Wolf

Delphine Labedan by Benjamin Knibbs

I found the work of Delphine Labedan online whilst looking for Fairy Tale illustrations. Labedan’s work shows an oriental influence and the subtilty and beauty of her drawings lead us into a magical fairy tale world. I particularly like ‘The Wolf and Red Riding Hood.’ where Labedan has created a forest atmosphere that is cold and threatening, but beautiful.

Born in Pau (Aquitaine), Labedan now lives and paints in Empordà. With a mother who studied Fine Arts and a photographer father, it is not so strange that Delphine should turn out to be an artist.

She likes to paint on large surfaces of canvas or wood, and uses different techniques, such as charcoal, pastels, collage, ink, watercolor and painting, with a preference for a mixed-oil technique. Aside from her work as an illustrator, she is presently teaching drawing and painting at the fine arts school in Salt (EMBA).
