Born in Langon, Gironde, 3 October 1969,^[1][2] Sandrine Revel spent three years at the École des beaux-arts de Bordeaux [fr] and graduated.^[2]

In 1996, she published her first album, Jouvence La Bordelaise,^[2] based on a script by Frédéric Bouchet and, at the same time, she drew for Sud Ouest Dimanche and Milan Presse.^[2]

In 1999, based on a script by Denis-Pierre Filippi [fr], Revel drew the children's comic strip, Un drôle d'ange gardien.^[3] The album earned her the Prix jeune espoir at Quai des Bulles [fr] in 2000,^[4] and, in 2001, the second volume, Un zoo à New York, won the Prix Alph-Art jeunesse at the Angoulême International Comics Festival.^[5]

The following year, she published Le 11e jour, a testimony of the September 11 attacks in 2001.^[6] She joined forces with Claude Bourgeyx [fr], who wrote the script for her for Monsieur Régis, published in 2009.
