A glimpse into the creative world of Capucine Mattiussi.

StickerApp: How would you define your style?

Capucine: After an exhibition, I saw my work described as "sweet but psychedelic," and I thought it was super cool, so I've stuck with it since!

StickerApp: What's your favorite technique?

Capucine: I would say acrylic painting on wood. There's something magical about working by hand. Currently, I'm using Posca pens a lot, water-based paint markers. I created a travel journal with them in Mexico, and I really love the result!

StickerApp: Who or what's your biggest inspiration?

Capucine: Without a doubt, music and album covers. I always create while listening to music; it helps me immerse myself in a creative mindset. Sometimes, I get lost in record stores to find old vinyl records. A place of images and sounds!

StickerApp: How did it all start?

Capucine: I've always been passionate about visual art and imagery, but since I'm not very good at photography, I turned to drawing to express my ideas more easily. And it clicked!

StickerApp: Do you have a tip for those who are starting out?

Capucine: Asking for feedback on your work is essential for progress. It's quite a solitary profession, so it's important to be able to discuss it. Of course, it's important to filter opinions and follow your instincts.
