Hello,
my name is Deborah Moldawski and I am an illustrator and artist based in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Currently I am studying art at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Offenbach am Main.
In my illustrations, I use dynamic, flowing lines to visualize complex ideas in reduced visual images. I enjoy incorporating my illustrations into book projects, as I find the interplay between images, text, and the book’s physical form to be an exciting aesthetic playground.
I am open for commissions, feel free to contact me.
