Line Hachem is a French-Lebanese illustrator from Paris. She draws colorful, smooth-textured illustrations portraying elusive scenes filled with pieces of strangeness.
An enthusiast of drawing since her childhood, Line Hachem’s dream was to become a comic book author. She graduated from L’école Estienne in Paris, a well-established school of communication design, teaching graphics both in traditional and contemporary forms in its curriculum. After school, she started trying out her own illustrations, while working for children’s books and other commercial graphics.
Line Hachem draws spontaneously, as opposed to her overthinking and questioning nature. Working mainly with color pencils, she starts off with sketches of compositions and lets them grow without any planning to free up her creativity. She interprets her way of work as a means of growth, saying that she likes trying things that she never thought she would. She finds inspiration in nature in its raw form, in Art Brut, an unconventional art practice that literally translates as “raw art”, and in black metal, resembling the “terrible storms” as she says.
Her compositions remind of the naive drawings done in childhood, made with colored pencils, barely depicting the intended scenery with distorted perspective attempts. Except that the sweetness in her artworks is unintentional, and her drawings are a tool for self-analysis.

French-born, Chicago-based Julia Dufossé is a self-taught designer & illustrator. Combining the inspiration from the airbrush aesthetics of the 70s and 80s with her own style in digital, she creates dazzling, dreamy, glowy, and slightly hazy illustrations.
Imogen Crossland paints scenes that reflect the moments of joy like gathering, dancing, eating, drinking, swimming, partying in her multicolored and textured works.
