I offer illustration as a standalone service, or as part of a web design project or Artist Residency.

Welcome to my studio

Illustration Service

I illustrate from attention — to a subject, a place, a body, an idea. The work is observational and interpretive rather than decorative.

Available for editorial, food and drink, botanical, body and movement, and book illustration. Open to other briefs.

Fees are project-based and depend on usage and complexity. Get in touch to discuss your brief.

Drawings made after each Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement lesson — attempts to capture the somatic experience in visual form. Each piece begins with a standout moment or sensation from the lesson, held in body memory and then put on paper. The title arrives last: "Butterfly ribs," "Balloon bones," "Send me to my Psoas." An ongoing collaboration with Feldenkrais teacher Ana Stojаdinović, in exchange for classes.

What fascinates me about Anja’s illustrations is the breadth of styles and techniques she draws from —ranging from figurative and anatomical studies to abstract, conceptual explorations. Rather than adhering to a fixed visual language, she approaches each project with fresh curiosity, allowing the subject, context, and lived experience to shape the outcome. Influences from anatomy, graphic design, word art, classical painting, watercolour, pastel, and drawing all find their way into the work, creating a rich and continually evolving visual vocabulary.

This open-ended approach feels deeply aligned with the Feldenkrais method itself. Just as learning in Feldenkrais emerges through exploration rather than predetermined results, Anja’s drawings seem to arise from attentive observation, curiosity, and responsiveness to what is present in the moment. Perhaps her background in architecture also contributes to this mindset: every project begins with its own unique conditions and possibilities, while the spirit of inquiry remains constant. The result is work that feels both thoughtful and alive.

Digital Flowers

A series of digital botanical illustrations made as a weekly contribution to a church newsletter during the Covid lockdowns. Pieces either responded to the season, to stylised flowers in a vase or as an almost abstract composition. A self-initiated brief, sustained over the period of the lockdowns.
