It’s been a while since I updated my news blog. Things have been rather quiet on the project front due to the pandemic (like for many), so I don’t have a lot of new client work to show you, but I thought I would say a quick hello.
I recently started a TikTok channel, where I mostly post recordings of live drawings (digital and analog). So if you are on there and enjoy drawings, drop by and have a look.
I only have 120 followers here so far, so you can become a member of a highly exlusive club. 😀

(with YouTube Video Radio Interview with Mascot Designer Ian Marsden)
I had the distinct pleasure back in 2002 of being contacted by the organization for the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships in the renowned pristine alpine resort town of St. Moritz, Switzerland. I had been chosen to design the official mascot for the event.
This character design was my first foray into the world of mascot designs and logo character design and opened the door for many subsequent projects I was invited to participate in.
As an experienced character designer for over 20 years, I have had the great pleasure of accompanying my clients in their search for a dynamic ambassador for their brand or event and creating a design that fit like a glove.

Je tiens à remercier le magazine Autour du Pic et son rédacteur en chef, Olivier Westermann, pour avoir publié un article d’une page entière sur moi et mon travail.

This was a super fun assigment for the Johner Institute in Konstanz for a custom produced April Fool’s Day Video. I got to convert Professor Christian Johner into a new rising star Swiss Politician. Apparently I did a good job because almost nobody recognized him.
A recently completed project that I am very pleased to present is the brand new homepage for the ZürichGym in Zürich, Switzerland.
The project included logo design, wordpress design, webgraphics and webdesign, and also photoshop retouching and image treatment.
