About Me

Are you interested in innovative and unique artwork/coverdesign, that interprets and represents your particular kind of music? I..m an archaeologist and musicethnologist from Germany and I have a half-time job at the local town archaeology department. There I participate in organisation, excavations, documentation, drawing, interpretation and research. My work with ancient remains inspires my style of art, which can be of great advantage for me designing artwork for metal bands. Besides I also take care of the merchandising and artwork of local bands. The normal procedure concerning this as follows: A band asks me to listen to their music and after having got an impression of their style, I outline to the band members my suggestions regarding matching artwork and design. Then, if my clients are interested and I can identify with their music as well as their political background (no extremists/ no religious propaganda), we make a project and interact. Personally I..m interested in metal music, doing the vocals, playing the guitar, the piano and of course my favourite instrument: My Korg Triton Extreme with 88 keys and hammer mechanism. Other interests of mine are drawing, painting, working with wood, restoring antique artifacts and creating layouts and designs for tattoos. I..m searching for contacts with other creative people and I would be glad about every kind of critical comments and conversations. Every request/mail will of course be answered, but this may take some time, because I personally answer all the mails that arrive. Last but not least, a small comment on the pictures shown: These are just a few examples of my work that give an impression of my style. These however are already attributed to various clients of mine, but if you..re interested we can work together and develope your own personal artwork/merchandise. [email protected]
