<description>The reference photo was taken during our holidays in august 2008 in Tuscany. One week later I was looking through my photos and after I have seen the reference I could not resist on drawing it. 
 
If you like, you can also take a look at the process of drawing on my website.</description>

<description>She is a German/ Italian vocalist from Stuttgart. She&#039;s got a strong voice, a nice smile and charisma. So I started drawing   
 
I finished the photography with Photoshop: I removed the reflections and cut off the edges.

<description>This one I created for the Logitech MX1000 Design Award. 
 
I do not have much to say. It shows the Fujiyama during sunrise. People voted my design position 57 out of more than 3,500 transmittals. And that pleased me very much! (Of course, I did not create the mouse, only the design on it.)...</description>

<description>Her name is Wiebke. 
 
I drawed her in October 2005 from a picture. It took me two trials and many wonderful hours. Hairs are still a problem for me, so I decided not to draw hers. I did not want to screw the drawing up a second time.</description>

<title>Artwork: First Portrait Ever</title>

<category>Drawing / Figure</category>
<description>As I said, this is my first (self-) portrait ever (ever ... could it be something else?). Sat in front of a mirror and began drawing. I drawed with one pencil, one rubber and - of course - one piece of paper.  </description>
