I looked at these and thought YOU painted them! I can see why you were oohing and aahing over them!
Hi Kasie
Her work is "Beauty Full".
What a wonderful source of inspiration.
Lots of love

How precious! I agree...The pictues look like the work you do. You are both inspirational!
Ever since I read "Martine au zoo" in 1993, I have admired these illustrations, but I didn't learn the name of the artist. I, too, love vintage illustrations of children. And Marlier is awesome! I'm happy to have rediscovered his work. There is a modern version of the Martine series with different illustrations. Why would anyone substitute these charming pictures! I'm buying a version of the original "Martine au zoo" today. Thanks for posting.
I enjoyed visiting your blog.
Sincerely,
Nana
