Hi, I'm Anna Süßbauer and I'm an illustrator from Cologne! My work includes illustrations for picture books and magazines, my style is characterized by expressive colors and exciting textures and my love for unusual-looking animals with hats and too many legs also plays a role. I like puns and funny details in my characters.

Warm-up + Project

Let's get ready for Spring Break with Anna SubBauer's whimsical, silly, bright, and funny illustrations. They will make you laugh!

We will create animal characters based on real animals or make silly creatures from our imaginations.  Remember, color, texture, and playfulness.

Start out playing as usual and find your direction for a finished piece.

Materials:

  • Paint (watercolor or acrylic)

  • colored pencil

  • markers

  • stamp and ink

  • cut paper

I would have on hand a permanent marker or a black marking tool to add the little details and features for your creatures.

Textures may be created with sponge application using watercolcors or acrylics.

Stamp pads will also work or even layers created with markers and colored pencils.

Let's have fun!
