Dear Family

The wacky russian part of my family from 1850.

Happy couple and squirrel

These are illustrations I did some years ago. Just found them at the bottom of a box

Nachtigall Bastelbogen #2

Here are some of the backgrounds and elements for my film in colour.. finally

Good morning

To take a little break from work: some drawings from my coffee-shop

Some colourkeys made by my colleague Matthias

Hooray!

I finally can start with my shortfilm. This is my small workplace which has a very organized chaos

Nachtigall Bastelbogen

Today: The garden.
The elements just need to be cut out and placed wherever liked on the Background. voila, fertig ist der Garten.

Musee de la Chasse

Those two strange guys I met at the "Musee de la Chasse et de la Nature" in Paris.
Its a nice little Museum with lots of stuffed animals and bizarre and curious objects.

Happy new year

Rennhahn and Darling

while the racing-rooster is on his race course, his darling is partying

cat sitting

i was taking care of susannes cat george one weekend. he does not much resemble the cats in my drawing, but he´s quite charming

Sketchbook Valence

me and my two friends on a train travel from lyon to valence.



another train from paris to valence with wolf and deer

irish pub valence

ah well... in each town there must be an irish bar. but this one in valence is a really nice one. one saturday night there was the owner with his buddys playing evergreens. in this case it was "haleluja". most of the people where outside on the street so it was only me, another guest and the bartender inside to enjoy the music. it was almost like a privat concert. very nice. i´ll go there again for sure.

valence girls and bavarian wanderburschi

i´m back in france. and it´s great: i went hiking and had a "monaco" in a bar. it´s beer with syrup, mostly grenadine, so it´s extra sweet.
also in valence: more girls than boys in the bar... very strange

Gärtnerglück

some colour sketches with my new wax-pastels.

Eulen

In my favorite Bar "Potemkin" with some Singapore Sling and Schnapps, i made this sense-free drawing. I think the wallpaper inspired me somehow

Halle girls

At another place some time later with more Halle girls and one Halle boy

Halle girls

I don´t know why there are so many girls in Halle...I was sitting in a bar and there was only one man among girls. It was not worth drawing him

kartoffelbauern

The last half year i was working in Halle, a small eastgerman city. Now that i´m almost done with my job there, it´s time to post some drawings i did during this time

Rotkäppchen

Sonntagmorgen

Happy Ukulele

some drawings from my sketchbook

Bonjour Mesdames, Messieurs

work in progress

finally i finished the wolf.
acryl on canvas, 100x150 cm

Aus der Heimat. These are the beautiful tradtitional dresses of the region i come from: Hessen, Germany. I found an old photograph of these two girls at my grandma´s. They looked a bit odd and awkward and inspired me for this illustration.

Filmproject

this is one background design for my shortfilm project

The sheep and wolf have very different backgrounds, yet they make a nice couple.
The sheep was inspired by an clothes shop at the airport of Milan. It was in it´s label. The wolf came later and it was my childhood-nightmare when I read "The Neverending Story" by Michael Ende.
