My name is Leni Lupin, and I am an illustrator who has recently relocated from Berlin to Birmingham, UK. This move marks an exciting step in my creative journey, as I aim to broaden my horizons and fulfill my lifelong dream of establishing myself in the thriving UK art scene. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Communication Design from the Technische Hochschule Augsburg, where I focused on illustration. After moving to Berlin in 2019, I started my freelance career by launching an Etsy shop, designing and selling greeting cards, fabric patterns, and stickers. As my fabric designs grew in popularity, I transitioned to working more extensively on surface patterns, collaborating with clients such as Lillestoff, Poshpinks, Alles für Selbermacher, and Mountain Merch. By 2020, I had firmly established myself as a freelance fabric designer, known for my hand-drawn, intricate illustrations. In 2023, I expanded my portfolio by working with Wild as Heck, contributing illustrations to their Australian wool hat collection. Currently, I am working on a large commission for Wild as Heck and designing emotion cards for a mediator. I specialise in fabric and surface design, and I love bringing ideas to life in tangible products. My website is _Website not available. Sign in: https://www.twine.net/signup_
