Benjamin Lacombe attended the ƒcole Nationale SupŽrieure des Arts DŽcoratifs of Paris (ENSAD) pursuing his education in the fine arts while also working as an advertising and animated movie artist all before completing his first comic series at the age of 19.
He wrote and illustrated his first children's book, Cherry and Olive, which was published in March 2006. The following year, it was released in the U.S. and credited as a top 10 children’s book by Time magazine.
Since, Lacombe has written and illustrated several successful books. The artist also exhibits his work on a regular basis having contributed to Ad Hoc Art (New York), L’art de rien (Paris), Dorothy Circus (Rome), Maruzen (Tokyo), among others.
