An excellent technician, trained in classical drawing and perspective, his precise and well-researched line—which blends academic precision with narrative imagination—is perfectly suited to any subject. His favorite technique focuses on the sketchbook, which he elevates to another level with extremely detailed drawings where documentary rigour serves the literary imagination.
Born in 1981, Armel Gaulme is a graduate of Penninghen/Académie Julian, where he now teaches classical drawing and perspective. Inspired by Alan Lee, John Howe and the European illustrators of the early 20th century, he initially illustrated several children’s series for Le Baron Perché (The Perched Baron) under the direction of Maylis de Kerangal, and later for Casterman and Bayard, before turning his hand to audiovisual pre-production — including video games, animation and advertising. At the same time, he teaches at several art schools and in his own studio. Remaining true to his passion for drawing on paper, he published BESTiary (Caurette, 2018) and illustrated, in the form of watercolor sketchbooks, seminal works of fantasy literature: H.P. Lovecraft’s The Nameless City and Dagon, as well as Rudyard Kipling’s The Man Who Would Be King... Complete biography
