(French below – Français plus bas) My Alice illustrations are on show for the first time in Lyon (France)! The quirky exhibition space/cabinet of curiosity Vapeur d’Encres will host all 24 of them for two months. You can also grab prints and the book! Feel free to share your pictures with me! For those of…
‘Well, there’s the Horse-fly,’ Alice began, counting off the names on her fingers. ‘All right,’ said the Gnat: ‘half way up that bush, you’ll see a Rocking-horse-fly, if you look. It’s made entirely of wood, and gets about by swinging itself from branch to branch.’ ‘What does it live on?’ Alice asked, with great curiosity.…
(French below – français plus bas) I am back with you to lift the mystery over the few teaser pictures and explanations you might have seen on my instagram or facebook page. It took about 6 months to complete this project (as I could only spent nights and week-ends on it), and it kind of…
(French below – Français plus bas) I created a blog in parallele to this one to present the development of my comic book project, Underland, so as to prevent this one to be flooded with info that might not interess everyboby. I would love people to interact and ask whatever they want so please, feel…
(French below – français plus bas) October has been a long, busy month. Two exhibitions, my mom’s visit, change of work, Halloween preparations, BofA preparations, evening classes AND Inktober. At times I was so tired that I couldn’t draw anything – it happened several times that I had to catch up on missed days! But…

It was suddenly so cold and the silence was so heavy. I changed forever. My empty words, my dead stare, all the worlds…
(French below – Français plus bas) Second of theses curiosities, a tribute to my favourite series of books of all times: Harry Potter. With Fluffy from the ‘Philosopher’s Stone’, here as a three headed wolf rather than dog, also presenting the Three Ages: childhood with the puppy skull on the left, adulthood with the middle…
(French below – Français plus bas) As I already said, I am a former art historian. I specialised in the history of collecting, which includes the collection of oddities and more particularly these cabinets of curiosities, most of them showing a bric a brac of exotic animals taxidermy, fossils, pictures and engravings, and in more…
(French below – français plus bas) I’m finally finished with my five “Alice’s Dream” designs! – I had to find a sixth little Alice to draw though, as I’ve got yet another idea… Anyway, I placed the order for these five first ones and the cards should arrive within two weeks, hopefully before the start of…
