Manon, aka Purplemay, is a freelance illustrator and designer based in Niort, France. Her world is all about color—especially purple. Since childhood, drawing has been her preferred means of expression.
She creates illustrations that celebrate nature, diversity, and the simple pleasures of life, aiming to bring joy, awaken our inner child, and invite us to slow down. Inspired by nature, landscapes, flowers, food, and femininity, her work reflects values of authenticity, kindness, and love of life. Each illustration is an invitation to see the world differently, with more gentleness, wonder, and boldness.
In three words: Colorful, flowery, warm.
