HELLO THERE
Hello, my name is Iris! I grew up in France and have lived in the Netherlands since 1996, where I came to study Japanology. In my spare time I like being creative. Whether it concerns music, painting or drawing, once I get into the flow I can work around the clock. This is how I bring color into my life!
MY STORY
When I spent most of my time behind my drawing table. I was fascinated by stories with colourful images and I could look at endlessly at them. That never changed. I can still get lost in the pictures of a book. I have always thought it would be fun to write my own story with my own illustrations.
​
In 2019 I came up with an interesting story idea and with the aim of illustrating it myself, I started delving into digital design. It all started quite well but then I got stuck halfway through my storyline. At the same time, Christmas was approaching and I was asked to make a Christmas card. Merry Christmouse became my first project and before I knew it I could no longer stop making cards.
​
In this portfolio, my digital creations come together and some of my illustrations are printed in the form of cards. Life consists of special moments and every special moment requires a special card, right?. For an extra special character, I have my work printed on beautiful, thick, durable paper. An overview of my available cards can be found in my shop where you are very welcome!
