hi there, hello. thanks for stopping by. my name is tina. i'm an illustrator and designer. this is a space for me to post new work, work in progress, things i'm up to, inspirations and observations.
Inbetween assignments I allways try to paint. This is my latest work.
It is about Sigmund Freud (who became known as the founding father of psychoanalysis)
and my thoughts of an unconscious mind.
Another editorial illustration for the november issue of Elle-magazine.
This one is about an up-and-coming
neighborhood in Montreal. It is a semi-industrial zone that has quickly
been overtaken by artists, designers and architects who are renovating
old blue-collar houses and abandoned factories and car repair shops into
homes, restaurants and bars.
For one week I had a project from the 'schlesische 27' in Trebnitz (a very small town close to Berlin) together with 30 students and three other artists. I was head of the foto & illustration group and we made stories about the mysteries of Trebnitz. Did you know that there is a tree which grows foot-leaves insted of real ones? It is because the blood of a missing child sank into that tree.
Also there is a cocodile that turns into a human every full moon, trying to get someone to swap the roles. Great week, great work, great students. thank you.
i promised a 'behind the scene' picture and here it is. creative chaos on my studiodesk, while working on my newest assignment: making a floor plan for an outlet center in germany.
Philippe Debongnie started his blog project "jazz and draw" because he loves Jazz. He finds the illustration community benefits a lot from the emulation the internet and those kind of projects brought and thinks, it is just plain fun to run. My work is featured on his site because he discovered it and liked it immediately. Phillipe thought my illustrations fitt well and inspires people.
Thank you Phillipe.
