Vacances de rêve #[nn]

Ardem's Vacances de Rêve arrives from Dynamite in 2014 as a sun-drenched adult album, its cover featuring a blond, blue-eyed woman sensuously enjoying a melting red-and-green popsicle against a clean white background. Every line — from her languid expression to the dripping ice — is rendered entirely by Ardem, who handles pencils, inks, and color solo, giving the artwork a seamless, warmly saturated look. At 14.80 EUR it's an accessible entry point into Ardem's playfully indulgent style.
