“Ich bin so dumm, du bist so dumm…”

Phew… looking on my blog makes me sad, because I created so many, uninteresting stuff for university (essays) and job (flyer, poster, etc.) in the last time, that I didn’t wanted to bother you with those silly things.

But now!

I did some scribbles for the illustration course “Ich bin so dumm, du bist so dumm, wir wollen sterben gehen, kumm!” by famous german illustrator Sophie Schmid. The task was to illustrate a poem of Morgenstern or Ringelnatz (funny german poets)

I thougt it would be the best idea to illustrate the poem chosen for the title of the course:

Ein finstrer Esel sprach einmal zu seinem ehlichen Gemahl:
“Ich bin so dumm, du bist so dumm, wir wollen sterben gehen, kumm!”
Doch wie es kommt so öfter eben: Die beiden blieben fröhlich leben.

Christian Morgenstern

This was my first scribble, to uphold the idea…

…and these scribbles were an exercise for the expression of the characters, but I think I have to work on it:

I hope new pictures will follow soon, but first I have to work on a new Coffee&Cookies concept.

However, I am optimistic!
