S.Thommen's illustrations in the book "Les Oiseaux Globe-Trotteurs"

I already talked to you about Sandrine Thommen's illustrations in a blog article last year, when her book "Choses Petites et Merveilleuses" was released. I wanted to once again give a little nod to her work because she is an artist that I adore and who completely fascinates me. I had the joy of meeting her, by surprise, at the boutique, during one of her visits to Paris. His presence exudes the same beauty that I found in his works: humility, grace and gentleness.

Her talent as a storyteller through these drawings takes us on a wonderful journey around the world. There is also a gift which, I find, cannot be dissociated from the illustration itself: it is the use of color. Sandrine is for me an example of the mixture of these 2 talents which makes the work magical. The illustrator is a colorist. The color palettes in all these books give incredible life to his landscapes and story scenes.
