Marie Cardouat

Career

Cardouat began illustrating for Editions des Correspondances, a stationery company publishing greeting cards and postcards. Having heard that Régis Bonnessée of Libellud was seeking an illustrator, she submitted a portfolio and won the commission to illustrate the cards for Dixit (2008). Since then, she has continued to illustrate games, including Marrakech (2010), Au Pays Des Papas (2010), Steam Park (2013), Abracada...What? (2014)...and then, we held hands (2015), and HOP! (2016), which she co-designed with Ludovic Maublanc. A recent game featuring her illustrations is 1001 Islands (2022), originally published as The Little Prince: Make Me a Planet (2013).
