Auguste was born in Paris as the son of Breton parents. He spent most of his childhood in Brittany. He made his debut in 1956, and cooperated on the magazine Tintin from 1963 to 1970. There, he created 'Les Cromagnonneries', a gag series about everyday life of prehistoric people. This comical series deals with historical events, such as the discoveries of fire and flowers, and the invention of the wheel. He moved back to Paris in 1977. He got married and settled in Lyon, where he continued to draw in the advertising field until 1991. He spent his final years as a bookseller.
