(🇫🇷 en commentaire) Hello, lovely soul❣️ I’m Eva, a live event illustrator based in Paris.
I’m originally from Slovakia, and life first swept me into the world of modeling. For nearly five years, Asia became my second home. But as glamorous as that sounds, after years of traveling, I deeply missed where my heart truly belonged: art and creativity. As a child, I was always drawing and dreaming of a future in art. Life took its turns, and I quietly buried that dream for a while.
Last year, after many moments of doubt and questioning if I could really do this, I found the courage to pick up my pencils again. Spring 2025 became the season everything changed. I did my very first live drawings, opened my website in May, and to my surprise, your requests and messages began to flow in. Every single booking, every kind word, every positive feedback helped me believe. You make my dream possible, and I am endlessly thankful. 🥹
Now, I get to work in breathtaking places, from gorgeous weddings to special brand events, meeting amazing people and creating memories on paper. 🎨
Here, I will share not only my creative journey and behind-the-scenes peeks from events, but also snippets of everyday life and moments at home with my three 😽 fluffy assistants, Shinshi, Taigi and Ňufa (in Slovakia).
Thank you for joining me, following along, and for your patience with my French. It is still a work in progress.

If you’re looking for a truly unique experience for both you and your guests, live wedding illustration is one of the most memorable additions you can include.
Eva creates elegant, hand-drawn portraits throughout the celebration, capturing guests in real time as they enjoy the day.
Instead of a traditional wedding favour, each guest leaves with a personalised illustration — a keepsake they’ll genuinely keep long after the wedding.
