Amelie Persson is a lecturer in illustration at a private university in Frankfurt, has been the artistic director of a grammar school art project for over a year and occasionally gives workshops. Her artistic work focuses on capturing moments in quick drawings, including everyday family situations. These unfiltered notes and quick sketches serve as inspiration for comics and free projects.

She is currently working on contributions to several comic anthologies and a personal project on the subject of care work, which was funded by the Ottilie Roederstein Art Scholarship of the State of Hesse.
