The Son of Ken (AKA Mark Hughes)

Here's a great Serge from Wales' very own Son of Ken (otherwise known as Mark Hughes). He's @SonofKen on Twitter, @theartofsok on Instagram and you can buy his fantastic illustrated Welsh Alphabet book HERE.

It's been a while since I've drawn Serge. I was about to post a drawing on here yesterday then I noticed if I waited until today it would be 5 YEARS since the last post! Here's a new drawing - originally drawn in my sketchbook with ballpoint pen and colour pencil and then coloured in Procreate on the iPad Pro. If anyone else fancies drawing Serge then send them in (contact details to the right).

More Serges to come soon!

Joann Sfar

I've been busy recently so I haven't been paying the attention I should do to Draw Serge but I'm about to remedy that in quite a spectacular fashion. Today's contribution ("The Evolution of Gainsbourg") comes from no other than Joann Sfar! If you're a Gainsbourg fan and a regular visitor to this blog and you don't know who Joann Sfar is then you should be ashamed!

This pic was procured for me by the brilliant Joe Decie. Merci, Joe!

"Draw Serge" at Le Truc, Birmingham - 14/10/2012

Here's some photographs from yesterday's "Draw Serge" event at Le Truc in Birmingham yesterday. It was part of the excellent Eye Candy Festival and the Birmingham Zine Fest.

Top to bottom, left to right - Dan Berry, Lizz Lunney, Den Barry, Jonathan Edwards, David Setter, Julian Kimmings, unknown, Matt "8bit" Macabre, unknown (The two unknown artists are staff from Le Truc. If anyone can send me their names I'll credit them accordingly).

Here's some more photos of the day courtesy of Felt Mistress.

A big thank you to all the artists involved and to Le Truc for hosting the event and keeping us all fed and watered all day.

Next - Draw Serge LIVE ON ICE!(not really).

"Draw Serge" at Le Truc, Birmingham

As part of the Eye Candy Festival and the Birmingham Zine Fest in Birmingham this weekend. I'll be hosting a live "Draw Serge" event at Le Truc. 9 panels will be illustrated by a variety of artists (all former "Draw Serge" alumni" - including Den Berry, Matt Macabre, Joe List, David Setter, Julian Kimmings and others) on Sunday October 14th starting at 12pm. Come along - watch us draw, listen to Serge and enjoy the Le Truc dedicated Art menu.

If you're about on the Saturday I'll also be taking part in the "Make It Then Tell Everybody" event alongside Warwick Johnson-Cadwell, Luke Pearson, Philippa Rice, Kristyna Baczynski, Joe List, Lizz Lunney, Marc Ellerby and someone called Felt Mistress.

Serge Baeken

Here's a great Serge by a Serge - Serge Baeken. Serge is a cartoonist and illustrator from Antwerp. "I drew this Serge after seeing a home video of Jane Birkin that was broadcasted on Arte. The portrait was published to illustrate an article on Gainsbourg in Zone5300, a Dutch comic and cult magazine."

Benoît Gréant

Gary Willis 2

This is Gary's second contribution to Draw Serge (here's his first). A slighly different approach this time. This was photographed outside Serge's house in Paris back in April. Gary is a graphic designer.

Graeme McNee

Graeme McNee is an illustrator. Born in South Africa, raised in Scotland and now living in Japan (lucky Graeme!) he's been a Serge fan since he was a child as his Mum used to play "Bonnie & Clyde" while doing the housework. Graeme also draws "Minimal Comics" - keep an eye out for the Melody Nelson-themed strip.

Cat Ingall

Cat Ingall is an illustrator based in Glasgow. I didn't realise until I read about Cat's work on her website that this illustration is actually a paper cut! Incredible. There's a great post all about it HERE. Visit Cat's website and blog to see more of her work.

Laurent Clermont

"Draw Serge" is three years old this month. Thanks to everyone who's contributed. There's a lot to post this month so here's the first - Laurent Clermont. Laurent is a French animation director now based in Stockholm. Visit his website to see more of his brilliant work.

Mat Pringle

Mat Pringle is an illustrator and print maker based in London. There's some beautiful work on his site so go have a look. He also has a shop and is available to stalk on Twitter.

Marc Stipling

Today's Serge comes courtesy of Marc Stipling, the person who cuts my hair. That's right, I won't let anyone near these locks who isn't capable of drawing Monsieur Gainsbourg. I think that's a good rule to live your life by.

John Fisher

John Fisher is (in his own words) an "amateur artist" from the North West of England. He's really captured Gainsbourg! I was sent this Serge back in October but only found it in my spam folder this week! Sorry for the delay in bringing this one to you. John's blog can be found HERE.
