Illustrations

Most of the illustrations that I’ve uploaded were for stories and blogs. I did experiment a lot in the years and what you see here is a part of the results. The basis is always a drawing of some kind, which gets embellished by ink, painting, photo or computer (and sometimes all of them). If you are interested in hiring me for an illustration it’s very fine if you point out which style you would like. I will try to accommodate as much as possible. At least in this way you get a sense of my range and my limitations.
