Hey there! This is Kathrin. (she/her/hers)
Kathrin has a B.A. in Communication Design and a M.A. in Design from the University of Applied Sciences Trier. Her focus has always been on telling stories through images - be it illustration, 2D animation or comics.
Her animation work credentials include working as an illustrator on "Task Force Querlitz" (ZDF) and as an Art Director for "Klimagefühle" (KiKA & hr). Since 2023 and currently ongoing, she's been working with the SCRIPT in Luxemburg on the educational farming puzzle series "Wizzle".
If you're looking for a motivated illustrator whose visual range includes expressive characters, lively nature scenes, cartoons and comics, you've found her. Kidlit, picture books, educational materials, caricatures, book covers and posters are her specialities.
Nowadays you'll find Kathrin in west-central Germany near Frankfurt am Main, but she's from a place where young forests grow on man-made mountains near winding silver rivers. For the less poetically inclined: Saarland.
Oh, you're wondering about the animated logo? You've found a fun fact! That's in reference to her last name. "Strauß" means both "ostrich" and "bouquet" in German.
