Born in Germany, Frederic Guimont moved to Canada at an early age where he developed an interest in comic books and computer programming. After having fully explored his parents' Commodore 64c, he focused on developing his drawing skills and went on to study art in college near Quebec City. He has worked on a comic book series entitled Candyappleblack and is currently adapting George Orwell's 1984 as an independent comic book project (http://www.1984comic.com).
