Carnet de voyage Mexique Painting by Yann Graffion

Self-taught artist, I started painting to create a travel diary during my world tour by bike. During these four years on the road, I put down on paper memories, experiences, sensations... using a small box of watercolors and a few utensils.

Paint, just like traveling, is a way to explore your inner world. Its dark side and its magical side.

I experiment with different mediums: Watercolor, Gouache, Charcoal, Spray paint, Stencil, Ink, Chalk… Some of the faces in these paintings are people I met during my journey, others are artists who inspire me.

Each painting is the result of hours of research, experimentation, frustrations, and creativity. happy mistakes and moments of pure joy.

They are all a part of me.
