About me

I draw quiet worlds, the characters who live in them, and the feelings they leave behind.

Hello, I'm Sarah Fournier, an illustrator and character designer based in Tokyo. I studied game art at Gobelins, l'École de l'image, in Paris, after a traditional art foundation year at NEW3DGE, where I painted in oils, sculpted and drew anatomy. Over the years my work has grown toward calm, nature and the small moments that make a person who they are.

I design characters from the first sketch to the full sheet, paint quiet places, and draw portraits that try to hold a mood rather than a likeness. I hope you find a little stillness here.
