About

As a graphic designer for several years, I have built my career around image, composition, and visual creation. Today, I am opening my illustration shop to give a new dimension to my work: a more personal, intimate, and free dimension.

Drawing has always been part of my life. Even as a child, I filled the hallway walls at my grandmother’s house with imaginary landscapes and colorful characters. These early creative impulses shaped my sensitivity and continue to inspire my universe today. My illustration work is the result of many years of exploration, research, and experimentation. Oil pastel is a technique in which I have truly flourished. It is a tool that appears simple but is difficult to master when it comes to precision, a fascinating challenge!

Color plays an essential role in my work. I consider it a language in its own right, capable of conveying emotion even before a word is spoken. My illustrations are inspired by my memories, encounters, and travels fragments that nourish my compositions.

With each piece, I like to pair a small story, much like slipping a note into a travel journal. These texts accompany the image, giving it atmosphere, breathing space, and an added soul. They are the natural extension of my graphic gesture.

Through this shop, my intention is simple: to invite everyone to travel from the comfort of their own home. To offer a window into elsewhere, real or imaginary. To tell stories through images and share emotions that, I hope, will find their place in your own universe.
