ENGLISH
Michael Böhm, born 1974 in Dortmund, is living and working in Hamburg/Germany. Since he was a child he always had something to scribble or to paint and it was really hard to see him without any sketching material...
Later on the “classic” arts find support in digital devices like a graphic tablet...
After leaving grammar school successfully he started to study philosophy and linguistics at the Universität Bremen. Finally the following apprenticeship as a media designer at atacama | Software GmbH in Bremen lets his creative hobby officially become his profession - and passion.
With moving house to the media capital Hamburg he is working as 2D and concept artist for browsergames at the Bigpoint GmbH since 2009.
Inspirations are found in (classic) automobiles, music, movies, comics & cartoons (Garfield, Marvel, Tintin and others) and travelling foreign countries(e. g. Scotland, Ireland, USA, China)
Beyond numerous private projects he can call diverse companies as clients - for example Loewe Verlag, cewe Color or the THW. For the Irish Speedfolk Band “Fiddler’s Green” from Erlangen/Germany he made several cover artworks and packaging designs.
The repertoire contains different topics and styles: concepts & scribbles, comics & cartoons, illustrations ( kids’ books and others), logo art, photo retouche & layout.
And back to the start - there is still an outcome of analog work like acrylic paintings on paper or canvas. :)
