Description

Gradimir Smudja: what a great painter and comic artist and what a nice person.

Smudja admires the greatest painters of all time. Katsushika Hokusai was one of them. He painted the famous 'The Great Wave off Kanagawa' (神奈川沖浪裏 Kanagawa-oki nami ura, "Under a wave off Kanagawa").

Love this watercolor work. Thanx Gradimir.

About Gradimir Smudja

Gradimir Smudja was born in Novi Sad, Yugoslavia in 1954. He left his home country in 1982 because he wasn't happy with the regime of the time. He worked at a gallery in Switzerland for a while, before moving to Italy, where he produced his 'Vincent & Van Gogh' comic album, that was published by Delcourt in 2003. In this homage to the famous Dutch painter, Smudja showed a great talent for imitating Van Gogh's style. A second book was published in 2010. Text (c) Lambiek
