Blanche revealed that she has been reading lots of comics ever since she was young. Around the age of 13, she decided to draw her own story and that's how comic creation entered her life.
"I loved to draw ever since I was a child. In high school, I used to draw non-stop in class. I liked other types of art as well, like theater and improv. But comics and drawing, in general, were the only things I couldn’t live without."
Blanche gets inspired by many things, it doesn’t have to be something very special. It can be a situation the artist experienced or something really random that just came to her mind.
We noticed that a lot of Blanche's recent comics feature mermaids, so we got curious whether it's a new fetish of hers! The artist replied that she was participating in a challenge called Mermay. It took place in May and she had to draw a mermaid every day. "There's a theme and lots of artists are doing it every year. I personally didn’t have time to make it for every day, but I challenged myself to do a mermaid-based comic every time I posted one for that month!"
All of Blanche's comics are made both in English and French. Since she is a French Canadian, it is important for the artist to not forget her own roots and language. For English readers, it can be a great way to learn a little bit of French as well!
"I really like to make people laugh, in real life or not. I make myself laugh with my comics, so why not share them with everyone! I love the feedback and it’s always heartwarming to see a comment about how my comic made someone's day or that they haven't laughed so much in a long time. As a content creator, I do what I enjoy, I’m having fun with it, and I don’t always think of how it’s going to affect others. But it does affect people and if I can put a little bit of joy in this world the way I can, I’m gonna do it!"
