Lines is a 80-page art & coloring book for adults & youths, created from the hand-made drawings of artist Stefan Große Halbuer. Immerse yourself in a world of detailed illustrations, ranging from architecture to science fiction. Relax, relieve stress and enjoy bringing the lines to life using traditional or digital tools, and learn about Stefan's way of building intricate color palettes through the guides included in the book.

Hey! I'd like to introduce you to my art! I always like to think that it comes alive through details, shaped and expressed by lots of lines. I tell stories and emotions using those lines, along with intense color palettes. That's what people recognize about my style and what makes it unique.

I didn't want to "just" make an art book with my work printed nicely. I aimed for more interaction, so you readers could really experience the way I work out my compositions. And I wanted to give you guides and input to improve your coloring skills. That's why Lines is a book that shows my art, but also gives you something fun to do, and teaches you my way of coloring through tutorials.

Who is Lines for?

Lines is meant for older kids/youths and adults. The very detailed drawings require a certain precision when coloring - however, all the artworks are suitable for kids of any age, as there's no NSFW pieces in there.

The subjects of the drawings you will find inside the book are influenced by architecture, pop culture, japanese culture and science fiction. Resulting in a selection of 32 of my own favorite works. Take a closer look at my art on my Instagram! I also regularly share my process on Patreon and YouTube.

Guides and Tutorials

Lines will include guides into my way of coloring, divided into three chapters: Understanding the basic terms of coloring, building up your own palettes from scratch, and tips how to daily improve and develop your unique way of coloring.

You can choose between three different versions of the Lines book:

Hey, welcome to my Indiegogo campaign, and thanks for reading this far! My name is Stefan Große Halbuer, I'm a digital artist and illustrator from Münster, Germany. Over the last decade, I've been working freelance in the creative industry - for brands like Adidas, Adobe, Need for Speed, KIA Motors, Samsung or Star Wars, as well as for startups, NGOs or magazines.

Lines is a project I wanted to bring to life for several years. It includes the essence of my passion for making art, gives others the opportunity to take part in my visual world, and offers insights into my style and creative process. With your support, I'd love to now finally see it become reality!

This book's artworks are fully handmade, without any influence or inclusion of AI generated images. It's a project from a single creative, made with passion and love.

Thanks so much to every backer and supporter for making this project happen! It's a 100% passion project and this wouldn't be possible without you!

In the following weeks, I will constantly post updates and show my process while working on the book on Instagram , Twitter and even live on Twitch/YouTube. Follow along to get a look behind-the-scenes and updates on the project progress!

Cheers!
Stefan
