Detailed and delicate illustrations by French illustrator and painter Noumeda Carbone now living in Florence (Italy). Noumeda’s black and white illustrations with hints of red tones are superb and so are the lines used in the women hair.

Bruno Fabbris - Photography
Bruno Fabbris is a French photographer based in Paris who seems to specialise in portrait and fashion photography. His website might not be up to date in terms of design but his actual photography work is surely worth a look… The image quality on his series “Vaporescentes” is not quite there on the website but I would love to see the actual shots as they all seem fantastic with the lighting, the dust, the fabric… Bruno’s archives and artbook are really pleasing to look at too and so is his advertising work for Chanel, Vichy or L’Oreal… Bruno also worked with big names in the cosmetics and fashion industry such as Glamour, Marie-Claire, Vogue, Maybeline….
Mr Qui - Illustration
Superb illustrations by French illustrator Mr Qui. Monsieur Qui not only creates stunning illustrations for paper but he also loves to work on a wide range of materials from plates, skateboard decks, guitar, shoes… Selecting only a few images was a real struggle, there was at least 20 of them that could have been showcased here!! Some of MrQui’s work is available to buy on my favourite art & design shop: Amkashop.
Invasions - Clement Morin
Excellent 3d animation by Clément Morin, a French 3D motion designer based in Paris.
Florian Nicolle - Graphic design
Excellent work and especially illustrations by French graphic designer Florian Nicolle.
Sophie Griotto - Illustrations



Feminine, modern and colourful illustrations by French artist Sophie Griotto aka Griotte currently living in Paris. Her favourite theme is women and their modern life style in the city. Her website is really nice and welcoming, the navigation is a bit old school and a tad annoying in my view but this aspect is well over compensated by the quality of her illustrations. If you enjoy Sophie’s work and you would like to get yourself a little artistic treat, some of her pieces are available for sale on Amkashop under the artist name Griotte.
Pony Pony Run Run - Hey You
Hey You! Excellent tune and video by a French band from Nantes Pony Pony Run Run for their new single Hey You. Pony Pony run run’s first album should be release anytime soon. The band members met whilst studying Art (Beaux Arts) so in a way creativity is their way of life. The song is really light and catchy, with an influence of British pop some would say and is absolutely spot on for the summer. The video was shot in Thailand. The tune stays in your mind all day long. Some might dislike that in a way but because it’s so light, fresh and groovy, it’s really enjoyable… Love it!
Valerie Morignat




Valerie Morignat specialises in underwater photography. She’s incredibly talented and her photographs are really surprising. It goes further than the classic underwater photography, she plays with wonder with space (water), textures, bubbles, colours and reflections. I always struggle in the first seconds to find out how the photo has been taken, which part of the body is inside the water, which bit is outside… A delight for your sight!
