I’m back… with inspiration!
I’m finally somewhat back to my normal life! The move went very well and things are really starting to come together :o) Once the house isn’t such a mess, I’ll post some photos! It’s so nice to have a brand new house. My hubby and I have been in teeny apartments for so long that it’s quite the luxury to have all this space.
I plan to start my regular work week on Monday and will be continuing my Illustration Friday posts starting next Friday! In the meantime, I thought I’d share an artist I discovered with you - Samuel Ribeyron. He has some absolutely incredible work on his website and has illustrated several beautiful books. His site is in French so I don’t understand much of what is written, but his work needs no explanation! I love the flower/pattern details, beautiful use of colour, and exquisite composition. Each illustration is incredible! I’ve only posted a few here, but you must take a look at his portfolio to see all of his work - there are so many wonderful pieces!
I’m excited to get back to my art and look forward to chatting with you all this coming week! Take care!

Welcome back, Rachelle! Glad the move went well and you’re enjoying your new home. Thank you for sharing Samuel’s work. His illustrations are flawless and fantastic! I purchased a few “Lily and Milo” stamps and I’m having fun coloring them with Gamsol. Love your designs, too!
