About Me

I am a 27-year-old mixed media artist from Berlin, Germany. I enjoy all creative crafts and call the following my favorite: painting, collages and paper arts, creating boxes and books, felting, doll and figure making, journaling, knitting, mail art and writing. In my work I combine different media, materials and techniques. I collect treasures from nature, thrift stores and everyday life and love to find creative uses for them.

Nature is my source, I embrace all that it has to offer. The magic and preciousness of nature inspire me for letters, singing, pieces of art, dreams and mental journeys. I love the singing of the birds, the sun rising and setting, different lights in different seasons, the change of nature through the year, stones, feathers, branches, cones, dried flowers, moss, tracks of wild animals, bold trees, blossoms, fruits, seeds, shells, the wind in the trees, the waves of the sea, trees reflecting in the lake, magical forests, the smell of the morning ...

I also find inspiration in the energy of speech and words, poetry, gold, music, children’s souls, spirituality, mythology, fairy-tailes, Scandinavia & Northern Europe, romance, colors, northern lights, traditional handcrafts, black and white photography, walks, ensouled letters.

I appreciate:

swallows and crows

colours of Indian summer

all shades of red and purple
