Annika L.
Artist | Traditional Art

Germany

My name is Annika Lillan Lange. I am a quite wacky, weird, but warm-hearted thing that sometimes believes to be human. I fully understand people having the feeling of being born in the wrong epoch. If I could choose a random carrier, I´d become a mix of witch and pirate.

I adore Art, but also lots of other things. I got a few stickbugs (phasmidae), heteropteryx dilatata (male) and a eurycantha calcarata, and also a giant millipede named Gimli.
I am addicted to chocolate and sushi, I love Chucks, piercings, unconventional cultural phenomena (like reenactement and nerdism) celtic/viking culture and stuff I find in nature, like snail shells, leafes, bones, wings and claws. The appartment I share with my beloved Tim looks like a very small, green museum. By the way, I like jokes, my terrarium, thrashy movies, my XBox, cycling, fantasy and mythology, the ocean, cooking for others, dots on everything, medieval festivals (giving me the great feeling of living in a time long ago...) and creativity in every way.

Being a neopagan, I try to spend much time out in nature worshipping and try help protecting its beauty. I also do so during my time at university, studying Biology.

I can´t really identify my favourite way to express art. I draw and paint landscapes, portraits, cartoons, scifi, fantasy, surreal, anthro, metamorphs, nude art and much more, although my favorite style should be folkloristic fantasy. I like to work with all traditional mediums. Besides, I sew medieval/viking clothing for me, I do seedbead-weaving and cardboard-weaving.

My favourite animal is the peregrine falcon, my faved color smoke green.
My favourite grammar-style is Yoda´s. I´m sorry.
I am 6´2´´ tall (186 cm.) I swear it´s true!
