Nathalie Seïdou is a graduate of the Institut Saint Luc in Brussels. She has worked in the fashion industry and at the Brussels Opera, and has taught art at all educational levels, including art colleges and vocational schools. Today, she works full-time as an illustrator. Her colorful and poetic style gives her drawings a surrealistic quality. She has already illustrated several children’s books. Even as a child, she loved fairy tales, fashion, movies, and books, and through her artistic work, she aims to show that art enables children—just like their parents—to simply be themselves in the world.
