Luze illustration
The world can be damn dark. I guess that’s why I’m an illustrator — to help us forget it for just a moment.
I illustrate emotions, memory, and nature through a poetic and committed gaze. Strokes that accompany, inspire, and tell stories.
I believe in art as both refuge and bridge: a way to look beyond the unquestionable and to embrace the beauty of diversity and imperfection. In strokes that not only depict but also accompany. In the beauty found in the unusual, the silent, the everyday.
I believe creation is an act of care. A space where tenderness, strength, doubt, and hope all have room to exist.

Sometimes, projects find their true shape when two inner worlds meet.

You can request a symbolic, poetic, or ritual-style illustration inspired by a personal experience, a phrase, a photograph, or a memory. Together, we’ll create a heartfelt piece, crafted with intuition and detail, to honour what lives within you.

about me
From the intimate to the shared
Art as a way of inhabiting the world
I draw what I feel, what I observe, what we keep silent.
I’m Luze, and illustrating is my way of celebrating the everyday, diversity, who we are, and who we dream to be. I draw from what I feel and observe, to tell what sometimes can’t be said in words.
Each illustration is born from an honest search, a desire to accompany, move, and connect.
From a place somewhere between the poetic and the symbolic, I welcome you to this universe created with soul.
This space is open to you. Whether it’s a proposal, a question, a special commission, or simply a hello, I’ll be delighted to hear from you.
