An exclusive print signed by the Julie Mellan accompanies the art book!

About the book

Julie Mellan is unsurpassed when it comes to bringing to life animals that are tender and mischievous, dreamy or spirited. Each of her illustrations is imbued with the magic of childhood, the essence of which she marvelously succeeds in capturing.

Instants is Julie Mellan's first artbook, featuring more than hundred superb watercolour illustrations of animals, all expertly rendered in an amusing act of play or thoughtful repose.

Whether you're a fan of illustrations or already familiar with Julie Mellan's world, you'll be seduced by the atmosphere, colours and emotions of each illustration.

Organized according to the rhythm of the seasons, this artbook is a treasure trove of gentleness and poetry.

With a foreword by Loïc Jouannigot!

About the artist

Born in Annecy (France) in 1988, Julie Mellan is an illustrator. She has been drawing every day since she could hold a pencil. As a child, she was fascinated by the animals in the Disney and Beatrix Potter classics; then, at the dawn of adolescence, by the characters in Blacksad (Juan Díaz Canales and Juanjo Guarnido, published by Dargaud).

For almost ten years, she has published numerous children's books in France and abroad, notably with Penguin Random House (The Last Rabbit), Lire c'est partir (La Moufle), MK Kids Books (Tizzy Throws a Fizzy) and Fleurus Mame (Les belles histoires de grand-mère).
