About Guillaume Brière

Guillaume Brière

Artist

Canada

Author’s Graphic Novel, Humour

All audience

Born in Caplan in 1978, Guillaume Brière earned an Associate’s Degree in Visual Arts in Rimouski before moving to Quebec City to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design and a Bachelor’s Degree in Visual Arts Education. A coachman in Old Quebec for 20 years, he gradually became a visual arts teacher and continues to teach today. Involved in all kinds of artistic projects for some thirty years, he is now launching his first comic book, the result of a personal artistic endeavor. That is to say, the thousand and one extraordinary adventures of the lone cowboy in a dangerous world, full of pitfalls and villains. Half of this work with its over-the-top title was created from comic strips drawn by the author as a teenager, and the other half, 30 years later. An experimental story that attempts to break away from the conventions of traditional comics. A cowboy, a dog, a groundhog, and plenty of other clichés take center stage in this series of completely absurd gags set in a trashy, graphic, and colorful universe.
