“Such a beautiful drawing!”, “Mum, look, the lady is drawing on the wall and it’s pretty!”, “You should do this for a living”, “It feels so good to see a bit of nature, and a human touch too.”
No professional reviews here, just spontaneous little comments from curious customers, touched as they watched me draw.
In a world ruled by AI, there’s something wonderfully grounding about picking up chalk and Posca markers and drawing on real surfaces you can actually feel and touch.
Thanks to the store manager’s enthusiasm, I was able to happily doodle across several walls of the shop. With my ladder set up right in the middle of the customers, I started working on my very first mural pieces.
The brief was simple: nature, deliciousness, and Savoie. A bold challenge for someone from the Hautes-Alpes… but what a joy to bring to life the iconic mountains of Chambéry: the Croix du Nivolet and Mont Granier.
Hopefully, this is just the start of a long series.
So tell me… could your wall use a new look?
