Hello,
Emily dessine has to stop the special events activity
and is about to create a travel sketchbooks blog.
The website is being reshaped and will be ready soon.
I am creating this blog to share with you
my sketchbooks full of humour and poetry.
I will also give you ideas to stimulate your creativity.
Shall we warm the pencils up?
A magic moment, a unique souvenir,
a work of art to sublimate your emotions…
Let’s share
ENTHUSIASM
I offer you to travel among my watercolours,
– to boost your creativity –
at Lyon, in France and all around the world…
“Always make of your picture an opening to the world.”

Who am I?
ARTIST STUDIO
As a travelling artist, I’ve drawn all over the world.
My experience of nominated author-illustrator for literary awards
and my passion to pass on drawing skills (ex teacher at École Émile Cohl)
are huge assets to bring water to your watercolours! :)
