LUNA’S PORTFOLIO

Mission Nutrition Book Printed Art for healing purpose

I’ve written and self-published my first book in October 2019. It focuses mainly on a plant-based, wholefoods diet and healthy eating. The book became a piece of art for me. The whole book is filled with Illustrations that I have created in relation to each recipe or theme. My illustrations are produced digitally with GIMP and a drawing board. You can find out more about the book here: Lunaticrafts.com

Scottish Illustrations Digital Art for communicating the beauty of Scotland

I have created a series of Scottish illustrations that capture special or hidden places in the form of art. With my Scottish illustrations I want to embody the beauty of nature for both locals and visitors. Digital illustrations are a way for me to share my creativity and inspiration that I receive from my new home every day. All digital work is produced with a drawing board and GIMP. You can find out more about the illustrations here: Lunaticrafts.com

Other Illustrations Digital Art for communicating important messages

My illustrations all have a deeper reason - for me and for others. With this type of art I would like to point out current problems and possible changes. Often these are topics such as spiritual self-development (the wolf), loving yourself and others (the brain in flowers), climate change or a balanced diet for our planet (the avocado). You can find out more about the illustrations here: Lunaticrafts.com

Paintings & Drawings Fine Art for social causes and community

I also love to create material works of art. My favorite subjects here are portraits, landscapes and botanical drawing. I regularly meet up with friends in the botanical garden or we go on a hike together to paint plants, trees and nature. You can find out more about my artwork here: Lunaticrafts.com

Crafting & Upcycling Material Art for saving the resources of our planet

There is nothing better than doing things yourself. In my free time I am always looking for new inspirations for DIY projects. I create vases from old bottles, pour candles, paint and sew clothes. My current project is to redesign an old car into a small minivan. You can find out more about my crafts here: Lunaticrafts.com

Sustainable Clothing Printed Art for social subversion/ rethinking

I design clothes and accessories with my illustrations and profound quotes to inspire people. This ecological clothing can then be ordered in cooperation with a sustainable company. I hereby focus on a rethink in society and especially in today's consumer behavior. My illustrations are either related to my book (Mission Nutrition), spiritual, or to stimulate change in the climate. You can find out more about the sustainable clothing here: Lunaticrafts.com

Photography The Art for socializing and introverts

I have loved taking photos since I was 12 years old. I never went anywhere without my camera in my pocket and often my face was hidden behind the lens. I still love that photography can connect - either with someone else (or more) or with the area around you. My favorite objects are portrait photography, creative art, landscape photography and the night. For my photos I use a Lumix GII and for editing I use GIMP or Adobe Photoshop. You can find out more about my photography here: Lunaticrafts.com

Poetry & Creative Writing Fine Art for inspiring people

Writing is also a form of art for me. I have been writing poems and history in German and English for many years. At the moment my focus is on the story 'A World of Dust', which is based on self-study. I deal with various spiritual topics, rebirth and give small tasks for everyday life to live more consciously. All the inspiration from this book comes from my meditations, dreams and past life regressions. I also illustrate the story. You can find out more about A World of Dust here: Lunaticrafts.com

LUNA’S PORTFOLIO

Meditative Drawing An Art for healing & relaxation purpose

I am currently exploring various other art forms. Among other things, I have now started to deal with meditative drawings. Meditative Drawing is concentrating one’s attention on a simple and relaxing activity. The mind is still and calm and relaxes in the process of drawing which becomes a form of meditation. The forms of mandalas and other meditative drawings require a deep interest in how the design will come out and the ability to detach and to freely let the pencil wander to form shapes. Meditative Drawing became a great addition to my art practice so far as it calms down my mind and afterwards leaves me more inspired and productive for other projects.
