The Illustrator

Since graduating from the University of Montreal’s landscape engineering school, France Cormier has made her way in the worlds of art and design. She has been drawing ever since she can remember, wearing her pencils down to a nub in elementary school instead of playing with dolls. In her initial career as a landscape architect, she conceived and designed several parks, gardens, and public spaces. Nature and art fascinate her. Gradually, the desire to depict daily life and stage scenes with characters drove her toward a second career, in illustration, to which she now devotes all her time, drawing big adventures for little kids. She published Tellement sauvage! [So Wild!] with d’Eux in 2019 and Il ne faut pas mettre les enfants au congélateur [Don’t Put Kids in the Freezer] in 2021.
