Hello! 

My name is Tamia Baudouin, I am a French artist living in a Japanese remote island.
I make roughs and storyboards, character designs, concept arts and vis dev, animated gifs, illustrations and comics.
I also do workshops about comics with kids, teenagers and fearless adults.

I have worked for many clients in these different fields such as Casterman, Delcourt, Les éditions de la Table Ronde, Kùscomics, Coconino Press, Beehives Books, Topo, French TV Arte, Habitat, Hennessy,  Ramona Production, Agence Cake Design, musician band Rive, various municipalities, schools, hospitals and associations...

I can communicate in French, in English (but my accent is excruciating) and in Japanese (with enormous limitations). 

Feel free to contact me.​​​​​​​
