Description

Illustrator and pattern designer, I am open to your collaboration proposals in the publishing field, with a particular fondness for children's books and youth publishing, which I know very well, the documentary sector, or portraiture. I enjoy sharing, sparking wonder, and contributing to distilling beauty and poetry into our daily lives. I like to put my pencil (or stylus) to the service of knowledge, whether it's representing a common flower from our meadows or a female doctor from the last century.

My taste for decorative arts and design led me to train in pattern design (surface pattern design), and I am currently creating my first collection (femininity, poetry, and refinement, floral but also youthful). I am now eager to see my first patterns come to life on objects, stationery, wallpaper, or textiles :-)

I can bring traditional as well as digital illustration techniques to your projects. I look forward to discussing them,
