Noemie Boisvert Frigon is a Montreal-based illustrator with a love for digital art that has a delightfully traditional feel. After a decade spent working in the book industry in a commercial role, she now brings stories and characters to life by capturing the chaotic yet beautiful moments of childhood with her signature warmth, playfulness, and humor. In her work, she celebrates the boundless imagination of children and aims to observe the world around her with wonder and a curious mind. When she is not chasing after her toddler, Noemie can usually be found picking up a new hobby-because who needs free time?
