General Info
⊹ Please read this specific section carefully before placing your order ⊹
This campaign lasts from the 1st to the 31st January 2026 and it’s funds will be used to finance the first edition of my debut artbook “Tiny Spirits”.
Prototypes of “Tiny Spirits” already exist and this is a pre-order campaign. Meaning, that it might take over a month between placing your order & paying and then receiving the artbook. A schedule of the campaign is found at the bottom of this page.
As this campaign is running on the same site as my regular shop is, standard shipping fees will be applied at checkout.
There is an option to save 6€ in shipping fees (German orders) if you decide to pick-up your book at Leipzig Book Fair (MCC).
> I sadly didn’t get my own booth there, but my twin sister Raide did! You’ll be able to pick-up the book her booth.
Please avoid mixing items from this campaign with other listings from my regular shop. There are three listings belonging to this campaign which are linked on this page (= physical book, e-book & addons). The packaging for my artbook is restricted to 2kg in total and musn’t exceed specific measurements. Once those limits is exceeded, shipping becomes significantly more expensive. Therefore, only 1 book per order is possible. Thanks for understanding :)
About tHe Artist
Hi, I’m Catarina, better known by my artist name “Leffie” on social media. I am an artist from Leipzig with German and Portuguese roots. You’ll often see me at conventions with my twin sister RaidesArt, who also wrote the foreword for this book! (Fun fact: We also have a big sister :) )
This project has been over a year in the making, with the first ideas popping into my mind at the end of 2024 and a prototype I printed for Leipzig Book Fair 2025. Now, after going over it again and again, my book is ready for the final print!
“Tiny Spirits” invites you to the realm of my imagination. I create whimsical illustrations which are featured in here, but I very much also enjoy telling stories through animations and comics! The possibilities of drawing anything you can image are so endless that I find it hard to stick to just one theme or style. I hope you’ll enjoy reading the book as much as I had creating it ♥
Inside tHe Book
The book is divided into 5 Chapters:
Exclusive Campaign Reward
If we reach 100 backers by the end of the campaign (16h of February 2026), every order of the physical book copy will receive a free mystery foil print! The print size and contents will be decided at a later time, though I am tending towards something related to my original story “Light Warden”.

I need your help!
Instead of reverting to crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter, I decided to host this campaign on my own website.
Artbooks that are funded through external hosts like Kickstarter usually gain more traction through search-functions and algorithms.
With that being said, I would highly appreciate if you spread the link of this campaign around! ♥
I decided to not go forth with an external crowdfunding host for these three reasons:
⊹ This book will be produced no matter what ⊹
There is no funding-goal required
⊹ More payment methods available ⊹
PayPal and Debitcard are possible (no credit card required)
⊹ No additonal host-fees ⊹
A larger percentage of the profit goes directly towards the campaign
