Antoine Meurant

Antoine Meurant is an illustrator who lives and works in Paris. As a child, he liked to spread out his crayons on his bedroom table, and spend whole afternoons in front of a quarter-size grape. Later, he naturally opted for an image-related profession, graphic design, before turning to illustration. Since then, he has worked with communications agencies, publishers and institutions. Spending hours at his windowsill, he observes the street scene, and Paris soon becomes an important subject in his drawings. Passers-by in the streets, scenes of daily life, drawings of architecture and emblematic elements: the City of Light comes alive under his pencil, in a style reminiscent of Belgian comics.
