Portrait of Breton artist, plant paintings Brittany

Measure out the right amount of water, press the brush more or less hard, be careful not to overdo it, wait for it to dry and then start again... Watercolour is complicated!

But with Blanche, nothing could be simpler. Meticulous and luminous, Blanche is just like her watercolours. We've fallen under the spell of her paintings, with their thousand bluish petals, and decided to share them with you.

Brittany, flowers, a little water, colour and a few brushstrokes: this is Blanche's world. Fascinated by flora from an early age, when she spent her days at her grandparents' nursery, the young Breton watercolourist decided to set up her own business Leaubleue in 2018.

And yes, the plants of Brittany aren't just used to make your Algologie creams... they're also an inexhaustible source of inspiration for young artists, such as Blanche :)

Blanche's idea: to make watercolours accessible to everyone

Before devoting herself entirely to watercolour painting, Blanche was a stylist and textile designer. Creative, independent and resolutely inspired by her native Brittany, she left the major ready-to-wear groups to return to the land of her childhood and found her own brand, Leaubleue.

But Blanche is anything but a solo artist! She has just one idea in mind: to share her watercolour skills and her passion for botany with as many people as possible. She offers introductory watercolour workshops in Brittany, in Vannes and Rennes, or online via social networks. Do you dream of taking the plunge? So grab your paintbrushes and your networks! Follow Blanche's tutorials on her YouTube channel: Leaubleue, or on her Instagram account: @leaubleue. She also gives access to video lessons on her website: https://www.leaubleue.fr/pages/cours-en-ligne

Après cela, vous ne passerez plus de vacances en Bretagne sans vous attarder sur les couleurs et les formes de la végétation, et qui sait ? Vous deviendrez peut-être à votre tour des aquarellistes accomplies !

Des aquarelles bucoliques pour toutes les occasions

Et si vous n’avez pas la patience et le talent de Blanche, pas d’inquiétude. Blanche vous propose de jolies aquarelles pour décorer les murs de votre salon, des cartes postales fleuries pour envoyer des pensées à vos proches, des notebooks adorables pour vos to do list ou vos récits de voyage, des faire parts sur-mesure pour un mariage, une naissance, et toute autre festivité. À ne surtout pas manquer !
