Moebius, the artist i would like to meet

The person I would like to meet is "moebius". This guy, called "Jean Giraud" is an illustrator and cartoonist, knowned as the father of the European comic, pioneer in science fiction comics in the 70s and 80s. Thanks to his comic, was considered a great French philosopher.

My brother, when I was 13 years old, showed me a couple of comic books in which Moebius's illustrates the comic called "The Hermetic Garage". Since at that time I did not have enough capacity to understand the history of this comic, so i only guided me by his drawings, which I found a masterpiece of the comic. I dreamed to be like this person because his drawings were magnificent.
Then, when I turned 17, I saw a Moebius cartoon in a bookstore. I buy this comic and read it. This comic is called The Incal, and its story is really fascinating, although moebius is not its original writer.

 

The moebius works are based on surrealism and science fiction, where his work of architecture and the human figure, which is worked with the technique of pointillism and high contrast. Another characteristic of moebius' work is the close relationship it maintains with rocky planets and ruins, which are frequently presented in their works. Although "moebius" died on March 12, 2012, I would like to meet him in life and thus be an apprentice of his work, since he is a master of both drawing and the philosophy he constantly applies in his drawings. Also, this person is a reference in the drawing for me, because their drawings are works of art, the technique and resources used by "Moebius" are of a high level in the world of European art
