Alain Chevarier

Author, Illustrator

Montréal born, Alain Chevarier started dabbling in comics as a teenager, and moved on to study drawing, painting, graphic design and filmmaking throughout the course of his long and convoluted education. He spent most of his professional career as a film and TV director, while raising two daughters with his wife, contemporary dancer Jamie Wright. He got pulled back into making comics when co-author Mark McGuire suggested they create a graphic novel about fatherhood, based on their life experiences. Projects have since multiplied, and their book Clay Footed Giants, along with other books Alain worked on, have been nominated for several prizes.
