"When I'm not drawing, I prefer to have my hands in the ground and my head between branches and flowers."
STUDIO KARAMELO is a Cologne-based design studio for floral illustration and high-quality, environmentally friendly stationery products, run by designer and illustrator Kathrin Bender. With a degree in visual communication and several years of experience in the art scene, Kathrin initially began with the production of stamps. Gradually, her portfolio grew to include new motifs and art prints of botanical drawings. When she's not at the drawing table, Kathrin loves to spend time in the garden. As a plant lover and passionate gardener, she finds plenty of inspiration for her motifs there, which she then puts down on paper with ink, pencil and a lot of passion.
