About

Berlin-based illustrator and visual artist working across editorial illustration, book design, screen printing, and visual identity.

My hands-on experience runs from screen printing production to graphic design and, most recently, set design for film. I like projects that ask for a strong visual voice character-driven illustration, considered composition, and a feel for print as much as pixels.

Comfortable working solo or as part of a creative team, and always glad to adapt my style to what a project needs.

This project presents a illustrated vinyl cover design.
The cover is a visual response to the music, focusing on mood, rhythm, and emotional atmosphere rather than literal representation.
The design explores composition, color, and visual balance, treating the vinyl cover as a standalone visual statement connected to the emotional character of the sound.

A short illustrated comic following an alien on a routine mission to Earth — except he can’t stop thinking about the dog he left behind. Between briefings, scanning equipment, and a hidden treehouse, the story plays with longing and homesickness through a sci-fi lens.

Full illustration and narrative development: character design, page layout, color, and visual storytelling, created digitally with a hand-drawn, textured finish.
