Camping out in Japan

Sunday, May 9th, 2010

My first illustration in Japan has just been published – the cover of the annual Auto Camp Guide of Japan. It was a great opportunity for me to work on a new pattern of tents and trees that can be seen in the background. I quite enjoy the commercial quality of the Japanese characters on the cover. Below is one of the crazier sketches that I proposed.

Raccoons seen in Frankfurt

Sunday, May 9th, 2010

Ulrike Kittel fell in love with my raccoons and asked me to illustrate her banner that was hung up during the Rund um den Finanzplatz Eschborn-Frankfurt bicycle race in Frankfurt, Germany. Ulrike is an artist that makes quilted baby blankets and her work can be seen on her website.
