Illustrations

See and understand

Our brain understands images faster than text – and remembers them better. Informative illustrations make it possible to gain insights, compare data quickly and grasp complex topics. They tell the story behind the data.

Your thoughts, my pictures

Illustrations for science

In science, the content is complex and sometimes difficult to understand without prior knowledge. That's why I use illustrations in science journalism.

Illustrations for books

Whether crab monsters, computer viruses or cosmetics enthusiasts: I would be happy to draw the pictures for your book project - whether non-fiction or fantasy.

Drawings for magazines

Some topics are extremely abstract. Illustrations can help to make the topic tangible, understandable and entertaining.

Illustrations for your brand

Do you need a logo for your start-up, a llama drawing for merchandising your alpaca farm or labels for your coffee roastery? Let's go!

The greenhouse effect as a scientific comic strip

As a fellow in the M.I.P. lab at Freie Universität Berlin, I am researching, conceptualising, writing and drawing a comic. What does a greenhouse do to tomatoes and how do you calculate the greenhouse effect? I explain this in a comic for the FU Berlin.

Illustrations for books

Empire of Dust

‘Empire of Dust’ by Alex Kingsley is a fantasy story in which crab animals play the main roles. I was allowed to draw the illustrations for the book and the accompanying table-top game. The book and game were published in the USA in 2024.

Lina and the computer virus

What are computer viruses? And how do you explain it to a child? ‘Lina and the computer viruses’ explains to children aged six to nine what computer viruses are and what we can do about them. The book was commissioned by the cyber security company G Data.
