A little
bio...
I was born in April 1985 in
France. Since a very young age, I
have been attracted to art, painting,
and drawing in general. As a kid I
would spend hours drawing my
favourite cartoon characters...! I
got my first watercolours box at 10,
when I entered an art class during my
first year at junior high school. And
after that... well, I pretty much
dropped drawing. As a teen I had
other centers of interest - plus,
having to draw what the art teacher
wanted us to draw during art class
was not really motivating for me. For
several years I hardly touched a
paintbrush...
Then around 16, I (re)discovered the
wonderful world of comics and mangas.
And I was back to drawing. From there
I mainly taught myself - at first I
was just drawing for fun... but soon
I became addicted, and grew more and
more serious about art, trying to
improve my skills, to convey more
emotions, to create a personal
universe!
My work is generally described as
onirical, dreamy, dark and soft
altogether... I try to show the
beauty in strangeness, and surprise
the people who see my artwork. I seek
my inspiration from comics, but also
19th century illustrators, and
pre-raphaelite and surrealist
painters.
I have a background of biology
studies (molecular biology, to say
the truth), which are still, at this
point, the studies I am completing.
Nowadays I am living in Paris,
France, where I am a biology intern
during days, and an artist during my
free time. I have been showing my
artwork online for several years now,
and I recently started working with a
number of companies and galleries who
distribute my artwork around the
world.
