Marguerite Sauvage has started an animation firm called Cappuccino Studio with some colleagues in France. The just launched website features a number of projects, as well as an excerpt from the pilot episode of an educational series for children that features an otter as the central character and focuses on various international cultural topics.
Congratulations go out to Marguerite and everyone else at Cappuccino Studio!
Marguerite Sauvage has illustrated for French fashion brand Longchamp. The illustration can be seen in the windows of Longchamp boutiques around the world.
Longchamp wanted to create a “family portrait” using Marguerite’s unique animal-people. Each “family member” is printed separately on cardboard and carries one of the handbags from Longchamp’s current collection. Marguerite also designed the wood-style graphic that is used in the background.
Marguerite Sauvage has artwork in Curvy 5, an art exhibit and book featuring 100 of the world’s best female artists. The book was created by the the people at YEN magazine, Australia’s #1 independent magazine for women. Other featured artists include Kat Von D, Kukula and Amy Sol, among others.

Marguerite Sauvage and Catalina Estrada both have artwork in Die Gestalten Verlag’s Illusive 2- Contemporary Illustration and its Context, which was released October 2007. Since the publication of the first Illusive book the demand for illustration has grown- and with it it’s range of function and method. This development is confirmed by the variety of international illustrators and work that appear in Illusive 2. The book features a broad range of work, including personal work, fashion illustration and commercial projects, revealing current developments and the various approaches that coexist today. Commentary by leading design agencies provide context and surprising insight into techniques, methods and motivations.
