In 2024, the Viennese publisher ACHSE Verlag published a book with my illustrations.
The book "Every time we..." tells about everyday life with children in different families. We learn about the simple joys that are available to everyone, and perhaps remember our experiences or come up with new ideas.
All illustrations are made in collage technique using colored paper and hand painted textures.

The book is divided into 4 parts according to the seasons.
In winter we light candles, prepare presents, go ice skating and relax in a bubble bath!
Or maybe we're looking for chocolate or having lunch with relatives.
Spring is finally coming and you can finally get your summer clothes out!
Love, cleaning the apartment and planting plants, what else is there to do in the spring?
Summer is a time to relax, enjoy the sunshine or dance in the rain!
Make a weekly menu together and eat at home.
We pick mushrooms in the fall and carry huge pumpkins in carts!
We can bake cookies or go to the market and come home
with bags full of fruits and vegetables!
There are many small collages on the cover
that convey the overall mood and idea of the book.
Sketches were made in a graphic editor to understand
the arrangement of elements and color scheme
To create the illustrations, I used colored paper in the brightest colors and simple textures that I made myself, such as plaid, polka dots, and stripes.
