Hi! My name is Nad Otterbach, I am an Illustrator and Sketchbook maker. In 2021, I graduated from the University of Applied Sciences of Augsburg, Germany with Communication Design. After deciding to devote myself entirely to Illustration I started a Master’s in Authorial Illustration at Falmouth University, UK.
I am a true drawing-addict and therefore carry a sketchbook with me wherever I go. The inspiration for my work I mainly draw from the mundane moments of everyday life around me. I like to visualise, explain and organise complicated (as well as not so complicated) topics through illustration.
So if there is something you need drawn - let me know and I will be more than happy to lend you a helping (and drawing) hand!
