Illustrator and graphic designer in Paris for 15 years, passionate about art and epicurean ! I draw since my youngest age, surrounded by artists, museum curators, art critics, art books, it is impossible for me to do anything else but draw and see art everywhere in my life !So I went to art school in Aix en Provence before leaving for Paris to do a Master's degree in Advertising and Communication... it was during one of my internships in an advertising agency that I discovered the profession of illustrator. Encouraged by the art directors at Léo Burnett, I have always done freelance illustrations in parallel with my work as a graphic designer. I styled my first roses with watercolor ink for Yves Saint Laurent for the limited editions of the perfume Paris Premières Roses... the floral was an obvious choice and that's how Kenzo approached me to draw poppies for the perfume Flower by Kenzo. My style continued to evolve with the brand Hipanema which allowed me to go further in my artistic research during two years, to enter the hippie chic universe to draw vegetal patterns, palm trees, feathers, flowers, pegasus, leopards... multiplying the techniques inks, pastels, Posca, felt pens... Passionate about the pattern I finally had the opportunity to create a collection for Clairefontaine called Blooming! A real ode to spring where I loved to create and lay out on hundreds of objects (notebooks, notebooks, boxes, fans...) patterns, wreaths, friezes of flowers and plants... Moreover, this winter I had the chance to create patterns by reinterpreting the old patterns of the House of Ungaro and creating new ones: Peonies, Charms, Tropical for their upcoming collections... My drawings with watercolor inks, charcoals, pastels.... represent a floral and vegetal universe colored, poetic, fragile, luxuriant, abundant, seductive... in search of an emotion.
