I loved being creative from the moment I could hold a pen. It took many years to realize I could make a career out of that. I then decided to study graphic design.
I’ve been working in the industry since 2017 and am self-employed since 2020. I love working with my diverse clients and their individual projects. I considered illustration as a hobby for many years because I was stuck thinking I couldn’t make money as an illustrator. But then I discorvered there is actually a demand for illustration amongst my clients. That’s when I started to sign more illustration contracts. So I’m currently on my way to shift my projects even more towards illustration.
Art is my safe haven, my relaxation, recreation and creative outlet. That’s why I always work on my own projects in my free time. When working on my personal art I can let perfectionism slide and create raw and pure artworks.
I get inspiration from nature, books, music and everyday life.
My paintings consist of anything that speaks to me. I’m experimenting with different media a lot or work on my technical skills. Oftentimes my illustrations reflect my emotions. Other times I like to tell a story that’s on my mind (concept art). I have a soft spot for painting beloved memories from my travels or daily life (urban sketching). And lastly, this wouldn’t be complete without mentioning my love for fanart.
