Oil, pastel and tar on paper

Pascal Heranval is a French painter, draftsman, and printmaker whose works have been exhibited nationally, in the Ivory Coast and Kuwait. He believes that art is a means to improve ourselves and to improve the relationships between people and the world. Often painting on maps or encyclopedia pages, like an engraver, Heranval employs lines and dots to model new shapes, allowing the graphic textures and colors of the backgrounds to show through.
