I usually start analog, with colors and paper. This gives my work the natural irregularity that I find important. While I apply multiple techniques of bringing ink on paper, chalk and aquarelle remains one of my favorites.


As an illustrator, I am inspired by the plants growing in my studio and all around me. My artworks combine fragile lines and always a hint of natural incidents. I often develop my work based on personal feelings, cultural developments or social incidents – I process what I experience through my work.

After digitalizing the artworks, I work out rapports, for example. That allows to apply a pattern endlessly in any direction. Always keeping the ideas and requirements of my clients and collaboration partners in mind, I create print-ready files that are ready to be used for production. For limited editions, I also apply artworks directly on textiles or canvas.
