I was born on 7 April 1968 and have been drawing ever since I was able to hold a pencil. I graduated from ESAG (Penninghen). Initially, I worked in agencies and then had my two children before starting to work as an independent graphic designer – illustrator. I make illustrations for children and for magazines, lay-outs and visual identities for companies and I also design theater sets. The current trend towards travel diaries allowed me to develop further what I have always done when traveling: draw, sketch, and paint to gather all my emotions and share them. From some of my sketches I made large paintings that are currently on exhibition in Phnom Penh at the Java Café and will be in November at the Zango-travellers’bar, Paris.
