What you see here is 99% commissioned illustration, most of it for Mags and Newspapers.
I'm a Communication-Designer from Germany, who mainly does illustration, freelancing from 1996.
The core of my illustrated work is for Editorial, but I also do Books and much more.

Note: I look for Rep. in U.S. & Britain
- please contact me! Thank you!

My work very often is a combination of different elements to combine ideas into final art,
so often somethings turns out as a "Collage, even if I draw, paint, or intend to do a Collage.

My work has been published on more than 100 Book-Covers,
on the cover and inside of more than 70 different magazines and newspapers.

• Illustration NOW! (No1) • Freistil (No1-3) • Lürzers Archive's "Best 200 illustrators worldwide" (first Book)
• Fashion illustration (by Anova Books) and some more.

Beside this, I also do Music with my band & music for movies, taught life drawing for a while.
Right now, I'm working on a new book about drawing. (About 200 pages will be filled with my own drawings).
