I’m just a little French librarian who likes to draw from time to time

Merry Christmas 🎄🎁⛄️

Tomorrow winter will be here, and in a few days we will celebrate Christmas and the New Year. It's the season for soups, pies, and hot chocolate 🍂

With a bit of luck, we'll soon be able to watch the snow fall while staying warm at home ⛄️

A perfect book for the season 🍁 « Un automne avec M. Henri » by Fanny Ducassé.

Warm illustrations, a story of autumn, love, and friendship, and lots of recipes!

One of my favorite children's books at the library 🍄🍂🍄‍🟫

Spring 2025

Summer is here, spring is over 🌸 Here is a little photographic recap of the pretty flowers that I saw this year (and some cherries from my neighbor’s tree 🍒)

I can’t wait to see if the nasturtiums from my father’s garden have bloomed !

Have a great summer ☀️

Here is my second little art book ! I’m less satisfied with this one, I tried gouache for the first time and I don't really like the result (the paint doesn't hold well). But I also tried a little poetry exercise, the goal is to create a poem using words from a pre-existing poem. Here I used “L’école des Beaux-arts”, by Jacques Prévert, and I really like the result! 🌼

Quick drawing of the day ! Inspired by my cat Crème. She loves soup, and, in a fantasy world, she would surely be an adventurer 🐱

Happy National Library Week!! A great time to ask everyone you know if they have a library card.

Little art book, colorful flowers 💐 I was inspired by valia.guillard’s video on instagram, it’s the first time I used so much vivid colors and I really enjoyed creating this little book !

My last winter landscape, I tried to draw it in a style reminiscent of linocuts ❄️⛄️

Here's a little winter illustration, while we wait for the days to lengthen and spring to arrive ❄️⛄️

Do you remember the toys you received at Christmas when you were a child? I'd been given a super red convertible for my dolls, and I took it everywhere with me! Thanks to this car, my toys went on incredible adventures in the sandbox and in the garden 🎁🎄
