"Art is not what you see, but what you make others see."

– Edgar Degas

This is one of my favorite art quotes and it pretty much says everything about my work and how I can support you with my illustrations. Although my illustrations are not about me, rather about what we can make your target audience see in your product, I still want you to get to know me before we can work on your next project.

SO, HI THERE!

I’m Nadine and I work as a freelance illustrator. I specialize in fashion and beauty illustrations. 

I also have a lot of experience in interior illustrations, vector illustrations for animated videos, watercolor illustrations, line illustrations, and minimalist art.

WHAT INSPIRES ME?

I love good coffee, Pinterest, To-do lists (→ Notion), and collecting cacti and succulents in terracotta pots. But there is nothing more inspiring than having dinner with your family and friends accompanied by a fine bottle of wine and deep conversations.

And traveling. Somehow every place and city has its own magic and exploring that through photography or art is a huge part of my creative process.

Some of my favorite artists are Henri Matisse, Antoni Gaudi, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Alphonse Mucha, and Gustav Klimt. Illustrators who influenced my work are Rene Gruau, David Downton, and Jason Brooks.

And of course fashion is a never-ending source of inspiration for my work. Some of my favorites are Christian Dior (the New Look era), John Galliano (his Haute Couture shows), Oscar de la Renta, Ulyana Sergeenko, Johanna Ortiz, and many more.

In addition to all that, I love observing nature. Especially desert landscapes and their magic light. Or the sea and the salty air. Beauty is always in the detail that you may overlook.

Being a freelance illustrator has also given me the freedom and flexibility to be a mom, be there for my family and friends, and focus on volunteer work in my free time. By the way, originally I am from Munich, Germany but I have been living in Northern Mexico for more than two years now.
