OUR AMBASSADORS


GIRL IN RED, Norway


Caran d'Ache Writing ambassador

 
girl in red garnered international attention in 2018 with her single "I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend" which quickly went viral on streaming platforms. Her music, often described as bedroom pop for its intimate nature, resonates deeply with a generation seeking sincerity and truth. Having become an icon for LGBTQ+ youth with her candid lyrics addressing themes like love, identity, and mental health, girl in red solidified her status as a leading artist with the release of her second album I’M DOING IT AGAIN BABY! in 2024.

  • “My favourite thing about getting older is going further into my obsessions and discovering new worlds and items. When I found the 849 it unleashed a newfound love for pens. I’ve been carrying the 849 pen with me for the past 3 years now. It’s always with me. In the studio and on the road. I love journaling and I love writing music with pen to paper.”

    RUBEN BELLOSO, Spain


    Caran d'Ache ambassador for the Pastel Pencils line


    A graduate of the Seville University of Fine Art, Rubén Belloso is an artist of superlatives. He has received repeated awards from his city and faculty and also at individual and collective exhibitions in every continent, and he possesses a talent without equal for rendering shapes, shadows and materials in the purest tradition of pastels.

    By giving his works, and in particular his portraits, a hyper-real dimension, Rubén Belloso is today elevating this ancient art form to true perfection, with a touch of modernity that has made him one of the greatest talents of his generation.

  • “Growing up with tools from Caran d’Ache, it’s fair to say they played a major role in shaping my career as an artist.”

    NINA COSFORD, UK


    Caran d'Ache ambassador for the Supracolor™ Aquarelle line


    Living in Hastings, Nina Cosford is a tireless globetrotter who never goes anywhere without her sketchbook. She is a talented illustrator who depicts the eccentricities of the modern era such as the little problems of daily life through brightly coloured characters. She is often featured in magazines thanks to her inimitable style that is both colourful and full of humour.

    Her work is now also used by some of the world’s biggest brands. However, Nina Cosford also puts her talent to work on topics that are close to her heart, having created numerous books celebrating renowned female figures.
  • Discover our Supracolor™ Aquarelle products
  • “I like how easy it is to use Supracolor™ Aquarelle. A very complete range of colours and great versatility. A little extra: the body colour coordinated with the lead colour, ideal in a large kit.”

    MEIKE DE VRIES, Netherlands


    Caran d'Ache ambassador for the Luminance 6901™ line in the Netherlands

     
    Eighteen-year-old Meike de Vries lives in what might be the smallest village in the north of the Netherlands but has always had the biggest dream of becoming a full-time artist. As she was in middle and high school when the COVID-19 quarantine started, she could fully focus on developing her art, while (kinda) listening to her online classes.

    As she is always one of the youngest among other artists, she has learned to love the materials we’ve all grown up with; colored pencils. With her pencils she hopes to inspire people by drawing the most lively pieces, full of colors and emotions.
  • Discover our Luminance 6901™ products
  • “After what felt like trying out every single coloured pencil, I’m so glad I came upon the Caran d’Ache Luminance. I can’t imagine a better pencil for my passion, and with every artwork I fall in love with my materials again.”

    JP KALONJI, Switzerland


    Caran d'Ache ambassador for the Graphite RGB Line


    Born in 1973 in Geneva, Jean Philippe Kalonji is a painter, illustrator and comic book author. A true citizen of the world, he has lived and travelled in numerous countries including the US, Japan, Liberia and the UK, where he perfected his drawing techniques. The diversity of his works reveals his influences, both in his techniques and his inspirations.

    Jean-Philippe Kalonji regularly supports a wide range of causes. In 2019, within the framework of a partnership between Caran d’Ache and the ICRC (International Committee of the Red Cross), the artist created the promotional material for an 849 pen, the profits from which were donated to the ICRC. A long-standing friend of Caran d’Ache and a keen advocate of its different ranges, he is behind the illustrations decorating the packaging for the pencils in the Graphite Line RGB range.

  • “Regardless of whether you want to produce delicate work or really press on to obtain greater contrasts, the RGB pencils offer such a wide range of shades. The watercolour effect allows you to create an impression of transparency and mist, while retaining that unique grain of graphite.”

    DIEGOKOI, Italy


    Caran d'Ache ambassador for the Graphite Line


    A self-taught lover of drawing, Diego Fazio first focussed on creating Japanese-style tattoos, developing a precise and refined technique.

    However, this artist – who is now internationally renowned under the name DiegoKoi – soon discovered the delicacy and beauty that each shade of black can offer.

    His work is hyper-realist and focuses in essence on drawings of the body. Mixed with different materials and textures, he creates works that straddle the real and the unreal, blurring the line between photography and drawing. His spectacular artworks have won him many prizes and have been exhibited the world over.

  • “I draw several hours a day so I use professional tools such as Grafwood pencils, ideal because of the unique quality of their graphite and their incredible duration.”

    JON MONNARD, Switzerland


    Caran d’Ache Haute Écriture ambassador


    For his first book Et à la fois je savais que je n’étais pas magnifique [And suddenly I knew that I was not outstanding] which was published in 2017 by Éditions L’Âge d’Homme, Jon Monnard successfully combined wonderful literary flair with a critique of youth of today. Lauded by both the press and his peers, this young author entered the literary scene to great acclaim.

    Today, with the support of a grant to promote the creative arts, he has launched a project dedicated to the American novelist Francis Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda Sayre, who was sectioned in Switzerland in the 1930s. Caran d'Ache is supporting this project by making Jon Monnard its Haute Écriture ambassador.

    BEYA REBAÏ, France


    Caran d'Ache ambassador for the Neocolor™ II Aquarelle Line


    A graduate of the Saint-Luc School in Brussels and the Condé School in Paris, Beya Rebaï developed a keen interest in colour at a very young age.
