
P is best known for his Louis Armstrong graphic novel :
“This book feels as personal to Philip Paquet as the words to Satchmo himself. Paquet’s unique watercolor style gives Louis Armstrong an unmistakable sense of nostalgia that reaches deep into the memory of a great man and gives a certain clarity to an already distinctive voice.” Allen Hui.
P likes jazz, penne arrabbiata, Bauhaus design, movies, Japan, funk, women, Swiss mountains, riding his bike, sneakers, limoncello, playing his bass, ginger, Hokusai , tattoos, JD Salinger (RIP), okonomiyaki, Conté and Pentel drawing pens...not necessarly in that order.
P regularly joins forces with like-minded graphic designers Steven De Loenen (Stoav), Gregory Huwart (Gringosdesign),
Stijn Wens (Stijn) and Thijs Louis.
