I'm an agricultural engineer who doubles as a 3D graphic artist. I work and live in Paris, France.

Areas of expertise

  • Agronomy, and particularly the feeding and nutrition of farm animals. I have co-edited a reference book about this topic (Tables of composition and nutritive value of feed materials, Sauvant D., Perez J.-M., Tran G. Eds. ISBN 9076998418 2004, 304 p. INRA Editions Versailles) and I have been running the French Feed Database, a comprehensive database of feed-related data, since 1989.
  • Computer graphics, and particularly 3D modelling and rendering. My work has been featured in numerous publications online (including a featured picture at Wikipedia) and offline and in real-world exhibitions. I am also a member of the Persistance of Vision Raytracer Technical Assistance Group.
