Philippe Foerster: Andreas made me a very odd proposal one day: "Would
you make an album for which I would do nothing but the inking?" he asked
me. For myself, I found that extraordinary but I answered him nevertheless:
"to what end? Our drawings are so different... " He told me that only
inking interested him and that I were to take care of all the rest, the
scenario included, of course. Finally, I nevertheless proposed to him to
carry out certain decorations but he refused. All the same we made a synopsis
together of what I had written and then... he did what he wanted to do,
i.e. inking!
Certain decorations and characters are very "Andreas"...
Philippe Foerster: No! He was devoted to inking and the work was almost entirely done
by postal way, because Andreas lives in Brittany. I sent the drawings
to him and, once inked, he in turn sent them to Lombard.
