Like most artists, the young Miléna was at her happiest when left alone with a box of crayons and a large stack of paper. Despite a pivot in her teens to study graphic design, Miléna is now a full-time illustrator, creating visually striking compositions of portraits and botanicals.
Long summers spent in her mother’s birthplace of Guadalupe had a lasting influence on Miléna’s lush illustration style, with a particular focus on the psychedelic light, colours and textures of the island.
