Artist Interview | Pierre Benjamin

from Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages · host Kyle Wood

I recently had the pleasure to interview Pierre Benjamin, UK-based artist with years of experience specializing in 3D character and concept art, illustration, painting, and sculpture. His artistic journey began in childhood, deeply influenced by his photographer father and his grandfather, figurative painter Gérard Calvet. Formal training included sculpting under Serge Destarac, art history at the Louvre Museum, and a BA and MA in games and animation from the University of South Wales, where he now lectures.
