Bonjour! I'm Clémentine 👋

I'm a French watercolour artist, colour maker, and the person behind Blule — painting from my sunny Sydney studio and sending colourful art around the world.

About the Name

Blule: pronounce it BLU-L, not BLUE-LÉ.

It doesn't mean anything in French or English — it's just a word I invented. A little contraction of words that feel like my art: light, blue, bleu, libellule (dragonfly), bulle (bubble), buller (to daydream). ✨

My Artist's Journey

I've been painting for as long as I could hold a brush, and started my first watercolour lessons at the age of 12.
My formal training began at Les Beaux-Arts and L'Atelier de Sèvres in France, where I developed my foundation in fine art. I then studied Product Design at Creapole, which led to a career designing luxury packaging, including perfume bottles for prestigious brands like Armani and Lancôme during my time at L'Oréal.
But my heart always belonged to painting. I started with acrylics, but fourteen years ago, I rediscovered watercolour, and everything changed. 
The luminosity, the unpredictability, the way pigments blend and flow on paper... watercolour became my true medium. There's something beautifully honest about it, you can't completely control it, and that spontaneity felt very close to who I was, and what I was looking for in painting.

The Heart of Blule

I paint with watercolour, ink, and natural pigments (and the occasional burst of acrylic), creating art inspired by the things I love:

• ✨ Empowered women
• 🌊 Surf life
• 🌿 Botanicals
• 🎵 Pop icons
• 🐉 Whimsical dragons

Blule began in my little Paris apartment in 2010. Back then, I shipped paintings from my kitchen table. Today, my art has travelled to homes all over the world, but the spirit hasn't changed: each piece is still painted by hand, with heart, brushes, and a bit of magic. 💙

From Paris to Sydney

I'm French-born but Sydney-based, and I love the mix of European artistry and Australian coastal vibes that flows through my work. When I'm not painting, you'll probably find me at the beach surfing, or experimenting with natural pigments in my studio.

Merci for Being Here 💛
