Manuella Côté, sometimes known under the pseudonym Manue, has been drawing with passion since early childhood. She has been working in the world of illustration for over 10 years and she plans to continue living this dream for a long time to come. Her brushes and pencils have allowed her to explore a large number of techniques and styles, jumping between “traditional” and “digital” mediums with ease. She realized her passion by starting her career in companies specializing in video games, such as Gorilla System and Frima Studio. Also wanting to develop on her own, she accepted a large number of freelance contracts in the field of graphics, computer graphics, and illustration. A little flame inside her burned with the desire to create and imagine without constraint and she decided, in 2011, to launch a collection of children's books under the Petit Pois Collection banner.
