– Mara's Sketchbook is a melting pot of everything she likes to draw, all the styles she likes to experiment with. This collection will reveal the artistic personality of this designer who loves above all to work in spontaneity and likes what is sketched, thrown.
– Women are featured throughout the sketchbook. In Mara's universe, they are sometimes sirens, corseted “Belle Epoque” pin-ups, or “art nouveau” inspired by Alfons Mucha; they escape from the Victorian era, from a fantasy or even steampunk atmosphere. Period costumes, garters, nudes... Eras and universes collide and women are magnified.
– Mara also gives us her most personal and darkest sketches on the theme of impossible love, as well as never-before-seen sketches from her Clues series, character research, fan art, and research for more projects” cartoon”.
– Who is Mara? Margaux Kindhauser, alias Mara, was born in 1983. Her first comic book series, Clues, of which she was a screenwriter, designer and colorist, was published by Akiléos. 3 volumes of this thriller with a Victorian atmosphere have already been published, the 4th is planned for 2014.
