Happy Halloween! :) … ➔
For a client who doesn’t want to be mentioned, I’ve made some drafts to illustrate the Bulgarian fairy tale “The little Girl and the Winter Whirlwinds”. The project evolved in a different direction, but those drafts have led me to a new style – so I’d like to show them, even though they are unfinished and I most likely won’t finish them properly. … ➔
We wish you very lovely and heartwarming holidays, and all the best for a happy and wonderful new year! … ➔

For Charlie & Paulchen, I already designed, styled and illustrated Gerti, the craftable dressup doll, and some seasonal outfits for her – and now, there are three cute little Santas for christmas cards and gift tags following!

In february, I was so happy about the first signs of spring that I started to draw Flora, walking through the forest.
