1. What's your story? Where are you from?Hi, I’m Marion, I’m French and Im 25. I was born in Nantes and I’m living in Lyon since few months.2. Tell us about your aesthetic.I think (and I hope) that my pictures are tender and poetic. I like to create with simple shapes, people, objects, nature … I’m often inspired by the childish world and I like to use soft colours.3. What is your favourite medium and why?Drawing, for sure ! Paper/pencil is the perfect match ! But I work more and more with my computer, particularly with Photoshop. Usually i draw, then i scan my draws to color them on screen. I discover lots of possibilities to use and transform my pictures.4. What is your artistic process like?One word : intuition. I follow my feelings, I catch all ideas that comes to my mind. Sometimes, I take a blank paper et I let my imagination go. Often, I don’t have a precise idea of what I want to do, I just let go my mind. Pleasure, no pressure ! Usually, I draw directly with black pencil, without corrections. So, all my pictures have small defects and I like their imperfection.5. Who and/or what inspires your work?All around me : people, street, nature, or situations (sometimes my dreams). A lot of artists made me desire and inspiration to create, in many different creative fiels : drawing, painting, sculpture, architecture, music...6. What role does art play in your life? How does it change the way you view the world?« Art is everywhere in my life » HAHA, So, so, banal ! I have always observed things around me. Unconsciously, I think that I am always looking for beauty, even small details in my environment. I find inspiration in what I see. And I really think the art is magic : i love to materialize an idea or an intimate emotion on paper.7. Where did you study?I have an atypical school career : five years in social sciences and one million questionnings later , I decided to change my direction. Today, I studying in space design. So I draw on my free time and I REALLY would like to have MORE TIME for that.8. Where do you see yourself in five years? Working in an agency?Work in an agency or for myself, whatever. I just hope i’ll love my work and to love my job, and that I will always be as passionate as today. I hope to have many beautiful projects.
