Coming clean.

Going through some of my stuff I found some illustrations I did a while ago. The first batch is from our holiday in Germany last spring. It’s kind of nice, coming across something you completely had forgotten about – because then will be the right time to look at them again. You’re far enough away from the time making them and any emotional bond that could mess with your view. If you like them now, you have a chance that they maybe really quite good…

The next two are from about one month ago. I wasn’t very fond of the first one while making it… but now I quite like it. Just decide for yourself…

Goodbye Summer of 2010.

I spent many glorious evenings in the warm summer air with beloved friends and colleagues. My favourite summer drinks were beer and Aperol Spritzer. My favourite pair of shoes were my sandals, my favourite bargain this red sunglasses I got at Frequency festival. But – after the summer comes the autumn and I wish you all and myself a great one!

Goodbye summer of 2010!
