Happy #KidLitArtPostcard Day! Meet Pip and Peanut — a little duo I created for the MATS Character Play course. I’m Lena, an author-illustrator who enjoys bringing characters to life through traditionally painted textures and vintage papers as a digital collage in Procreate.

Today's the day: my new Substack series “INK & PENCIL Notebook” begins! A hippie beach, a missing book, and why I started writing for children. Read it here: open.substack.com/pub/inkandpe...

Ready for some #ourplanetweek goodness? This is my interpretation of “Touch the Ground“ ✨ There is so much wonder all around! #kidlitart #kidlit

Vintage neon signs - I absolutely love them. So imagine my happiness when visiting the „Buchstabenmuseum“ in Berlin. A place where these beautiful old fonts find a new home, after the shops, hotels or restaurants have forever closed their doors. #neonsigns #lettering

I love coming up with stories and illustrating for children, starting out in 2018 with writing my first book: „Matti und Max“ (published under my pen name: Sandra Lehmann) - illustrated by my talented friend, Manja Adamson. These days, I enjoy combining my imagination with illustrations.

Hello, I'm Lena, author and illustrator with a head full of ideas for #picturebooks. Chocolate and striped T-Shirts make me almost as happy as trying out new art materials or reading a favorite book. I‘m looking forward to finding a wonderful community of creatives here on @bsky.app
