Overview
Hi, I'm Henri, a freelance artist from Germany and I am here to visualise your vision. Combining my painting skills with your imagination I create intriguing and appealing covers and illustrations. I come from a background in project management, freelance work for game development and editorial nature illustrations tieing together reliability, ingenuity and a realistic painting approach.
My clients value my ability to bring their visions to a point. For covers, I achieve this by focusing on the atmosphere of the story and adding just enough information to spark the imagination and curiosity of the viewer. Therefore, I like to learn the most I can about the projects I illustrate so the more pedantic a brief the better.
For nature illustrations or childrens' books I like to adapt a clear but dreamy and pastel watercolour style. My favourite subjects to paint are figurative works, portraits and animals but I'm open to any requests.
You'll find me here, with a cat on my lap awaiting the next drawing adventures.

I offer concept and illustration services to publishers, game delevopers and authors. I specialize in two areas: fantasy art and nature illustration. I have worked with game developers, rpg game publishers, youtubers and local startups. In addition to cover illustrations I paint digital fantasy portraits for private clients and influencers, offer stock illustrations for rpg game development and take commissions for character design.
My nature illustration is usually more dainty and a mixture of traditional freehand linework and digital colourisation. For my digital painting I usually choose either a strong chalky paint or watercolour style, sometimes a combination of both.

I enjoy making conceptual illustrations and character design. My style has the warmth of traditional media with some digital touches.
