Accords Sensibles

Antonio Lapone, who uses the pseudonym Lapis, is a comic artist, designer and illustrator from Turin. He works in a style inspired by the Clear Line movement of the 1980s, of which French artists like Yves Chaland, Serge Clerc and Jean-Claude Floc'h were the main representatives. He has been working as an advertising artist since the 1990s, and has been making comics on the side. Among his early work were a couple of covers for the Italian Disney publications, as well as a story starring 'Paperinik' ('Superdonald'). Lapone published the first story of his retro-styled 1950s heroin 'Desy Blonde' in 1999. Other creations include 'The Amazing Lapis-Man' and 'Gek lo Squartatrote'.
