Claire Wendling (b. 1967) is a French comics author.
Biography
In 1989, still placed on the School of Fine Arts of Angoulême, she won the prize "Alph'Art future" of the festival of Angoulême and integrates editions Delcourt participating in two anthologies, The Children of the Nile and Entrechats . In 1990 began her one and only series The lights of Amalou, from a screenplay by Christophe Gibelin.
In 1997, she was hired by Warner studio and emigrated to Los Angeles to participate in various projects including The Quest for Camelot. Failing to acclimatize, she returned eight months later in France and published Desk, a sketchbook made in Los Angeles. In 2000, she participated in the graphic design of the video game Alone in the Dark IV.
Claire Wendling is a rare author: some short stories, a series of sketch books and illustrative works, her complete works are held in one volume integral. Relatively unknown to the public because of this, Claire Wendling nevertheless enjoys a loyal readership and the admiration of her peers. Often compared to Régis Loisel, Claire Wendling is perhaps closer to Anglo-Saxon authors such as Jeffrey Catherine Jones or Mike Mignola.
She is currently one of three shortlisted candidates for the Grand Prix de la ville d'Angoulême, one of the world's most prestigious comics awards, along with Alan Moore and Hermann Huppen.[1]
In 2017, she will be guest of honor at the 75th Worldcon (World Science-Fiction Convention).
