Mélanie Gros — Author & Illustrator

Based in Marseille, France, I am a professional illustrator and author specializing in traditional, personality-filled watercolor illustrations and visual development.

Holding an Illustration degree with First Class Honours from Oxford Brookes University and having spent seven years in the UK, I blend a strong international artistic background with deep, meaningful storytelling. My work focuses heavily on dynamic character acting, the beauty and movement of water, and powerful historical or mythological narratives centered around women (from ancient legends and the french revolution to contemporary figures).

Whether exploring the world through on-location sketching or crafting rich, tailored universes for publishing and entertainment, my goal is to bring authenticity, light, and vibrant life to every story I tell.
