I'm Lizzy, from Germany. I'm a bookbinder - nowadays just for the fun of it. Studied literature, became a social media manager, but that's no fun any more. I'm keeping my memories here and my passion. If you'd like to know more, follow the blog link.

"Did you catch the drummer?!" - "Nope, only the cymbals."
When still shooting for my BF's tiny booking agency, I remember the night, when our friend and professional photographer cast me a questioning glance from the other side of the stage. We both didn't make it to catch Tony's swift moves.
Ode to an artist and friend: Gabriel. A friend pushes you to learn and explore - he brought me back to study (social media management). A friend is connected to you, even if you meet only once or twice a year, and who can read in your text messages that you're not OK. Somebody who rings you up then:"whatever it is, I'm here to listen." And whom you give back encouragement, and skills needed, because you see the gift and artistry the world should know.
I can't say that I know exactly what I'm doing with my camera, but sometimes I catch a moment like this: taken 2019 at the #HamburgMetalDayz a moment of focus and tension, not aware of the lens.

Same #poppy, different #watercolourpaper. #notes for my #sketchbook:
1. #hotpresswatercolourpaper: no absorption, nice mixing wet colours on paper, sharp outlines possible.
2. #coldpresswatercolourpaper: partial absorption of water - and colour, to get various colour shades it's better to work wet on dried colour. More blurring than NR. 1, not as much control as NR. 3 & 4
3. #sugarcanewatercolorpaper: nice absorption, paper stays wet but not soaked, so it's possible to get different shades mixed on paper while working wet in wet.
4. #archesgrainfin: definitely the best control of water and colour flow.
Note to myself: should practise more with NR. 4.
If not bookbinding or DIY, go out and collect some berries with the camera.
This time I caught the spirit of autum.

One of the last books I made before giving up 2014. After getting back to my passion in 2023 I thought this one is a good symbol for a new lit fire. So I started my blog with this one leading to my story.
