Justine Duhayon was born in 1988, Lille, France.

A self-taught painter and writer grew up in an atmosphere marked by both travel and creation as a vital link between the inner and outer worlds.

Literature is what won most of her favor and led her to pursue her studies in Paris. It was not until 2011, after two years of preparatory classes at Lycée Molière and a third year in the degree of arts at the Sorbonne,  that she decided to devote herself exclusively to painting and writing.
