About
I was born in 1980 in a small town in Eastern France. I graduated from Beaux-Arts in 2001, Ecole de L'Image of Epinal with a degree in Illustration. After spending time searching my own way, I became a freelance illustrator for children's books in 2005. Now I have a lot of different activities in illustration, working for French editors, and also working on special commissioned projects for galleries and personal exhibitions. My work appears in several catalogs, children's books, magazines and websites. I also love to create various things with my hands, from bookmarks to jewelry.
My world is divided in two parts. Sometimes tender, with some space for smile, strong colours and cute things, and sometimes a bit dark, when I need to expose my adult mind, and its sad depths. My inspiration comes from my childhood, from fairytales, music and dreams.
Unifying various techniques, from the pencil illustration to the collage, the painting, the digital, I'm trying to give multiple sensations, details and shades that are partly catched from my spontaneous creativity. My works are born - as it always should be - from the inspiration, the enjoyment, the will to create.
