I'm rather pessimistic.
But I’m stubborn. If I want to do it, I’ll do it!
I have a terrible temper
But it allowed me to fight back, not to let myself be pushed around, especially as a woman
I can't stand hypocrisy
I prefer to be honest, to say what I think, even if it hurts.
Behind the dragons
My name is Margaux, and for as long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated by creatures that do not exist.
When I was a child, I wasn't really interested in Barbie dolls. While others played princess, I collected books about dinosaurs, drew imaginary creatures, and spent hours dreaming of forgotten worlds populated by monsters, dragons, and giants.
This fascination with ancient creatures never left me. Dinosaurs were my first passion, and dragons became their natural extension.
My first real encounter with fantasy came with Harry Potter and Narnia. For the first time, I discovered a universe where you could walk through a simple wardrobe to reach another world. This sense of wonder never left me and continues to influence each of my creations even today.
My world is not limited to fantasy.
I have always been passionate about science, astronomy, and astrophysics. I love observing the sky, understanding how the universe works, and losing myself in questions that no one has yet answered.
This curiosity also led me to theology and the study of religions. Not through faith, but through history, philosophy, and an understanding of the narratives that have shaped human civilizations. Myths, beliefs, and legends fascinate me as much as the stars.
Gothic culture also holds an important place in my identity. In it, I find a taste for romantic aesthetics, cathedrals, ancient symbols, vampire stories, nocturnal creatures, and universes where beauty is often born from darkness.
What was supposed to be a simple read turned into a real obsession
For a long time, I mainly explored these worlds through movies, TV shows, and video games. Then one day, I fell into the world of Fourth Wing.
What was supposed to be a simple read turned into a real obsession. Like many readers, I discovered Rebecca Yarros's dragons, but also characters who became unforgettable. Xaden Riorson quickly became one of my favorite characters, to the point of making me rediscover the pleasure of reading.
Since then, books have taken up an increasingly important place in my life. I devour fantasy novels, spend hours coming up with theories, analyzing characters, and eagerly awaiting the next volumes of my favorite sagas.
This recent passion for reading has also inspired a new part of my work: the creation of fantasy bookmarks intended for readers who, like me, love to escape into worlds populated by dragons, magic, and unforgettable heroes.
The Brass Dragon's Lair
Today, I bring these universes to life through L'Antre du Dragon d'Airain.
Each creation begins with an idea, a character, or a dragon that has made an impression on me. Kamil or Samuel models the future figurine before printing it in resin in my workshop.
I was a waiter for a boss for years, and since COVID-19, I have changed my life, started my company, and trained in marketing on Instagram. Marketing and mastering social media is THE most important thing to sell your creations. Today, I continue to train on TikTok, Pinterest, email marketing, and even SEO on Google! And my work is paying off.
These skills blend with my creativity to give birth to dragons, fantastic creatures, bookmarks, and objects inspired by the universes I love.
My goal is not simply to make figurines. I seek to create pieces capable of making people dream, telling a story, and taking their owners on journeys into the fantastic worlds that have fascinated me since childhood.
