Eyed Raven 1 (June 2021)

acryl art, Art, creatures, Painting

The “Eyed Ravens” series emerged during a mini project I worked on at Sandra Baker-Finn’s studio. Sure, most ravens have eyes, but these two have more than just two or three—each brimming with eerie, intense gazes.

Sandy and I had been talking about monsters, probably inspired by my love for spooky themes, when we had the idea to create some of our own. I started by grabbing some large sheets of paper and charcoal and just sketched whatever came to mind. Those initial sketches still exist, though I don’t have photos of them yet—maybe I’ll share them one day.

After that warmup session, we decided I should paint my favorite sketch from the series—the Eyed Raven—in acrylics.

The second painting was even more spontaneous. I tried not to think too much and just let my instincts guide me. Learning to paint without overthinking or using references has been a long process, and I’m still working on it. Back then, I found it challenging to stay loose and avoid getting too specific with forms or outlines. By the end, I noticed that my approach got a bit more structured, but I still loved how the piece came together.

Today, the original hangs in my parents’ hallway, though prints are always available.

Impressionistic Still Life

Allgemein, Art, Painting

During my last years of school, I studied art as one of my main subjects. Alongside analog photography, architecture, and various art eras, we explored Impressionism.

Impressionism is a 19th-century art movement characterized by its emphasis on capturing light and the fleeting effects of color in the natural world. Artists aimed to convey their immediate impressions of a scene, often using loose brushwork and vibrant palettes. In contrast, Pointillism is a technique developed by Georges Seurat, where small, distinct dots of color are applied to create an image. This method focuses on the optical blending of colors, as the viewer’s eye mixes the dots from a distance.

During the weeks we delved into the use of sunlight’s colors, I created this still life using only primary and secondary colors, by using with crayons. The best way to appreciate the piece is to step back from the screen and view it from a distance. Additionally, we were not allowed to use line art, which encouraged a more fluid and expressive approach to the composition.

Kitsune Mask ( April 2021)

Art, character, masks, Sculptures

In the spring of 2021, I delved into creating even more masks, starting with this beautiful Kitsune mask.

A Kitsune is a mythical fox from Japanese folklore, often depicted as a magical being with the ability to shapeshift. Kitsune are known for their intelligence and cunning, and they are considered messengers of the rice deity Inari. Traditionally, they are portrayed as having nine tails, with each tail symbolizing increasing age, wisdom, and power. In many stories, a Kitsune can transform into a beautiful woman, often leading to tales of love, trickery, and mystique. They are often depicted in traditional masks, and I wanted to put my own spin on this enchanting figure.

Crafting the fox was a bit challenging at first. When I was around nine or ten, I made a donkey mask that had a similar structure, particularly in the long noses. However, that was years ago, and I had to relearn many techniques. I constructed the nose and ears using sturdy cardboard after forming the base with plaster.

Unfortunately, I only have one picture of the process, and the full beauty of the mask can only be appreciated in a video. You can find a short clip showcasing the entire process on my Instagram account.

So yeah… meet my beautiful Kaiyo!

Watercolor Portraits (March – June 2021)

Aquarell, Art, character, Faces

In the spring of 2021, my interest in Korean music began to wane. I found the industry increasingly perplexing, and ultimately, I just wasn’t enjoying it anymore. During this period, I was quite active on my art Instagram account, where fan art of K-Pop stars garnered a lot of love. However, creating original characters became disheartening, as it was challenging to reach an audience.

As my enthusiasm for posting faded, I noticed the rise of Reels on the platform. This shift meant I had to film my entire creative process to gain likes and engagement, which only added to my stress. I realized that I was no longer enjoying painting as I once had; I was too focused on capturing the process rather than immersing myself in my art.

The portraits you see here were created during this transitional phase, when I was still trying to maintain my output while clinging to my Instagram presence. I participated in numerous “Draw This in Your Style” challenges, where artists reinterpret an original character in their unique style. It was a fun way to connect with other artists and explore creativity, even as my relationship with art was evolving.

The first and largest portrait in this collection features my favorite character from the webtoon—and now anime—Solo Leveling: Esil Radiru, a demon princess who captivated me during my reading.

You’ll also notice that I began experimenting with different mediums in my art. I moved beyond just watercolors, blending them with acrylic paints and colored pens to create more dynamic compositions.


Ronja Rabbit (March 2021)

Art, creatures, Sculptures

Hello everyone,
I am finally back with getting this website up to my latest (and todays) art life!


At the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021, I began a unique warm-up exercise during my weekly art lessons. The inspiring artist Sandra Baker-Finn, who guided me in this journey, has an extraordinary talent for finding art in the most unexpected places—whether it’s in bottle caps, broken perfume bottles, or even the insides of toilet paper rolls!

To cultivate my intuition, we developed a technique where I would select various items from a “rubbish drawer” and place them in a box. Then, without looking or overthinking, I’d randomly pick pieces from this collection. Using these little treasures, I brought to life a series of whimsical creatures.

One standout creation from this project is Ronja the Rabbit, the largest and most detailed of my little creatures. Crafted from an old, broken lamp, a quirky plastic egg, and the innards of plaster rolls from the drugstore, Ronja quickly became a labor of love.

I truly fell for her charm! To this day, she resides in my family’s cozy corridor, a reminder of the magic that can be found in the everyday.


Oni Mask/ sketch (2021)

Art, Masks, masks, Sculptures

Besides painting, I also love to sculpt masks.

After I finished my Rabbit mask (click here to see the project), some friends of mine wanted me to make plaster masks for them too.

One of them, Duc, wanted me to do a dark blue/grayish Oni mask for him. These are the sketches. The mask actually exists- but it isn’t finished and I haven’t worked on it in a looooong while. Maybe I can take a picture of it one day.

You can see the process of me taking a plaster mask off his face underneath the sketches.

The reason why it isn’t finished is, that I am not happy with the current state of it. Right now it even has details, teeth (made out of fimo) and is painted, but it is simply too heavy and not symmetrical enough for my liking.

Cyberpunk 2077 (2020)

Aquarell, Art, character, Faces, Watercolor

For one of my moms colleagues birthday, I was supposed to paint a card last minute. Since apparently He likes video games, I decided on this one. It ain’t my favorite one but she’s still cute.
To be honest I must say, that I still haven’t played it yet. But with all the negative backla

sh and the fact, that mycomputer would simply die by trying to run it, I haven’t found the motivation to actually get it.

Also on this watercolor card, you will simply think that she has purple skin, but it’s actually the lighting (which you can’t really notice, since my execution is rather poor lol)

Another Fae Update

Art, Sculptures

Here we go again!
I just realized, that I apparently do not have nice pictures of the finished Fae sculptures. So instead of giving you the end result right now, I will feed you more progress updates (even though I finished the two cuties about three to four years ago.

The farther down you go in this Blog entry, the more progress you will notice on them!

Portait Commission

Aquarell, Art

In the beginning of 2020 I went to “Nightfleemarket” events. An inside flee market, where I painted live and tried to sell some of my artwork.

While being there, I got some of my first commissions from people that weren’t relatives or friends.
This here is one of them. The lovely elderly pair asked me to paint them, I believe it was for their anniversary or something similar.

According to them I asked for absolutely not enough payment, to which they gave me more, than I originally asked for.

It was a lovely experience and I am up to date really happy, how the commission turned out. Especially since it is not heavily stylized but rather quite realistic.
