Yes, the time has (almost) come! We're already in the final stages of the publishing process, as the book will be released on 4 March 2024 and is already available for pre-order on the publisher's website (Haupt) and on Amazon.
In the book you will find an introduction to various printing techniques and how they can be adapted to use Tetra Pak® instead of more traditional materials - with impressive results. Tetra Pak® is the material used for milk cartons, juice and soup containers), so you will be working with recycled and non-toxic materials.
The technique is suitable for both experienced printmakers and all creative people who like to experiment - hobbyists, illustrators, designers - and expand their horizons.
Making this book has been a labour of love and I'm so looking forward to holding it in my hands and sharing it with everyone who has walked this path with me, supporting me every step of the way with words of encouragement, valuable contributions and feedback.
Book presentation
On the occasion of Printmaking Day, I'll be hosting a small get-together at Papelier to launch the book and demonstrate some of the techniques in it. Perhaps this will inspire you to try the technique and open new creative doors for you!

Printmaking Day - Day of the Printing Arts
On 15 March 2018, traditional printing techniques were added to the list of intangible cultural heritage by the German UNESCO Commission, and since then the Day of Printing has been held every year on 15 March.
To mark the occasion, a number of events will be held in Germany and neighbouring countries to demonstrate the liveliness of this cultural heritage. You can find more information about this event on their website.
Looking forward to welcoming you soon!
