Myself

So … you finally found this somewhat secluded place shifting through those vast reaches called “the Internet”. Either by mere coincidence or because you would like to collect some background information about the guy who asked you to work with him for a session or two

Location and such …

I am living in a small place that is called Bonn and amidst the former foreign embassies that once graced the green hills of the city.

The more knowledgeable might remember that Bonn was the somewhat sleepy capital of Germany before our government felt it was past time to display some grandeur again and moved it back to Berlin.

Motivation

Bringing scenes to life by means of illustration or painting is a fantastic challenge, intriguing and extraordinarily rewarding. Once you achieved certain skills a world
of incomprehensible wonder reveals itself to you. A world where imagination is your only constraint.

I like to create things and put a small part of myself into the process. Concept illustration is my favorite (examples) but I found that photography can be interesting to some extent. I do all of this out of personal interest only and without the slightest commercial interest.

Illustration genres I work on

I mostly did conceptual art and illustrations for our pen and paper RPG which is based on the eastern regions of Tolkin’s works that are usually not part of the books. Sometimes I played with other genres particularly archaeological depictions for friends working in this profession.

Genres I work on photography wise

I have quite a number of works around portraits, sensual nudes and sensual Shibari, latex in fashion, architecture and such. All just for fun and out of curiosity. Works containing nudity or Shibari for review are only available if you ask me to work with you and in a password protected area.

Working with me

If you feel interested to work with me, that would probably be during a photographic project. I do solely work on a contract base and full respectability is a must.

You will receive a complete project description, including a mood board and we will conclude all of the relevant options in advance so that everyone knows what they get.
