Artist Notes:
|
This 49th birthday design for a daughter was inspired by the simple rituals that make everyday life in France so memorable. I often fill my sketchbooks with scenes from bustling village markets, baskets of freshly baked bread, seasonal flowers, fine wines, vintage champagne bottles, and beautifully displayed local produce. It's these unhurried moments and appreciation for craftsmanship that inspire my illustrations. Through loose hand-drawn sketches, painterly watercolours, and a touch of French elegance, I hoped to capture the warmth, abundance, and quiet joy of celebrating life's everyday pleasures.
