Life will put stones in your way. It's up to you to decide if you make it a wall or a bridge.
Elodie BLOUIN was always drawn to models and drawing as a child so it's only natural that her studies led her to landscaping and urban planning. She learnt all kinds of modelling and plastic art techniques so she could train in an industry she loved. However, she wanted to pay the bills and have a family so Elodie plodded through different jobs outside the art sector. Sad circumstances saw her return to art in 2015. After one of her two children was diagnosed with a neurodevelopmental disorder, Elodie stopped working to become a full-time carer. She was forced to stay at home so she seized the opportunity to spend her free time creating. It was more than a professional project; it was an escape. Elodie set up her own small business and launched the Bicoques En Catimini brand.
Self-taught Elodie BLOUIN never learnt to draw or paint. She learnt to create shapes by observing figures. She makes a basic miniature model then uses a range of mixed techniques to give it texture and bring out her creations' 2D aspect. Elodie sometimes adds a personal and original touch to her pieces with string, cardboard or other items that create texture. Elodie has a love for urban planning and architecture so she depicts places she has visited or that have made their mark on her. She loves seeing other artists' work, not for inspiration but to create her own technique. She draws inspiration from everyday life and goes with her gut.
