My Mermaid

Kristin Tessen is known as “youdesignme” and has been working for many years as a freelance illustrator in Berlin, Germany. Kristin draws and paints mainly analogue, but also a lot of digital. 

Her works radiate calm and reflect her inspirations – plants and nature, but also movies from the 20s to the 50s. That’s why botanical watercolour paintings are mainly on shown as well as portraits of women “with understatement but a otherworldly touch”.

“My Mermaid” is also inspired by the 1920s and shows floating fishes who come out of a womans blue shirt. Kristin has worked with graphite pencil and color pencils.
