Freelance Illustrator & Art Director

Based south of Paris, I am an author, illustrator, and artist passionate about both traditional and digital techniques.

Holding a degree in Multimedia Art Direction from Digital Campus Paris, I have developed strong skills in visual storytelling and graphic design.

As the founder of L’Art du Pastel by ST and SAM by ST studio, I build creative projects centered around illustration, art direction, and visual communication. Through my website, I share my passion for pastel and encourage everyone to experiment and foster their own artistic expression.

My illustration work combines my love for traditional mediums, especially soft pastel and mixed media with digital design. I enjoy moving freely between these complementary worlds, exploring texture, color, and light to create expressive and poetic imagery. Inspired by nature, characters, stories, and imaginary realms, I am currently developing my own writing and illustration projects, with a special focus on crafting images and narratives that invite people to dream, feel, and explore.

My practice brings together illustration, art direction, and graphic design to imagine singular visual universes. I explore the possibilities of traditional drawing alongside digital tools to design imagery tailored to brands, editorial projects, and communication materials. I collaborate with companies, agencies, and cultural organizations across France and internationally.
