I want to get into the flow of traditional painting and swing the brush over paper to create painterly effects over sketches and have fun experimenting with your look.

Beautiful Monochromes is a little deviation from digital painting and to create a row of greyscale drawings, slightly washed pencil stokes and subtle highlights to bring your character alive on paper yet trying to create something dreamy.

The drawings will be created on sturdy smooth watercolor paper whih you could as well hold in your hands or put against your wall.

I am open for 10 slots. One monochrome painting is offered for 30 Euro and can optionally be sent to you.  



Please drop me a note if you are interested. :]

Thank you <3

Also, thanks a lot for everyone who bought prints. I sent them off weeks ago but some of them seem to be on their way still, which is probably due to the crazy Christmas business the post has to deal with. At the post office they sent me around because of the mass of parcels, letters and packets I had. The queue there wasn't much clearer as everyone had at least a huge packet with them.

Nevertheless most of the prints arrived safe and sound at their owner's. Please let me know whenever you receive yours. <3

PLUS I now have a Tumbrlrlrlrll account! ---->> [link]

Have fun!

The Christmas Print Sale offer ends in three days at the 15th of December, to make sure all prints arrive before Christmas! :]

Thank you so much for your support!

...because I can't type much since my hand is wrapped up in a wrist support band since it started hurting so badly that I couldn't clutch my pen anymore.

But that is not the reason, it's just a casual information.
I'm working hard on the backgrounds for the comic Red Lantern at the moment. The deadline is near and there are a bunch of huge background paintings to be done still.

I've been boogiing non stop to get all backgrounds done that are still needed for the completion of the first Red Lantern issue.

Something that is aside costructions and indoor shots, I'm working on forets shots right now.
Keep your eyes open for possible submissions. Thanks a lot for your patience; notes will be replied asap.

Red Lantern, the comic can be read here: [link]

The title surely doesn't describe what you 'might' think. 8D

Not too long, I wish it would've been longer.

But this is how the amazing Eurofurence went past this year and I'm still trying to rebound from the everlasting Post Con Depression that hit me more than hard. And I must say that this year's Eurofurence was the best I ever experienced so far, because of all the amazing people I got to spend time with and because I often took time to simply roam the convention and not to curl up in the artist alley to miss out on the greatness.

Thanks to simply everyone who came by my table to buy prints, commissions, honey and mead (hope you liked it! I drank half a bottle and was trashed)! <3 I still got plenty of homework to do which is stacked on my table right next to me. I will make sure to make the waiting time justice.
Thank you so much for your incredible patience, for your support and for the love.

This EF was the most intense for me as I felt I never got involved into the community so much before. To all the ones, and there were so many, who came by to hug and greet me, to have a short or longer chat, the ones who got to know me in real for the very first time, I'm simply blown away by your kindness and for the huge recognition! Thank you!

The convention comprised many huge and mezmerizing events of which I feel so happy to have either been a small part of or simply for attending to witness what can be realised when there is a great team that works together with all efforts.
I simply must mention the event Bitter Lake that has simply blown me away. I rarely forget to blink so to make sure not miss out one single amazing detail.
The outcoming of the project is worth more the enjoyment you get when you watch the movie and listen to the complement soundtrack composed by FoxAmoore - you can actually see the endeavour and the striking love the entire team put into the project and all I can do here is to congrat all the members of the Bitter Lake team for creating and realising something awesome as this!

Thanks a lot for the inspiration!

Also the Kung Fur Hustle show has knocked my socks off! Not only that the martial arts input was absolutely striking but it also shows how much courtesy Eurofurence has to make such an amazing show that is fully dedicated to Charity. I also got involved a little (for the ones who saw it, it was quite fun XD) plus I had the chance to get to know Jim Martin, who has a tremendously inspiring mind and who always popped up with great ideas and visions.
The world needs more crazy minds that have the power to make it even more colourful.

Another big surprise was the Artshow Manager's Choice ribbon placed above I am Here. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the feature. <3
As incomplete as I am, I think the image was, too. I'm soon going out to find a frame that truly suits the original painting. I hope I can carry this image along with me to make a longer and bigger journey soon.

As well as roaming the convention, getting to know wonderful peeps and sometimes having way too many drinks, I got to hang around mostly with FoxAmoore and Osfer to have inspiring ideas that gave me shivers. Thanks a bunch for all the lovely ideas, visions and Amarula. ;3
It can't be any sweeter than every idea and conversation we came up with!
Plus I think I experienced the most epic thunderstorm in front of the hotel with you guys!

And a big thank you to Kebi and Ardent for their endeavour to provide us artists with coffee and breakfast during the Dealer's Den! We surely wouldn't have survived it without you sweethearts! x)

Thanks, Cheetah & Nightfox as well as all the members of staff for yet another striking Eurofurence!

I would make a huge list of icons of all my friends and people I met again/for the very first time, but my time is running out as I need to get my stuff packed for a huge Scotland trip that starts off tomorrow.


I'm actually going to gather real life refs for the comic "Myre" and already collected a bunch of proper equipment to hopefully get out the best of what I see there. My mind will again play tricks on me, seeing the actual characters cross the landscape and playing a real visionary movie in front of my eyes.
More stuff is yet to come! Stay tuned! Stay inspired!

A big thanks to all of you and much love!!! <3<3<3

I'm back now, even though I didn't mention that I was away for a week to have my trip up to Scotland. Time went past so quickly that I didn't get around to mention what amazing journey lays ahead.
I went to attend ScotiaCon, which I must say was a convention of its very own class, familarity, awesomeness, brilliance!
But to make a start before I truly find at least some words to describe my epic journey, let me tell you about the time before I went there, briefly.

I finally got the chance to meet FoxAmoore, the creator of all Myre soundtracks and partner of several music-image collaborations and also great friend of mine.
We spent a couple of days in the Highlands, having amazing walks up a large hill and even a mountain, crawling through masrhlands, sinking feet into soft mossy grounds until we pulled ourselves up amazing massive rocks to the tops to have some absolutely tremendous and amazing views far to the horizon, where even the largest mountains blurred and faded.
I greatly thank Fox for his patience to let me take hundreds of photos of the amazing view and for letting me stick my face against his car window when we drove up North to get deeper into the Highlands. He also accidently got hit my tripod several times and had to put up wrapping and unwrapping my camera and holding tons of equipment for me. X3

I've always felt very attached to Scotland and its craggy landscape and flora. The scottish Highlands are also the inspiration for my comic project "Myre", which is another reason why I was taking so many photos. Every bit of study and view can make one learn about depth, distance and especially light.
What I've noticed is that everyone I met in Scotland, even strangers who passed me, were friendly and greeting. It felt almost like a small and friendly community, a small village surrounded by tremendous, rough and smooth mountains. Words cannot describe how amazed and mesmorized I was to see the Highlands again, this time, with different eyes.

After the first part of my journey, the amazing walks and the loads of scottish fudge that made my tongue go fuzzy, Fox and I headed further up north to Inverness to ScotiaCon.
By the very first step I took to enter the location I already felt this was going to be an amazing con.
We were welcomed by so many lovely people, got loads of drinks spent and had a beautiful and funny introduction to the location and people.

The location itself is a very cozy hotel with a lot of space to roam, a lot of meeting areas and lounges, a large bar with even more comfy seating-acommondations. The disco/sig/performance space in the cellar/lower part of the hotel even has its own bar (probably to make sure that we were always at the source of happiness). ;3
The hotel staff was surprisingly courteous and welcoming. They seemed to like being involved in the whole thing and were always open for a smile.
I loved the location as one side of the hotel opened the view to the Highlands and a river and the other side directly lead into the old town of Inverness. All in all, it was a very lovely and picturesque location that I already miss a lot.

But what is a con without all the amazing people?
I must say that ScotiaCon has some tremendously amazing members of staff and chairman to show up with. All the hard work they put in to make stones rolling and to make the first Scottish convention take place was truly visible and noticable.
I also must thank smirnoff for his ability to cope with my tons of notes and mails about artwork, pinkyfox for her dedication to simply everything and also a big thank you to the rest of the staff of ScotiaCon. It was amazing to have met you and had a chance talking to you.

Most of all, I want to thank everyone who made it possible for me to attend ScotiaCon! I don't know how to thank you but my thoughts are with you!

Of course I met and hang around with a bunch of lovely chaps, too. You were all so amazing friendly and day brightening. Unfortunately I am very bad with names, otherwise I would have listed all your names down here. But maybe you show up with a comment here and I shall remember them a lot better. :3
Going among people, getting involved, making friends and having fun is always something that fascinated me about furry conventions.
Also, thank you very much again for buying my prints and my original artwork. I appreciate your support a lot and will always try to provide paintings to look at.
Also thank you FoxAmoore for spending time with me and providing me with his amazing music at the Dealers Den.

The Furvision Song Contest was amazing as well as the jam between FoxAmoore, Wolferyiff and greskil-vulfhart. Yer all so talented! It was such a blast!

For a very first run of SC, I must give this a high score simply because everything was perfect. Really, give ScotiaCon a try next year and you will see that none of my words are exaggeration. I'm still fighting PCD, especially after I passed the customs in Germany that didn't greet me, not even smiled at me. -.-

I really miss you guys, thank you ever so much for the great time, for the support...and all the drinks! XD There is a chance of 100% that you see my felty hair again next year!
If you attend next year, try the drink now officially known as "Alector" among the hotel staff. XD
It's Guinness and a shot of finest Port. ;D

Much love and hugs!

If you're interested in attending ScotiaCon next year, feel free to follow wallacesc  wallacesc for updates and information!

I wish I was more active here and be able to dedicate more time to the community and to my friends. The comments and compliments underneath the paintings I submit are always such a delightful glimpse that I won't be forgotten, even though I barely write...

I shouldn't make a resumée of the year in the middle of it, but it has already been so busy and it will stay that way until  I completed and reached everything I wanted.
Since exactly January 1st, I had a full list of commissioned work, project work (I'm the background painter for the comic project called "Red Lantern" --> [link] ) and a fight with my corrupt health insurance.

Everything is still going on but things have changed, especially because I received an infinite amount of help and support of my ever so worthy friends and people of the community, my watchers. The insurance company is continuously trying to empty my pockets but I shut down and bombarde them with claims and appeals.

We have reached a lot so that a massive part of the huge amount which they claim got reduced to almost the half and the monthly fee got reduced to a bearable minimum.
I'm also now officially an "artist" with my admission to the social society for artists in Germany. It took them half a year to check my applications and I struggled exactly half a year and got stripped naked by the money sucking health insurance.

This case is now in its final spurt and I hope it will finally get solved as I would so love to breathe in again and enjoy life as it is, without to worry what could be laying in the letter box the next day.

I would also finally push the stones downhill so they can start rolling.
I want to work on my project "Myre" so badly as the massive scale of it wants to burst my head and flow on paper.  It will though happen one day, maybe soon. I won't announce the beginning but when I'm into it. ;]

But something else. I feel totally great! I'm not whining as much as it seems, I just barely upate everything that's going on. x)

For the ones who like and appreciate the concepts and hints to the story of "Myre" so far, there is now a second music piece of the official soundtrack, done by Fox Amoore which you can listen to here: [link]

I'm going to announce some great event in the following days. I just need to get something ready for that.

Thanks a bunch for your support! Loads of kisses. <3

I'm back and alive from MMC. It was yet again a beautiful con with loads of awesome people! I already can't wait for next year. ;D

It's really early in the morning and I've been up for at least an hour to pack my stuff. and I are heading to MMC now.
I will be back on Sunday!

I hope to see you there. ^^

First of all, thank you all for the massive support, comments and favourites on one of my most recent paintings I Am Here. This was truly the first proper traditional painting I have done since July last year. I either worked on small sketches or digital work and my brushes got dusty. It felt somehow a little unusual when I held one of my long acrylic brushes in my hand again.

"I Am Here" is definitely one of the images I feel very attached to and therefore I call it my personal piece. It took me a while to realise what I created so I put the painting into a dark corner where I couldn't see it. You also noticed that I barely replied to all of your wonderful comments underneath the painting. I am very thankful for every single one.

Today I got floored by an amazing gift that seemed to have opened myself towards the painting even more and made me realise how and why I created it. My releationship to the painting is a result of something that lies deep within me, even if it doesn't depict myself or something that resembles me.

The gift is from Fox Amoore, who put so much endeavour and energy into creating this wonderful music piece to "I Am here" with the same title. Please take a listen here: [link]

This is incredibly uplifting!

My acknowledgments mostly don't contain big words and I often take a long time to come up with something good. But there are still a couple of acknowledgments to come for some special people who really untangled me out of my problems. <3


Thank You!

Today, I'm putting all worries aside and try to be selfish. The sun is shining outside and the first flowers stretch their necks towards the bright light.
I love Spring and I'm happy it's here at the day when I was born 25 years ago. ^^

Thanks so much for all the support on my last journals. I will definitely keep you updated with news.
There are solutions, my health insurance was lying towards the court and therefore I won't give up the fight.

Well my aunt and I went to court to apply for provisional legal protection against the claim of my health insurance.
The pile of papers was thicker than the side of hy hand and our formulation and true facts got typed into a quite long application which was given to the judge at the same day.

My aunt and I are sure we are right because of the tons of facts she found against them. It took about three months to finalize proper grounds of objection, calculations, applications for deferment of payments etc. etc.
The several letters and miscalculations by my health insurance proofed that they are wrong and we had a nice time waiting for some kind of reply, in excitement and a tiny bit of anticipation.

I just received a phone call by one of my housemates (I'm not at home right now) who told me about the long awaited letter by court.

The application won't be successful.

My day is over, my health insurance will enrich themselves with the money I can't pay...

I can't draw now...

I spent half of my holiday in bed because one of my friends came back from work carrying a really nasty virus with him.

The health insurance issues have gotten worse as they are trying to force me to pay the full amount of "owed" money immediately by threatening me with a compulsory enforcement and delay agios of several percentages of the full amount. This means it's now 500€ on top of the 4k. I could feel the flu striking back with its full power when I opened the letter.
So the stubborness of their clerks, their ignorance and illegal actions put two months hard work into sand and even risk that I lose everything I built up. My aunt immediately reserved a car. She will pick me up in Berlin and we both head up north to go to court next week.

The time has come that we need to do what we always tried to explain them what we want to avoid. But it seems that they rarely or even never had a case like me at their place.

Please wish me luck. I can't stand that stress anymore.
It's crazy and nonsense what they do...

Myre Video can been here! --> [link]

The soundtrack can be found here: ---> [link]

I didn't notice myself how much time I spend in front of this thing and making the visions and dreams of other come true.
And whilst doing that, I didn't notice the reactions of my body and mind, that I've become some sort of workaholic and that when I try to relax, I have to think of work, drawings, creations, everything.

I have nothing against that basically but there are two factors that push me back too far from going forwards and hold me from achieving what I take in hand as too much strength and time flows into them. And I need to get things solved or I won't be able to rest.
So I'm being forced to take a week off, to try to relax and to get back some calmness in my life.

See you in a week.
I will work on the receivable commissions then.

Thank you all for your patience.
