Raymond Briggs

1/ What is his profession ?

     
    Raymond Briggs is an English illustrator, cartoonist, graphic novelist and author too. He produced humour for children and adults too. 

2/How important is it to him ?

      His profession illustrated his whole life. His work was the only very important thing  in his life. He devoted all his efforts and his hopes to his job.

 

3/ What is his house like ?

   His residence looks like a gigantic comic strip because his house's walls are covered with his drawings.

   

4/ How does his home reflect his personality ?

  His house reflects his real personnality because there are posters of his work of art. Then, in his house there are many books, photos, paint-works, paint and pencils. 

   So his house "overflows" with colors. Therefore, it's a real artist-residence.

 

5/ How does  he talk about himself, his  parents, the characters he has invented?

 

  Raymond Briggs is very modest. He is rather peculiar,  apparently with a  weak personnality. But when we see his house, we understand he  has an "oversized" personnality, very developped and fantastic too.

  Actually, he created  his parents' characters in his fantasy, and in this intervew, we can see he put these character on the top of a cupboard. It shows us he respects, loves them a lot. And, when he talks about his parents, we can notice he's very  upset. R.B he's still thinking of them.
