Emilie Seron was born on the 2nd of August, 1978.
She studied illustration at the Institut Saint-Luc in Brussels and has attended etching classes at the Fine Arts Academy of Uccle for several years.
Nowadays, she draws for the press (Victoire, the week-end supplement of the daily newspaper Le Soir) as well as illustrations for childrens books. She also continues to use the etching technique as well as drawing around literary themes. She finds her inspiration from several sources : Jean Ray, Michel de Ghelderode, Guy de Maupassant, Fedor Dostoïevski, Nicolas Gogol, Edgar Allan Poe… Her artworks have in common a dark, cruel, sometimes fantastic quality. They are populated with troubled, secret and solitary characters.
Her illustrations have been selected at the Illustration Contest of the International Fair of Bologna and her etchings have been selected for the etching and printed image Prize of La Louvière as well as the Arts Prize of the Brabant Wallon.
She obtained a Scholarship supporting artistic creation from the Communauté Française.
