My shops at Søciety6 [US] and RedBubble [EU/US], which I recently updated with new illustrations and infographics and which in addition to art prints, posters and cards also sell printed products like curtains, pillows, blankets, carpets, bed linen, mugs, trays, boards, wrapping paper, notebooks, stickers, jigsaw puzzles, magnets, cases, bags, shirts and a whole lot of other things, offer fabulous discounts again! On Redbubble, it is 20% to 60% with the code »WHYWAIT« until November 11th, and Søciety6 also offers 35% to 50% (without code) on a wide range of articles this week. ➔
We’re taking a little break for summer – and look forward to August, when we’ll continue fresh and rested, and when I can finally show you all the wonderful projects I’ve been working on but am not supposed to show yet!
I’ve been working on my European Songbirds wall chart for several years, every now and then. It takes some effort to not just copy a photo, but to create a generalized cross-section from countless images – but that is exactly what helps with the identification! In addition to posters, notebooks, postcards and mugs as pictured above, there are bags, shirts, pillows, scarves, blankets, covers, stickers and many other products available at Redbubble and Søciety6 now. ➔
Since my field guides for nature have been printed on products on RedBubble, I’ve been asked to offer German graphics too, and now they’re available as art prints, posters, postcards, pillows, blankets, bed linen, shower curtains, bath mats, mugs, water bottles, notebooks, stickers, magnets, cases, skins, bags, shirts and more amazing products! ➔
I have recently equipped my shops at Søciety6 [US] and RedBubble [EU + US] with fresh illustrations, field guides, infographics, patterns and some winter specials – and I was amazed at all the new products there! In addition to prints, posters and postcards, there are now also printed furniture, curtains, pillows, blankets, carpets, bed linen, shower curtains, bath mats, coffee mugs, water bottles, trays, boards, wrapping paper, notebooks, stickers, magnets, cases, skins, bags, picnic blankets, shirts and much more – and some of them now with my designs! ➔
We’re taking a little break for summer – and look forward to September, when we’ll continue fresh and rested, and when I can finally show you all the wonderful projects I’ve been working on but am not supposed to show yet!
With the series Lola macht Urlaub, I experiment with new techniques, patterns and colours between other projects. Inspired by almost summerish days, I tried to picture the slothy happiness of a warm, sunny afternoon by the sea. ➔
Via Instagram, I discovered lots of cards which DIY bloggers crafted with the stamp and die set “Gerti geht baden” (Gerti goes swimming) by Charlie & Paulchen – and some of them are so amazing, unique and full of stunning ideas that I just can’t stop looking, so I thought it would be nice to show them here and recommend those bloggers! ➔
Gerti, the DIY dressup doll I designed, styled and illustrated as stamps and dies for the online shop Charlie & Paulchen, just got her third set of clothes and accessories for the summer! The fresh set is called »Gerti geht baden« (Gerti takes a bath), and it contains everything you need for a lovely day full of fun by the sea or by the lake! ➔
With the series Lola macht Urlaub (Lola is on vacation), I experiment with new techniques, patterns and colours inbetween other projects. Inspired by late winter, I tried to catch a summer evening in a French café here. ➔
“Feminine illustrations by Iris Luckhaus on The Creative Finder” [TCF on Twitter, 11.9.2017] – Thank you!
Inbetween, and with quite some longing for summer warmth and vacations, I complemented my monochromous “Seascape” series with a jackknife into the ocean, and soon this will be availbale as an artprint! ➔
Inbetween, I carefully reworked the very first, stormy scene from my “Seascape” series – and soon, the fashionista on an ocean liner will be available as an artprint, next to the other parts of that series! ➔
I really like those bichrome book illustrations from the Sixties, and for a long time, I wanted to try out how that style might work with my girls. Today, as the weather is nice, I long for Paris, and I’m waiting for some client feedback, I’ve drawn Amy (who likes to call herself “Aimée” in Paris), all dressed up for a walking her little dog, May, in the city. ➔
While I’m working on confidential projects which I can’t share here, I’d like to show some in-between personal work. Here are further tests with bichrome vacation motives, which I’d really like to print myself someday. ➔
After being asked time and again when my nature infographics would become available as posters, I finally revised and uploaded my identification sheets for Birds at Flight / Birding – for large formats, to Posterlounge (e.g. via Amazon and eBay!), for small formats, to Artflakes, and for all sorts of products, to Søciety 6 and RedBubble.
After being asked time and again when my nature infographics would become available as posters, I finally revised and uploaded my identification sheets for Common Animal Tracks / Trails – for large formats, to Posterlounge (e.g. via Amazon and eBay!), for small formats, to Artflakes, and for all sorts of products, to Søciety 6 and RedBubble.
After being asked time and again when my nature infographics would become available as posters, I finally revised and uploaded my identification sheets for common European Tree Leaves – for large formats, to Posterlounge (e.g. via Amazon and eBay!), for small formats, to Artflakes, and for all sorts of products, to Søciety 6 and RedBubble.
Emmy und Patty, which I drew a couple of years ago for a breakfast board for EmpaTrain, are now – slightly reformatted – available as postcards as well! The giraffe, in its role as a symbolic animal for empathy, twas supposed to be a central element in this illustration, and how “Empathy means understanding each other without words”. ➔
After being asked for years when my information graphics would be out als posters as well, I reworked the identification sheets for leave shapes, animals tracks and bird silhouettes, added three different fonts (styles: school, retro and script) and uploaded them. Large formatted posters and art prints are available via Posterlounge now (soon also on Amazon and eBay!), and smaller formats and postcards are available via Artflakes as well. ➔
And how very awesome to discover a few days later that Emmy und Patty (my breakfast board for EmpaTrain) had been featured in the Designtaxi Newsletter as “Portfolio of the Day”!
I had a little time in between and tried some new styles with old poses. It’s so much fun to work a little rougher and with only two colours! And to think about making my own screen prints. ➔
Those girls are a lot of fun to draw right now (especially as the hair is completely black and I don’t have to draw the usual strands which look pretty but are a terrible lot of work) – slowly this is becoming a series, and maybe prints at some point? ➔
I just started to scan some of my small, simple in between sketches and to try out some new styles… which is great, great fun. And it looks like the greyish seascapes are slowly becoming a series, following the first try last year (image below). ➔
Today, the freshly printed very first IO Sedbook by the Illustratoren Organisation arrived in my mailbox, and I’m on a double page filed under “Style und Fashion”! ➔
For the beginning fo summer, we uploaded some fresh wallpapers and electronic greeting cards to www.lily-lux.de – and there’s a special application on Facebook friends that enables you to post tiny little gifts from Lily Lux’ world to your own or your friends’ profiles. We hope you enjoy decorating and sending!
After receiving the Zeixs Cube “Poster Design II”, I found the “Illustration II” in my mailbox today – it contains splendid twelve(!!!) pages with my girls, some of them unpublished scenes from Lily Lux… Thank you very much, Marc!!! ➔
Illustrations for a material brochure by Schock, a producer of granite sinks. My briefing was to contrast two different material lines by using the idea and mood behind them. So, this is my design for the younger, more trendy and astonishingly colourful Cristalite series: Three friends take a break from shopping, chat, drink coffee and eat pastel coloured cupackes in a street café. ➔
Designs for an (unpublished) brochure by Schock granite sinks. The idea was to contrast two very different materials, their image rather than the actual product. This is my illustration for the classic and classy series Cristadur. ➔

… because I discovered my girls again in Taschen’s “Illustration Now!” Calendar!
I just finished this breakfast board design for EmpaTrain, a German company that specialized in nonviolent communication and mediation and is mostly based on empathy. As a symbol for empathy, the giraffe was supposed to be center of this design. Subtitle: “Empathy means understanding each other without words”. 
➔
Today, I found the splendid Zeixs Cube “Best Of Greeting Cards” in my mailbox – and there are eight(!!!) pages printed with my girls, beneath others there is Lily Lux, the famous snow Miss, and many more… thank you so much, Marc und Sahba, this is gorgeous!!!
Today, I found my copies of the Taschen Illustration Now! Calendar 2012 in the mailbox… and flipped anxiously through all the 365 pages, to find two(!) of my girls on May 30th and August 14th – how great! ➔
Lily Lux hatte nach einigen eiskalten und verregneten Wochen eine wunderbare Idee: Die Regenschirmmitnahme für spätsommerliches Kaiserwetter! Und im Nachhinein scheint es so, als hätten alle Teilnehmer (Dankeschön! ♥) ihre Schirme tatsächlich mitgenommen (insbesondere an den Wochenenden!) – das Wetter war nämlich herrlich: warm, sonnig, trocken und endlich, endlich sommerlich! Ist es nicht wunderbar, dass das mit den Wundern und dem Dranglauben manchmal wirklich funktioniert?! – Pst: Wer noch mitmachen möchte, kann das hier tun!
So langsam wird es Herbst – die Tage werden merklich kürzer und wir haben auch schon das erste rote Blatt fliegen sehen und die erste Kastanie gefunden. Regenschirme, Gummistiefel und Ingwerteebeutel liegen bereit, das Wohnzimmerpicknick wird langsam zur festen Größe und wir denken so langsam auch über #Herbstglueck nach. Und doch wären so ein paar richtig sonnige und warme Spätsommertage noch schön…
Lily Lux hatte eine Idee: Die Regenschirmmitnahme für spätsommerliches Kaiserwetter“Meistens regnet es ja nur dann, wenn man keinen Schirm mit nach draußen nimmt. Das kennt Ihr doch auch, oder? ➔
On Lily Lux’ index page, we now installed a little daily calendar that shows all or favourite annual holidays, days of action and memorials*. And we sometime announce them on Facebook as well, and somtimes we have little online celebrations. Today, for example, it’s the most wonderful “It’s gonna be alright”-day, one of our all-time favourites. And in the past weeks, we had a shoting star day, a book lovers day, a day of aunts and uncles, dog day, kissing day, chocolate day and star celebratiosn (at the same day, isn’t that beautiful?), the day of the tree and – last but not least! – raspberry cake day.
* The list is part of our Lily Lux Notizbuch as well!
