Art by MLM

I was born in 1982 in Villerupt and then grew up in Hussigny, a small village in the North-East of France, at the crossroads of the Luxembourg and Belgian borders, imbued with Italian, Arab and Polish cultures. I learned to develop my graphic style during my studies at the Saint-Luc Higher Institute of Fine Arts in Liège. After having tested several techniques such as colored pencil, gouache and acrylic, it is digital that I enjoy the most. This process offers me endless coloring possibilities. But the features of my characters have always been born with a pencil and a piece of paper. I was raised in a family advocating modern values ​​for the time, surrounded by women of character and caring men, it was natural that women became my favorite theme. They are true, voluptuous in their authenticity, powerful in their nudity, resolutely contemporary witches prey to melancholy or radiant with life, floating in sometimes chimerical atmospheres. Through my illustrations, I try to represent body types other than the standards conveyed by our society.
