Coco de Paris

Coco De Paris is the artist name used by a French male artist based in France, who works within mixed media based designs. His designs focus on using acrylic paints or inks to create and rendered images on top of antique french paper from books that are over 200 years old. The idea of combining vintage paper with paint formed from the initial idea of joining Old with the New as part of his art. He also states that the vintage paper brings out the vibrancy of the image he had created. Coco De Paris began selling his work on Etsy in Febraury 2011; since then he has sold over 14,000 copies of his artwork with very good feedback. Many publishers from around the world are interested in his work for publishing posters, greeting cards, etc. He is currently working with a US WorldMarked Company who plan to edit a lot of products using some of his designs: mugs, soap, notebooks, towels, phone cases, etc.
