A Studio Tour With: Pauline de Roussy de Sales, Our Illustrator
All of the lovely illustrations that you see on our website and in our book, A Short Story by Artemis Design Co., have been illustrated by Pauline. During a recent visit to New York City for Fashion Week, Milicent stopped into Pauline’s studio to see where the magic happens, and to pick up a few projects that Pauline is working on for us.
Pauline holding and admiring our book. She did the beautiful illustrations of our Kilim shoes for its interior, which contains a little story about how we hand-source our magic flying carpets for our Kilim loafers.
I loved all of the little knick knacks and art works in her studio. Here at Artemis, we are a community of dreamers, so we adore anything to get our imaginations working.
Pauline's desk gets us excited; we love collaborating with artists who work in all sorts of mediums.
Pauline studied Printmaking at the Rhode Island School of Design.
She now works as a freelance Illustrator and splits her time between New York City and Paris.

One of my favorite illustrations by Pauline (above)! How cute are those little dogs? I would love for her to do one for my little mutt Gerry, who hangs out in our studio all day.
Pauline is also an amazing ceramic artist! We love her ceramic work featured on the table in the photos below.
The illustration above, Pauline did of a typical bustling scene from a Turkish bazaar--note the bins of spices and dried herbs, beautiful fresh produce, and, of course, the carpets that we source to create our Kilim shoes.
We love the view from our studio. Like Pauline's sunlit workplace, our studio overlooks the treetops and hilly streets of the colorful neighborhood of Allston, in Boston MA.
