Et si je ne voulais pas gagner du temps ?
La dernière fois, je parlais avec mon mari d’une vidéo qu’il avait vu sur instagram, Il m’expliquait le contenu de ce qu’il avait vu et en l’écoutant (attentivement promis) je me suis fait la réflexion que le format vidéo fonctionnait mieux, car cela permettait aux personnes d’aller plus vite, aller plus vite vers la fin du contenu et puis passer à autre chose. Et en effet, si on regarde bien le monde qui nous entoure, tous les produits nous promettent de gagner du temps. Mais en y réfléchissant bien, qu’est-ce que cela signifie gagner du temps ? Et est-ce que l’on a envie de gagner du temps ? Si tu…

How do I create a magazine cover?
I love magazines that combine the beauty of illustrations with subjects that are dear to me. Respire magazine, Open Mind, and Flow magazines are on this list, surrounded by many others. Inspired by their work, which I find magnificent, I felt like creating my magazine cover using my illustrations. This gives them a new dimension that I adore. Here is the beginning of my process: I painted my character following an autumnal color code. The lines were done in ink with a dip pen and the colors were in watercolor. With the completed character, my next step is to find and arrange the perfect composition to showcase the illustration. And…

What if we could understand our cycles?
Every month, I find myself getting frustrated and shouting over nothing, which isn’t like me at all. And all of this could have continued for a long time if I hadn’t realized that these moods were happening on New Moon days. The New Moon also called the Black Moon, is the moon that we no longer see at night, the opposite of the Full Moon. Following the moon’s journey allowed me to parallel it with my menstrual cycle. Because yes, modeled on the 28-day lunar cycle, women vary. And that’s an understatement. We evolve, we transform, and sometimes, we feel like a completely different person. And that’s normal! But nobody…

Bee Happy, how to promote a Roof for Bees?
The idea for this illustration comes from an Instagram challenge #dtiys organized by the artist Poopikat. I loved her character and wanted to create my version. I also had a lot of luck; the sun was still high in the sky in Denmark, and the flowers were beautiful. I wanted to use this illustration to promote a French company that I greatly appreciate, Un Toit pour les abeilles (A Roof for Bees). The concept of this company is to help beekeepers through a membership. So, each month, you can sponsor a beehive near or far from your location. In return, you receive honey pots from that beekeeper. At the time,…
