Sandra Dieckmann is a German freelance illustrator working in East London. Her skills have been applied to a wide array of international commissions and projects, and in 2011 Sandra won an award for Upcoming Talent in Illustration in the UK.
Her work combines the emotional depth of the hand-made with the boldness of graphics. I have always admired her style of drawing, and it reminds me very much of Julia Pott's own artwork. She often focuses on animal characters with a cartoonish appearance, making the lines and patterns stand out in her pieces. She in another artist who's work I try to emulate slightly in my own.

This helped me a great deal when I was creating the backgrounds for my scenes. Seeing her process helped me to get into a flow of my own and grow more comfortable and confident with what I was creating.
