Nikola Ioa Hendrickx

By LatAm ARTE

He was born in 1982 in Dendermonde. After finishing high school, he opted for a military career and went to the University of the Royal Military Academy of Brussels, where he graduated in 2006 as an engineer. However, he had always loved to draw and paint, and very soon he devoted himself to art from his home. His favorite cartoonists are GAL, Ángel Boligan, Andrei Popov and Silvano Mello. His passion for cartoons began in 2003, when he first participated in a cartoon contest. In 2009 he won his first prize at the Karpik Cartoon Contest in Poland and since then his list of prizes has been getting bigger and bigger. He has won awards in Belgium, China, Slovakia, France, Italy, Poland, Romania and Syria. In 2013 he received the “Silver Hat” at the Cartoon Festival Knokke Heist and that year he also won the award for Best Belgian Participation in “Euro-Kartoenale The Bycicle”. Likewise, he held personal and group exhibitions in Eskisehir, Baja, Boechout, Tallinn, Zagreb, Lede, Gent and Aalst. Since two years, in addition to drawing cartoons, he also focuses on humorous paintings.
