A compulsive draughtsman as a child, Quentin studied law and philosophy and obtained a master's degree in international law, before devoting himself to illustration. He then developed his drawing skills over several years, during which time he also worked as a tour guide, a job he still enjoys.
Guided by his inspirations, including Tomi Ungerer, Saul Steinberg, Sempé, Quentin Blake or Seymour Chwast, he follows in the footsteps of those graphic artists and cartoonists of the second half of the 20th century whose pen is both gentle and sharp.
His world is composed over the course of his sketchbooks, often inhabited by a floral and ornithological imagination. A great observer and walker, he is inspired by the daily life of his contemporaries to create images of melancholic and tender irony.
In parallel to his personal work, he is now turning to collaborations with the press or with brands, as recently for Les Echos, Orange or Hermès.
