Catell was born on Christmas Day to a French mother and Swiss father in
Basel, Switzerland. She moved to England in 1997, attracted by that special
British affinity for images and the big city. In London, she studied
illustration (Switzerland was far too graphic design-oriented). After
graduating, she worked as a publishing editorial asisstant in an office, but
soon decided to focus on what she loves doing and can't stop obsessing
about: expressing what she sees and feels through painting and drawing.
She went to the Royal College of Art in 2003, where she met many talented
and crazy fellow illustrators from all over the world. There, she also got a
major commission from the British Royal Mail, to produce a set of 6 stamps
with the theme food and multicultural society, two subjects that are very
close to her heart. The Queen approved of her images and the stamps were
launched.
Catell works for a variety of clients in the publishing and magazine
industries from various countries, mainly British, Spanish, French and
Swiss. She also works as an illustration tutor at a university in north
London and feels very honored to be able to guide young and talented
illustrators.
