Hello, I’m Stephanie and I am a German character designer and illustrator based in the United States. I’m interested in vis development, story illustration, and character design.

Biography

I followed a different career path in college to major in Biology because I thought that I was not good enough to pursue an art career, even though art was always my passion. I have since redirected by career path in 2021 to fully go after what I really want to do. Even while I majored in Biology, I never stopped drawing and learning to improve my art. I lived in Germany in my early childhood and frequently visited as I grew older. My grandmother took me to explore forests and mountains when I was little, where she taught me about the life cycles of plants and animals. Nature and animals became my inspiration to draw at an early age, kindled with a love for Finding Nemo that shaped the focus of my art today. I enjoy incorporating what I learned about biology through my art occasionally, hoping that others gain a better understanding for the creatures that inhabit this planet with us. My appreciation for animals and nature began my art journey and carried me through the next 2 decades to keep making art. I want to collaborate with people to bring characters to life, by creating and designing those characters to tell a story. The best way to contact me is either through email or Instagram, which are provided in the Contact section.
