Rafael van Herck

I call this drawing
Mister Headless.

See the Belgian magician Rafael in this picture. This cartoon has been published in/for the journal Magische Welt 6/2011. He is printed there cut in the middle. After all he is internationally famous for cutting ladies. There is so much to say about Rafael, but the simple statement that he does a good job conveys everything. Hardly any range of magic, he did not get into.

He is one of the most creative magicians and innovator of the magic scene. His trademark is the woman saw in two on the sofa or the self beheading, which can be seen in my cartoon.

I have already had the pleasure to perform with him on stage. A wonderfully kind colleague.

This cartoon has been published in/for the journal Magische Welt 6/2011 (subscription available). You will find a most interesting interview with him and much, much more of course.
