About me!

Hello dear visitor,

My name is Celine Eimann, I am a Swiss-born artist who, after almost five years based in Australia, recently made the move back to the chocolate country.

I studied fine art and visual communications design, and now writing and illustrating children's stories.
I am the author of a children's book called 'Lyli meets the Stone-muncher' and I'm also the illustrator of 'The Sky Dreamer', both published by IP Kidz.

Here, I share a little bit of the big ups, and little downs of being an creative professional...Sometime the creative process feels a litle too much like being in a bubble, so please feel free to have a look around and comment away!

My high school diary!







Still finding forgotten stuff in the attic...
look at my last great find: My high school diary!

I let you be the judge if I was paying enough attention in class, but I was certainly perfecting my sense of coloring and composing...
You can notice words like "biology exams", "Math test", or chapters of books I had to study for that day.
I'd say the greatest find was my timetable (the big messy thing blue and red) http://shortenme.net/diary...How did I get in class???Mmmmm...Maybe that's why I did not go very often...

The dark side





hello!

I needed to share my excitment!
By moving back to Switzerland...I also was reunited with a lot of the stuff I had to leave behind when I moved half way accross the globe with a 20 kilos suitcase. In particular MY OLD SKETCHBOOKS!
I am always working on one, or two. Little pieces of my life...Good memories, great moments of inspiration...and bad ones too, but yeah well life!
I did not remember I had such a dark style...(side?)
Did I? Do I?

jet lag adapation


Bonjour,

I am getting used to:
the fact that there is no more ocean around... but a beautiful lake ,
that it's not summer, but winter surrounding us
I am getting used to the fact that I should not say "thank you", but "Merci" and that people no longer ask : "where does your accent comes from...french?"

Here I am back in Geneva!

The end of the naughty corner...




Hello Everyone,

I have a big news!
I am moving overseas...moving back to Geneva.
Me and my fiance are very, very excited. It's been quiet a task to get rid off our furniture and pack suitcases under 20 kilos.
I had to part with so many favorites drawing pads, watercolor tubes and friendly paint brushes...(and I am not telling you about all my mini treasures, bits and pieces collected along the way for future art pieces or inspirations!)
I felt strangely guilty to through away most of my material. I just could NOT do it.
I was so happy when a young woman and her 2 little girls came along to have a look at a bookshelf and ended up taking most of my craft equipment. At least I know that my favorites partners in creations will ave another life after me now;)

So this is the end of my Sydney studio...the end of what was familiarly known as " the naughty corner", the real question is...Will I be naughtier in my new studio?
Well...I hope so;)
