If you've lived or spent any extended period of time in the city of
Sheffield, Florence Blanchard is an artist that you'll be aware of,
whether you know her name yet or not.
"The power to translate a feeling or an idea in shapes and colors, the ability to make an impression on people, the chance to show my vision of things, is like an eternal thirst."
"I suddenly understood how that piece of paper could connect with other pieces of paper and become a flower. It was like an enlightenment. It's like opening a little door in your brain and allowing new ideas to come."
"Among my illustrations, the ones I prefer are mostly those that emerge from inside rather than outside. Sometimes I conceive them when I'm drifting into sleep."
