Fashion Illustrator in the Pompidieu

Here's a challenge. While in the Pompidieu Museum in Paris last month, I shot a photo os a fashion illustrator's work. She designed for the cover of Annabelle magazine. I have been trying to track her name down, online.
Des anyone know who she is?

I love her work.
Oh yes..... I believe 'she' is a 'she'.

Upcoming Stitch Painter Project


From a photo taken of an optical design at the Louvre's Decorative Art Museum. I want to see if I can retain the illusion. It looks linear and basically simple, but is it?
