By 1964 he began making his first lithographs to much acclaim.Since then he has received many honors, and continues to be admired and collected around the world. His dreamy approach is explained in the artist's own words: "Reality is not my world," says Menguy. "The world of dreams is my reality and my work reflects that world." *
