ILLUSTRATOR

Hometown: Aberdeen, Scotland
No Way: Marie is still as curious now as she was as a little girl - she is a bit of a child at heart really!

Ever since Marie was a little girl, she enjoyed drawing, colouring and observing the beauty of things around her, may it be in picture books or nature. Marie studied Product design in Paris and Aberdeen, but after having her two boys, she dedicated her time to raising them and finally, ended up teaching French to young children.

Even though pursuing a different career, Marie never really stopped drawing. She has been able to use her creativity when preparing lessons for her classes. Lockdown has finally given her some extra time and opportunity to fully rekindle her love of drawing and illustration. And, her beautiful illustrations have now found their way into children’s books.
