With a grain of salt

Inspired by a book I read as a child (couldn't remember the name but I found it out in the meantime. It's called 'The BFG' or with its German Sophiechen und der Riese written by the Brittish author Roald Dahl. Should find the book and read it again. I remember really liking it.

"That gigantic salt really hurts..."

Civil Servant

Sometimes we all have a certain cliché in our heads when we think of some things. Here's one of a civil servant I just had to draw. A little different approach here. Try to go a little "Street Style" without getting to much into it. Originally painted with fineliner, later vectorized in Illustrator. Added the paper texture afterwards.

After a hard 3 hour day at work...

Cyborg man 1

Originally this was painted on A3, unfortunately my scanner is only A4, so it is more of a close-up than the original. Next time I should just take a photo.

I originally started with the front, but it turned out too look more like a back, so I went for that.  Funny how red almost always looks like blood...

And he was waiting...

I'M BACK: Orpheus in the Underworld

So after way too long I'm finally back with new pictures. Hopefully I can keep the blog updated more frequently again.

Here's a short impression from the Rheingau Musik Festival, Michael Quast playing "Orpheus in der Unterwelt" all alone (only supported by his piano player). Very funny and entertaining, but a lot of spitting. If you have the chance to see it, go!

Ready, steady...

A crocodile, an evil penguin and an otter: 3 great swimmers, all very different. Who would win a race in water?

High Moon

Showdown on a small Planet. Who can fire the deadly shot? Too. Much. Tension.

Veggies of Wrath

Inspired by John Steinbeck's Nobel Price winning book "Grape's of Wrath" and a comment of my art teacher gave me the idea for this pic. My fave is the mad potatoe. No further comment needed.
