Atelier Lys de Mer - that's me
I am Andrea Cordes – the artist behind Atelier Lys de Mer.
Art has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.
When I draw, I become completely immersed in the moment – then there is only me and the picture.
My motifs are inspired by nature, by animals, by quiet wonders and by beings that dance between reality and fantasy.
Every work of art contains a little piece of soul.
And perhaps one of them can accompany you too.

Immerse yourself in a vibrant world full of imagination, stories, and lovingly crafted characters! In this gallery, you'll find a selection of my illustrations, created specifically for children's books. Each illustration tells its own little story and invites you to dream and explore.
I create illustrations on request – individual, unique, and precisely tailored to your story. Whether playful characters, magical landscapes, or richly detailed scenes, together we'll bring your ideas to life.
The price depends on the effort and scope of the project, ensuring that each illustration is calculated fairly and transparently.
