MAÏLYS PITCHER

Illustrator

Maïlys Pitcher is a designer and matte painter working in the animation industry in Vancouver, and an illustrator in her free time. She has always been passionate about drawing and story-telling. She grew up in a bilingual family of artists, surrounded by illustrated books, paintings and French comic books, and soon knew she wanted to make art her career. In high school, she won a national drawing contest and illustrated her first children's book. Since then, she has done more illustration jobs, worked on art commissions and various designing projects. In her art, she wants to tell a story and engender emotions to the viewer. Lighting and colours are her favorite part of research, and she is fascinated by how they can affect and give a mood to a piece.
