Gladtoart

Gladimir began drawing at the age of 12. At the time, he was living in Haiti.
He was rather boisterous, and his father used to tell him to go and read to calm down.

But he didn't like reading, except for comic books. Back then, books weren't as affordable as they are today. Access to comics in Haiti was difficult, and prices exorbitant. So our dear artist found himself reading the same book over and over again. And there wasn't much for him to do, given the lack of electricity at night.

Taken by boredom, he began to reproduce his comics. Inspired, he ended up creating his own comic strip. The artist wanted to go further in his exploration of the arts, and learned to paint with gouache and acrylics while at college.

It was then that he fell in love at first sight. Indeed, he fell in love with painting. He began to devote more time to his passion, even entering competitions where he effortlessly distinguished himself.

Unfortunately, he had to give up painting to devote himself to his studies.
Several years went by, without Glad ever touching a brush again.

In 2021, he was reacquainted with painting, which at first was simply a form of therapy for his anxiety.
"It's the only time I'm able to clear my head".
