Professional artist & illustrator,
graduate of School of Applied Arts in Poitiers (86), France.
Art Director & Graphic Designer for 15 years, it was in 2023
that I decided to devote myself to my lifelong passion: illustration.
Today, I collaborate with advertising, press and publishing professionals
to illustrate their projects and messages.
I regularly exhibit my work at art shows and events,
and I create illustrations and customized projects for private clients.
Since the summer of 2024, I've been part of the coaching team
for a professional training course to become an artist.
“Nature is my greatest source of inspiration, its richness, its diversity, ...
I like to take refuge there to recharge my batteries and contemplate the wonders
that make it up.
Traditional art has been part of my life since I was little, it allows me
to feel fully alive. So it was quite natural that I started to draw flowers, plants,
and other splendors of Nature.
Close to traditional engraving, I let myself be guided by the techniques
and the aesthetics that emerge from it to bring my creations to life.
With my ballpoint pens, I express the richness of life in every stroke.
This medium allows me great delicacy and a lot of softness in my creations.
I also like to work with ink, and sometimes with watercolor and colored pencils...
Fascinated by artists such as Gustave Doré and Franklin Booth, I immerse myself in a universe
where the precision and subtlety of the engravings combine with the free and organic expression of life.
Each work becomes an invitation to rediscover the beauty of nature, the power of animal life
and the complexity of human experience.”
