Anthology | Mermay’s off to new Adventures (Part III)

“She had a thing for those sailors, and they had a thing for her. Unfortunately, humans didn’t last long in her element.”

I am so happy and a bit proud that I managed to board with #Mermay this year – and thrice! I found Sunday’s theme – #Sailor – so inspiring that I stole some more time to finish another drawing: Mermay on her way to new adventures. ➔

Anthology | Mermay and her Souvenir (Part II)

“She had a thing for those sailors, and they had a thing for her. Unfortunately, humans didn’t last long in her element.”

I am so happy and a bit proud that I finally managed to board with #Mermay this year – and twice! I found Sunday’s theme – #Sailor – so inspiring that I stole some more time to finish another drawing: Mermay and her Souvenir! ➔

Anthology | Mermay and her Sailor (Part II)

“She had a thing for those sailors, and they had a thing for her. Unfortunately, humans didn’t last long in her element.”

Feature | Article about Spawning in Slate Magazine

Self portrait of slightly detail-obsessed illustrator and designer Iris Luckhaus sitting in front of her display, which is showing an old red car with a happy elderly couple in front of the Eiffel Tower, on a full-width desk with plenty of drawers, in a rather crowded and colou´rful studio. The illustrator is wearing braided and updone red hair with her glasses on top, dressed in a black pullover, old jeans and red flipflops, and holding a pen and a mug in her hands. She is turning around on her chair and smiling at the welcome visitor! In the window, you can see a winter tree with songbirds and feeders, colourful hot-air balloons, a city skyline at a distance, and a very blue sky with a single cloud. On the wall behind the artist's display, you can see lots of small pictures of her illustration and design work. On the desk and on the ground, drawing supplies, project boxes, tiny figurines and other studio necessities are taking up space. The bin is full of paper.
