January and February have been really intense at work, but also before and after :). My father started his latest book publishing project in June, 2021. Now, 9 months later – his “baby” is ready to be presented at different book fairs like the known German Frankfurter Buchmesse. As co-editor, I checked and reworked theContinue reading “Good Vibes Come with Stripes!”

Goodbye, Mr BI!
Incredible how fast a month can run away – January, 2022 is almost over (!) – feels like sitting in a time machine (that reminds me could be cause to start a Back-to-the-Future-marathon again one weekend:))! October 22nd, 2021 was an emotional day for me and my colleagues. It is a big move to decide,Continue reading “Goodbye, Mr BI!”
Momorable Moments
This is my last 2021’s card art post I guess (you’ll never know which pretty flash of inspiration could come over in the next couple of hours – so I’ll stay open-minded for all of what might happen ;)). 2021 was a year full of emotions: HOPE, JOY, DISILLUSION, LOSS, RELIEF … no one expectedContinue reading “Momorable Moments”
Let’s get coupled!
It was a pleasure being part of a lot of exciting Secret Mission Projects organised by friends and colleagues in the past five months. This blog post is all about the idea of portraiting LOVE :)!!! Portraiting someone means more than trying to carve out his or her “look”. It means to reflect the personContinue reading “Let’s get coupled!”
“Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost …”
A new reality has become part of our lives. We all follow the up and downs with hotspot regulations, 3G and 2G rules, antigen tests and other COVID hygiene measures day by day, week by week, month by month, for almost 2 years … The hardest part is the one to accept that the plansContinue reading ““Dance, dance, otherwise we are lost …””
From Old To New – Glama Rama
It was quite a special moment for me: walking through the streets with a couple of friends – talking, laughing – and then, there it stood: besides a big cluster of old, sleezy furniture – with a broken leg: my future “Leone” :). I carried it home and Thomas fixed the broken leg – itContinue reading “From Old To New – Glama Rama”
Secret Mission III of … Wishing you all the best, Mrs Fancy!
This blog post is dedicated to another very lovely person in my young business life – my Mrs Fancy* (in November of last year, I already wrote about my former boss Rainer)! When I started as a student worker at the company I still work for 10 years now (oh my! 10 years! That’s 1/3Continue reading “Secret Mission III of … Wishing you all the best, Mrs Fancy!”
Skate away with me
Movement, electricity, dynamics – it’s part of every kick, lift, jump or push – but also swing, drive and stretch. As you know from my Hello-post, ballet is one of my big passions and I love to draw dancers and dance-related actions. BUT – there is another attraction sprouting to be discovered and developed –Continue reading “Skate away with me”
Congrats, Jennyta! Secret Mission II of …
A month ago, my friend Sarah started to plan a big Zoom party for our friend Jennyta who passed her final secondary-school examinations (in German called “Abitur”). She collected money, sweets, little presents and vouchers from everyone and made a gift basket from all those treasures. My job was to create an unique card forContinue reading “Congrats, Jennyta! Secret Mission II of …”
Top Secret Mission I of …
My June was full of projects, but I cannot tell you about all of them by now 🤫. A lot of friends and colleagues will start a new stage in their life from July/August on. Therefore, I am pretty busy to help their friends finding individual card/gift ideas and to realise them. Then, one bigContinue reading “Top Secret Mission I of …”
