These new art pieces are incredibly close to my heart, as they represent my journey of healing and rediscovery within the stunning landscapes of the Pacific Northwest that surrounds me and the beautiful creatures in the wild. 🌍✨ It's a sentiment deeply rooted in me, one that truly resonates with me and fuels my passion. 🖼 Let's unite to cherish, protect, and nurture our world, ensuring it flourishes for generations to come.

My friend Minjoo once told me that we might have met each other in a previous life as a deer and a rabbit. The picture was so cute that I couldn’t help painting it as a gift when I visited her in Korea. ^^ --------------- Mon ami Minjoo m'a dit un jour que nous nous étions peut-être rencontrés dans une vie antérieure en tant que biche et lapin. L’image était tellement mignonne que je n'ai pas pu m'empêcher de la lui peindre en cadeau lorsque je lui ai rendu visite en Corée. ^^ . #animallovers #naturelovers #natureart #nature #animal #wildlife #deer #doe #rabbit #cervidae #Animalportrait #animalpainting #painting #traditionnalpainting #watercolor #watercolorpainting #aquarellepainting #paintingartist #colordrawing #Natureartist #cute #friend #Friendship #artwork #illustration #art #drawing #traditionaldrawing #artlovers #traditionnalart https://www.instagram.com/p/Cobp37wqXwf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Summer is finally around the corner, so let's look at some snow! Earlier this year I painted this pack of wolves howling (not necessarily at the moon!) for Ranger Rick Jr. I consulted my "wolf-kid" friends (as I was more of a cat-kid when it came to mammals) to make sure they were adequately wolfy. Pretty happy with how it came out, and had a blast with the color palette. I hope someday to see the Northern Lights for myself! #wolves #wolfpack #painting #digitalpainting #natureartist #kidnatureart #childrensillustration #moon #winterscene https://www.instagram.com/p/CeQ0nE9uxFe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Working on this one was a lot of fun! I love to draw birds but unfortunately do that very rarely. This one is a memorial artwork commissioned by Cheyenne, with her wonderful cockatiel - Pikachu.
By the way, I will have two or three commission slots open this month, just after I finish work on the ones I'm currently working. If you're interested you can drop me a PM or an email at [email protected]
Hands up if you like penguins 🙋♀️This cute Mum and Bub will be available in my store very soon. I think they will fit perfectly with my sea lion and whale illustrations for an ocean theme set.

Here back I am, and the Plumes with me! However, I am announcing a change in the pace of publication. At the moment I have a few pages ahead so I'm sticking to "once every two weeks", but then I'll just post a new page when I have one ready. Besides of doing me a lot of good, this break will have made me realize that the publication on a regular schedule, in addition to imposing unnecessary stress on me and having an influence on my health, had cut me from the pleasure of illustration and study sessions that allow me to progress artistically. With only two publications per month I am anyway well below what makes a fluid narration. I doubt a week will make a difference I so might as well keep working on this comic at a pace that will save me from overwork and giving up the project. I hope you will nevertheless enjoy the return of the adventures of my little Plumes. Thank you for your support, it is precious to me. ♥ ----------- Me voilà de retour, et les Plumes avec moi ! Je vous annonce cependant un changement dans le rythme de publication. Pour le moment j’ai quelques planches d’avance donc je reste sur le « une fois toutes les deux semaines », mais ensuite je posterai simplement une nouvelle planche quand j’en aurai une de prête. En plus de me faire un bien fou, cette pause m’aura permis de réaliser que la publication sur une base régulière, en plus de m’imposer un stress inutile et d’avoir une influence sur ma santé, m’avait coupé ces derniers temps du plaisir de l’illustration et des séances d’études qui me permettaient de progresser sur le plan artistique. Avec seulement deux publications par mois je suis de toute façon bien en-deça de ce qui permet d’avoir une narration fluide. Je doute que vous êtes à une semaine près donc autant continuer à travailler sur cette BD à un rythme qui m’épargnera le surmenage et l’abandon du projet. J’espère que vous apprécierez néanmoins de retrouver les aventures de mes petites Plumes. Merci pour votre soutien, c’est précieux pour moi. ♥ . #fantasy #bird #webcomic #comic #fairy #birdlovers #birdcomic #comicartist #bande-dessinée #nature #oiseau #sliceoflife #comicpage #birdspirit #natureartist #Belledenuit https://www.instagram.com/p/CkrDN3kKeMa/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
