Interview in Zürich

My art comes from the world of storytelling. I work with Caran d'Ache pencils and watercolor techniques, bringing my images to life through a play of fine details and vibrant colors, adding a colorful touch to many of my children's books.

What matters most to me is the emotional depth behind the story. I often explore themes like courage, patience, and the beauty found in life's small, quiet moments. I hope my books don't just entertain, but also help children connect with their emotions and see the world with curiosity and wonder.

Much of my inspiration comes from my time in the south of France. I divide my life between Switzerland and Provence, where part of my family lives. The region's colors, light, and everyday poetry have left a lasting imprint on me. Many of my illustrations are based on real places — like the sun-dappled fountain in the hilltop village of Gourdon, which appears in my latest book.

Lost in France is not just a children's book – it's a hand-painted love letter to Provence. Every page is crafted with care, inspired by real places and memories. Printed in a limited run, this book is a collector's piece for families who cherish slow moments, emotional storytelling, and timeless illustrations.

Lost in France was born from this world. Soon to be available in English, German, and French, it's a story of adventure, humor, and the quiet magic of ordinary days — and I'm thrilled to finally share it with readers everywhere.
