Zarah Fee Illustrations

Freelance artist / Illustrator and graphic designer based in Hamburg, Germany. Works in progress, Commissions, doodles / sketches, finished works and fanart are what i like to share here. A little about me, yours truely, I spend a lot of time having feelings about strangers, fictional characters and about my surroundings. I amuse myself by buying books, all types, with words, with pictures, for kids, for adults, anything that floats my boat.  Stalking artists on tumblr, Learning every line of my favourite musicals, reading shameful hours of fanfiction, flirting with dogs and being happy about other people’s love lives also have a way of taking up way too much of my time. My mom is a badass and my closet friends are weridly awesome, thanks to them I have good manners, a gleeful bitchface, a awkward sense of humour and a huge travel fever. I grew up in Asia, lived in Thailand for a good 15 years and i still miss it so much that it kills me.-------> Write me a message anytime, the Ask box is always open! I am always open for chats and Commissions!

The Fox

My exam works were to center around Joel Ben Izzys book, ’ The Beggar King and the Secret of Happiness: A True Story ’,  the book tells his journey of losing and the return of his voice as a storyteller. Within his story he tells short stories with morals and links them to happenings in his own life.

This Lineare drawing is based on 1 of those stories. About a Fox that finds a hidden garden, once inside he stuffs himself with all the goodies there, sadly he finds out it isn’t safe to stay there, anymore only now he can’t get out the same way he got in. There is of course a cute little moral to this story aswell, check it out it really it worth the read =)

Rami in New York City

Illustration to my children’s book ‘The wishes and i’ This is one of the first illustrations of the book and the first illustration i ever worked on for this book. It is one of my treasures, even if it isn’t that special, but i really like the openness of the scene and how our star of the book is the small guy right there in the middle =)

Girl in Bubbles

A commission piece i did 2 years ago.

it was very experimental because i didn’t know exactly how the bubbles would turn out with acrylic paint, but i am very happy with the result, also with contrast of the yellow paper and orange paint.
