Hey it's still autumn, my favorite season, which means it's time for "𝐏𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐤𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐢𝐜𝐞" 🎃

An ode to slowing down, curling up with a good book while still in pijamas, and letting the world outside drift away. This piece is a reflection of those moments that feel like pure comfort—pumpkin pie fresh from the oven, a cozy bed inviting you to close your eyes and the most adorable friend resting peacefully at your feet 🐾 I want all my days to be like this 😂

Original: 𝐺𝑜𝑢𝑎𝑐ℎ𝑒 𝑜𝑛 425𝑔𝑠𝑚 𝑆𝑎𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑐𝑜𝑙𝑜𝑟 𝑝𝑎𝑝𝑒𝑟

⚠️ This illustration is available as a fine art print (giclée) 30x40 size, and I hope it brings the same feeling of coziness and calm into your space as it did while I created it

Fresh off the press — my illustration for @bergwelten magazine is out! 🍂 You can spot my artwork inside

Always a joy to see my work living its best life in print!

The hero illustration I created for the autumn issue of @bergwelten magazine — for the article “Der Kristalljäger” / “The Crystal Hunter”💎 A heartfelt story about the old tradition of finding precious crystals in the beautiful Hohe Tauern mountains, Salzburg region. You can read the story in the latest issue on the shelves everywhere in Austria :)

Thank you, Esther Räsänen, for the impeccable art direction and collaboration! ✨

Where to meet me & my illlustrations

I’m beyond excited to announce the next spots for the rest of the year where I’ll be showcasing my illustrations 🎨 Each piece you’ll find at my stand has a story to tell—crafted with love, and attention to detail that comes alive when you see and touch them in person. Originals, fine art prints (powered by the giclée technology that lasts a lifetime -all made by us in small atelier) & more, it’s an experience that simply can’t compare to what you see online. 🌟

Yes, it’s a print 🌞
I often get asked if i didn’t by mistake send the original painting — but nope, i promise i kept it 😄

The quality just makes it hard to believe it’s not the real thing but here’s a few shots of your current favourite — "Tropical Summer "— where strength (the tiger 🐅) floats peacefully together with calm and serenity (the girl just vibing in that turquoise pool 💦)

Everything is made by us in my little atelier on 100% cotton paper with archival pigments, so it’ll last for more than 100 years. we ship worldwide (except the us right now — blame the new tariffs 🙈)

Are you ready ? ✨ My 2026 Illustrated Calendar is here! ✨

Each month opens with a full-page illustration — followed by plenty of space for your notes, thoughts, and plans.
Printed on sturdy A4 matte paper with a white metal wire for easy hanging — made to bring a touch of art and calm to your everyday. When the month is over you can cut and frame it if you want to !☺️

🌞 Available to order now — €29 while stocks last! Shipping applies on top.
Last year they sold out before mid-December, so don’t wait too long 🌙
🌞 Worldwide shipping (except unfortunately the US for now)
🌞 Pick-up possible in Vienna and at my upcoming winter markets (check the website for the location and dates)

P.s. They also make the sweetest, most affordable gift for art lovers! 🎁

Which is your favourite month ??

This summer I had the absolute pleasure and honor of creating the cover for the new EP of the @charlywoodband – a true dream project that allowed me to merge my passion for storytelling with music, translating rhythm and emotion into colors and shapes.

Their new single "You Be The Judge" was released last Friday, 26.09, and I warmly invite you to listen to it. It’s one of those tracks that stays with you, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have played a small part in this journey.

Also - that feeling when you look for it on the IG tunes and you suddenly recognize it by the colors - priceless !!! 💙

It really feels like fall now—my favorite season. 🍂 A season to step inside, to take stock, and to find your peace until it’s time to peek out again. That’s also what this illustration speaks about for me besides the original story that some of you might remember, whether from the markets or from when I shared it here before.

The truth is, I haven’t been feeling quite myself lately. I’m tired, overworked, and while I am genuinely grateful for every single project I am currently involved with, I can feel the weight of them all as I push toward the finish line. It’s not a creative burnout I sense, but an “overwork” one — an exhaustion that creeps in when there’s simply too much at once.

I don’t have the resources to fully rest right now, but I wanted to at least let some of this out here, even if it’s just scratching the surface. Because it’s too easy to get lost in the shiny, polished lives we see all around us and forget that being human also means being vulnerable. Life is made up of all kinds of moments, not only the sparkling ones.

So I’m reminding myself to breathe, to rest in little ways, and to hold space for both gratitude and fatigue.

How do you deal with it when you feel burnout coming but slowing down doesn’t seem possible?
Let's talk honestly about it all 💙
