Encaustic Artist
I am finally back. And no, I’m not talking about physically. Physically, I have been back home in Auvergne for a little while now. I’m talking about mentally.

But bear with me—my new website was kind of ready about six months ago, and then I decided to move country—move my business, my life, everything. So, the website had to be redone—completely—into a version that speaks from France now, not
