I’m a digital artist. I’m currently based in Paris, I do Storyboarding and Illustration work for Anime Studios and clients all over the world, and spend my free time making digital paintings . I was born in the Martinique. As for the long story, I’ve been drawing pretty much my whole life. Ever since I can remember, my family, teachers and classmates told me that drawing was my ‘talent,’ especially DBZ, which motivated me to keep practicing. I spent all my free time drawing and when I was in my senior year of high school, I had to face the fact that I loved drawing too much not to pursue it as a career. I ended up choosing animation, and signed up for the animation course in Emile Cohl School (France). I studied there for 4 years and got my master’s degree Paul Grimault Promotion in 2011 with my graduation project EN BEL SO. I started as a Storyboard Artist and worked for Studios like Studio HARI, JSBC, Zodiak Kids, Xilam Animation. I worked on show like « The Owl & Co », « Boyster », « Get Blake », « Zig & Sharko », and « Moka ». In 2015, I even moved to London to work on the Cartoon Network’s show « The Amazing World of Gumball ». Next to my Storyboard work, I always worked on my personal paintings and drawings in my free time. These illustrations not only feature my art, but also gives insights into my creative world. As a result, I started as a freelancer and made illustrations for the animation industry , singers like ELHAE, the American Book Industry and other kind of clients.
