Art inspired by places with a story
From historic French châteaux and charming old houses to beautiful landscapes, each illustration captures the character and little details that make a place feel so special.
I simply love bringing them to life.
Collaboration
Art that tells the story of your place
I collaborate with châteaux, boutiques, galleries, restaurants and guesthouses to create distinctive illustrations inspired by their buildings and surroundings.
From bespoke architectural portraits to illustrated postcards, art prints and unique souvenirs, each project is designed to celebrate the character of your place.
Interested in working together? I'd love to hear about your project.
Book illustration
I’m also an illustrator and artist. I spend my time creating illustrations for books, working on commissioned pieces, and adding to my collection of posters and cards.
If you’d like to work together, send me a DM.
Unique & handmade.
As a small business, my creations are not something you’ll find in every shop.
That’s what makes them truly special!
Every product is lovingly made with care :-)
And can be carefully packed and shipped anywhere across Europe.
About me
Hi, I’m Erna. I’m a freelance illustrator, artist, and small business owner living in the French countryside. I create detailed pen-and-watercolor artwork inspired by architecture, nature, animals, and the stories hidden in old buildings.
