Gaëlle Hersent

drawing

Born in 1984, Gaëlle Hersent devoured books at a very early age, and told herself that she would like to draw for the novels she read.

After a baccalaureate L with an option in plastic arts, she joined the comic strip course at the Beaux-Arts d'Angoulême and then the EMCA (School of Animation), also in Angoulême.

After having worked for a few years in animation cinema, notably on the feature film Ernest et Célestine and for the series, she ventured into comics and illustration for children.

In 2015, Sauvage, a biography of Marie-Angélique Leblanc, 1712-1775, was published by Éditions Delcourt, based on a scenario by JD Morvan and Aurélie Bévière.
