Portrait photo of the French artist and creator of the whimsical universe Zaboulittleworld.

From my studio near Poitiers, I bring to life worlds where light, poetry, and delicacy meet. Each illustration is an invitation to slow down, to breathe, to let imagination find its place again.

I am self‑taught, and although I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember, I have only been practising watercolour for six years.

I love the way pigments merge in water, and the touch of mystery and unpredictability that comes with it.

I am a lover of the Little Folk, Fairies, and other fantastical creatures, and despite my 55 years, I have kept my childlike soul.

Zaboulittleworld was born from my desire to create a visual refuge — a space where anyone can rediscover a little softness. My creatures, my worlds, and my colours tell silent stories, the kind one feels more than one reads.

My universe is built around fantastical worlds such as the planet Kaleidoriae, home to my fairies and extraordinary animals, but also an imaginary realm inhabited by cats from the Badabada Tribe, or birds like the Zoziaux Zolis, all of whom have names beginning with the letter Z…s Chats Badabada ou d'oiseaux comme les Zoziaux Zolis qui ont tous un prénoms commençant par Z...

My intention is simple: to offer you sparks of enchantment that soften everyday life and help you reconnect with the child who still lives within you.

I am Isabelle, an illustrator and creator of soft, colourful worlds filled with a touch of fairy‑light..
