This is filet crochet – not so sure if it’s also called “fillet or filet” in English. Well, these are owls 🙂 I like owls. This is going to be quite a long lace, at least I’d like it to be. My wrist says “nope” but we’ll see who wins.


I am originally an archivist. Here you can see what comes together when working on files.

This is an old nature study of a cushion. Folds – not so good, maybe I’ll try again soon in a better way.

When I moved to Vienna, one of the things I really wanted to see was the Beethoven Frieze at the Vienna Secession. So I packed my sketchbook and a pen and sat – in front of Corona, of course – down in the basement of the Secession to study the Frieze. In the end, it was just too crowded down there and it was only enough to take a picture of this monkey. The people on site kept talking about a gorilla – but a gorilla looks quite different, doesn’t it? Well, yes. Here is the ape. If you want to know more about this frieze, you can read about it here https://www.gustav-klimt.com/Beethoven-Frieze.jsp.

Only real with bird in beard 🙂

A little while ago, me and M. had the idea to do some chess illustrations to bring some more colour and possibly joy into the topic of chess.
