Right in time for the inception of fall, we uploaded some fresh wallpapers, electronic greeting cards and printable pages for your Notizbuch over at Lily Lux. Furthermore, we’re posting #Herbstglück (fall happiness) on Facebook and Twitter again – if you can read a little German, you’re more than welcome to come by and brighten up your fall!… ➔
I am happy to see my infographics posters with leaf shapes, animal tracks and bird silhouettes (via Posterlounge) in another charming lifestyle blog! Anne vom Landleben framed the sheets beautifully for her green guest room. … ➔
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!
In March, I made some drafts for the packagings of Spreewälder Lutki-Schmaus and Spreewälder Fährmanns-Snack, which are being produced by the organic trademark Spreenat (Naschgarten) from local pumpkin seeds, nettle salt (Fährmanns-Snack) and beet sugar (Lutki-Schmaus), and traded locally, with a small booklet about Spreewald. … ➔
Part of the packaging design for Spreewälder Lutki-Schmaus and Fährmanns-Snack, which I drafted for organic trademark Spreenat (Naschgarten) in March, was the character design for Lutki, a friendly (but usually invisible) dwarfish legendary figure from Spreewald. The Lutki-Schmaus is composed of local pumpkin seeds and beet sugar.
»Warum fahren wir eigentlich gerne „ins Blaue“? Wieso hat unser Chef gelegentlich „eine Meise“? Und weshalb feiern wir auch mal „bis in die Puppen“? (…) Illustriert wurde das Buch von Iris Luckhaus mit liebevollen Grafiken im Sixties-Stil. Ein Grund mehr, sich nicht nur in die deutsche Sprache zu verlieben, sondern auch in dieses Buch.« … ➔
We’re delighted to see the first picture of the book »Du hast das Wort, Schätzchen! – 100 charmante Geschichten rund um die Sprache«, which I discovered today at Fräulein Nullpunktzwo. Thank you very much for the tag, Susanne! … ➔
I just received my voucher specimens for the april issue of the German »Eltern Family« magazine, for which I reworked my two-handed Finger Alphabet, and I am very happy to see it turned out real nice! … ➔
I enjoy my inbetween drawings so much right now that I’d really like to steal time for them more frequently! – This is Carmilla, who became a vampiress long ago (her unsuspecting friend used to say she has such an “old-fashioned face”), walking through the city rather early, as the evening is so stormy, rainy and wonderfully gloomy. … ➔
My life drawings now have their own profile at the Posterlounge, but are still available via Amazon oder eBay! Furthermore, there are several new sketches, including some very simple experiments with ink and watercolour experiments (see below). All of them can be bought from € 6,90 for 30×30 cm or € 9,90 for 30×40 cm!… ➔
Right in time for the meteorological inception of spring (isn’t that a reason to celebrate?!), we uploaded some fresh seasonal wallpapers and electronic greeting cards for you and your loved ones over at Lily Lux’ website!
We’d like to wish a lovely and heartwarming Valentine’s day to all of you, and that you may celebrate your affection for your sweetheart – and all your loved ones! – not only on this day of the year, but all year round!
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! … ➔
My illustration and infographic art prints in portrait and landscape format are now, after several requests, also available in 30×40 cm (for € 9,90) at the Posterlounge (also via Amazon) – because thanks to the amazing Lydia, I managed to trick the mysterious algorythm which is responsible for generating those smaller formats! … ➔
For the april issue of the German »Eltern Family« magazine, I reworked my two-handed Finger Alphabet – and I am very happy that now, even more children and grown-ups can learn, use and enjoy it! … ➔
I am very happy to be on board with Women who Draw, an awesome open directory for female illustrators from all over the world, to which each of us added an illustration of a woman. And I really like the coincidence of interaction between those drawn ladies, just like a comic!
»Each of the five projects featured below shows a strong clarity of vision and an ability to transform that vision into a fully fleshed out design. Every one of these designers have demonstrated their high level of skill and pure creativity here – two things we love to see. (…) The retro style illustrations that are well researched and carry the style through to the smallest detail. Expressive and fun vector illustrations that pop make this an engaging project even if you don’t speak the language.« – Coroflot Blog about Du hast das Wort, Schätzchen! by Iris Luckhaus… ➔
I finally translated my identification sheets for leaf shapes, animal tracks and bird silhouettes to English; they’re now available in large formats on Posterlounge (also via Amazon and eBay!), and in smaller sizes on Søciety 6! … ➔
I was very happy to see my tree leaf shape poster (available via Posterlounge) once more in the wild, this time on the chic dark walls of charming lifestyle blogger Anjiko, decorated with the first signs of spring! There’s even a contest where you can win a coupon for your own posters. – Thank you very much, dear Maria, for sending me the link! … ➔
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! … ➔
After really long time (actually, far too late :)), I now arrived on Instagram as well!
The spring preview by Duden Verlag is online – and I am very much looking forward to soon announce a truly great, informative and exciting book I illustrated a couple of months ago!
After receiving many enquiries about them over the years, I finally uploaded some of my older life class and nude sketches and drawings as art prints and to the Posterlounge! They’re also available via Amazon oder eBay. … ➔
We wish you very lovely and heartwarming holidays, and all the best for a happy and wonderful new year! … ➔
“Meine beiden kleinen Abenteurer lieben es, die Welt zu entdecken und zu erkunden. Jeden Tag neue Dinge zu erforschen. Deswegen fand ich das Poster Heimische Blattformen so wunderbar passend. Und in der schlichten Bilderleiste wirkt es noch mehr wie eine Lerntafel. Mal sehen, welche Blätter wir bei unserem nächsten Ausflug in die Natur entdecken und anhand des Posters zuordnen können.”
I was very happy to see my tree leaf shape poster (available via Posterlounge) on the nursery walls of lifestyle blogger Wunderhaftig – and I am particularly fond of the framing, which makes it look like a classical graphic training aid. Thank you very much, dear Nathalie, for the link – and to Maria for letting me know about it!
On Lily Lux’ website, the winter starts today – with the first door of our advent calendar, fresh seasonal wallpapers with illustrations from our books and specials, plus electronic greeting cards you can send to your loved ones! … ➔
In celebration of the first candlelight sunday, Lily Lux uploaded some hibernal gifts! Furthermore, you can find our favourite recipes for advent bakery and crafting in our Lily Lux Notizbuch or in this blog, and more #Winterglück.
The simple, two-dimensional DIY advent calendar we made for Lily Lux a couple of years ago (including a detailed instruction how to use it with your own images) is available as a PDF for download! Above, you can see what the calendar looks like when it’s filled, and below we’re showing some other suggestions. Have fun! … ➔
Wir freuen uns von Herzen darüber, dass Das Auge Werkschau unsere Lily Lux Magneten, meine Herzdame für das 52 Aces Reloaded Pokerdeck von Zeixs sowie mein Giraffenmädchen für Postkarten und Frühstücksbrettchen von EmpaTrain seit einer Woche auf ihrer Startseite unter der Rubrik “Die besten Portfolios” vorstellt! – Dankeschön! … ➔
I was very happy to see my tree leaf shape poster (available via Posterlounge) on the walls of the charming lifestyle blogger Juliary! Thank you very much, dear Julia, for the link – and to Maria for letting me know about it!
This morning, it smelled like fall, for the very first time this year! So we uploaded some fresh wallpapers for you at www.lily-lux.de for your computer screens or phones. And if you would like to show us how Lily looks on your devices, you’re very welcome to do so at Lily Lux’ Facebook page – we’d love to see that!… ➔
Those were my first designs for character, clothes and styling for the book “Brauchstu ma keine Doktor, brauchstu nur diese Buch! – Die Balkantherapie für Liebe, Leib und Leben” by the wonderful Mimi Fiedler, which I illustrated almost a year ago for MVG Verlag. In the book and on the cover, Mimi wears mostly the fourth outfit (striped shirt, hotpants and suspenders), and in one of the small vignettes, the blouse from the third outfit. … ➔

In the book and on the cover, Mimi’s mother and advisor Marija wears the fourth outfit, a tight red dress with simple polka dots. … ➔
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. … ➔
Mein Blattformen-Poster (erhältlich via Posterlounge) wird heute im DIY-Blog von Shesmile als “Bonusmaterial” zu einer Bastelanleitung für ganz entzückende Blättertiere gezeigt – und ich finde das eine so schöne Idee, dass ich das Bild dafür gern zur Verfügung gestellt habe. Dankeschön, liebe Elisabeth!
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.… ➔
I’m working on some confidential projects right now, which I’m not supposed to show (yet). Meanwhile, I’m sharing some Making Of for older work – like this first draft for super heroine Barbararella, which I designed and illustrated last year for an (unpublished) column in Gruner und Jahr’s “Barbara” magazine by Barbara Schöneberger. … ➔
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. … ➔
After being asked for years when my information graphics would be out als posters as well, I also reworked the finger and flag alphabets 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.… ➔
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”.… ➔
With a little delay, here are my character design sketches for super heroine Barbararella, which I designed and illustrated last year for an (unpublished) column in Gruner und Jahr’s “Barbara” magazine by Barbara Schöneberger. My designs are based on the real person’s style as well as certain typical elements of super heroines. … ➔
