There’s a sweetness to each of Virginie Maillard’s pieces. A French computer artist from Burgundy, Virginie has that rare ability of evoking childhood memories. Whether it’s the thrill of riding a bike for the first time or the comforting feeling of always having a friend, through stuffed animals, each experience is as special as the next. What I enjoy most about her work is that she shows children in a contemplative state, perhaps sad or distraught over the day’s events, but strong and resilient enough to carry on.
