About

Eva Widermann was born in Munich, Germany, and started her professional career as a graphic designer in various agencies in Munich, Stuttgart and Karlsruhe. She also lived in Cork, Ireland, from 2008 to 2016 and speaks fluent English – with a slight Cork accent. After some years of working in the advertising industry, she decided to follow her heart and pursue her long time dream of becoming a freelance illustrator and concept artist in both traditional and digital media. Since then, her work has been published in a wide variety of books, magazines and games (Blizzard Entertainment, Disney Interactive, Lucas Film, Wizards of the Coast, Paizo Publishing and many more).

Eva has been a visiting lecturer at CIT and LIT in Ireland, teaching character development and concept art for games and animation and giving the students insights into the working life of a freelance illustrator. She also held several workshops and courses, for example at the Northern Lights Workshop in Stockholm, Sweden; Nunavut College in Iqaluit, Canada; Dublin Illustration Workshop at Digit Games, Galway Film Fleadh and University College Cork in Ireland.
