Bonjour !
Hello ! I am Flore, the illustrator behind Papier Coton. In my studio in Bordeaux, I experiment with bright colors, everyday details, and elements of nature, which I like to mix according to my inspiration.
I love the imperfection and texture of gouache, which allows me to create a naive, joyful, and colorful universe, teeming with details.
Take a step back, slow down for a bit and immerse you to the wonders of Nature.

Under the grey skies of Bordeaux, I'm busy getting everything ready for next week. After months of painting for freelance projects, I'm feeling the art block coming on, so I'm taking the opportunity to put down my brushes for a few more days and do something else ☁️ if you have any tips, please let me know below 💖😶🌫️

I still have lots of little things to prepare but it's really fun to look back at my paintings that are sometimes two years old and look back at the memories that go with them. The Moomins is clearly a tribute to the Swedish Fika (obviously with the little paw of Fika the cat) that I got to know during my trip to Stockholm a few years ago. I finally found a kannelbulle that tastes almost as good as the swedish ones, and I've been obsessed with it ever since! ☕

2024 is the year of renewal for me. After a chaotic and busy 2023, I'm finally settling down to open my online shop 🤍. There will only be prints to start with and I'm already looking forward to offering other things!
2024 is also the year of renewal, because in two months' time a tornado will be arriving in our lives 🐣 and I have no idea how this will affect my creative adventure.
2024 is the year I'd like to be more present here and above all reconnect with a more personal practice. After a year of freelance projects, I can't wait to see how I've evolved and how that will impact my paintings 💫
💖 Stay tuned 💖
