Amélie was born in Paris France during the year of the Rat and as a child she began drawing
Disney characters and Manga. Whilst growing up she spent a lot of time living with her
Chinese family in the Republic of Mauritius. Later, after graduating from Penninghen
School Of Art Direction, she worked as a graphic designer before becoming an
illustrator and now live in the British countryside, close to the Welsh mountains, with
her partner and my cat Chichi.Her preferred medium are paints, crayons, inks and digital applications but she is always
interested in trying new techniques. The different languages, cultures and colourful
people of Mauritius inspired her love for painting rich flora and playful characters. She
often uses her family as an art subject and recreates childhood memories from old
photos. She has an interest in learning languages and on a lighter note she enjoys knitting
and playing video gamesView Full Bio
