Dive into the offbeat and nostalgic world of Retro , a work full of character by Jacques Petitjean, winner of Inktober 2024. With a graphic style inspired by comics, this creation plays on a striking contrast between the elegance of the drawing and the humor of the elements represented.

The work features a man in a vintage suit, dark glasses on his nose and a cigarette in his mouth, sitting on a childish-style mini racing motorcycle. On his back, an improbable load: a retro robot with a mischievous look, a rotary telephone and other objects that recall the aesthetics of years gone by. The bright orange background accentuates the energy and pop side of the illustration, while highlighting the character's worked lines and shadows.

With Retro , Jacques Petitjean skillfully blends geek culture and nostalgia, creating a work that is both funny and thoughtful. Perfect for lovers of bold designs and contemporary graphic art, this piece embodies the very essence of Inktober: a mix of creativity, technique and visual storytelling. A unique work that is sure to captivate and make you smile.

Jacques Petitjean

Jacques Petitjean is an illustrator for whom drawing is a way of anchoring the imagination in reality—or perhaps the other way around. At the crossroads of comics, video games, and geek culture, he develops a universe as expressive as it is precise, full of dark humor, disillusioned tenderness, and revisited pop homages. A 2024 Inktober winner, he stands out for his incisive graphic style: clean lines, full colors, characters both familiar and offbeat. His works capture a frozen moment—often funny, sometimes melancholic, always impactful. Alongside his personal work, Jacques Petitjean collaborates on projects such as the video game Noara, where he puts his talent at the service of the narrative and visual universe. Whether it illustrates an absurd scene, a gaming icon, or a character tired of everything, it shows what geek culture has that is most human: its imagination, its derision, and this desire to continue dreaming in style.
