Mathieu Potvin

A graduate with a bachelor’s degree in Communication, specializing in television, he first worked as a casting researcher (Un souper presque parfait, La Guerre des clans, Le Banquier) before devoting 12 years to visual art as an illustrator. Awarded several prizes (Salon du Livre de Trois-Rivières, Applied Arts), his work has appeared in publications such as L’actualité, Le Devoir, and Québec Science, as well as in children’s books, thematic exhibitions, posters, and comic books, to name just a few. His artistic approach consists of blending mediums such as watercolor, felt-tip pens, ink, colored pencils, and Photoshop. He creates through the repetition of motifs, often made up of textures and characters.
