It takes a lot of work, organization, creativity, passion and dedication to let the dream of TheStoneBible become a reality. Here you can get an overview about the people behind the project.
Marie Glück / Katrin Schmidt
For the illustration work in the Bible such as ornamentations, or the “Thank You” postcards I get great help from Marie Glück. Her last name “Glück” means happiness in German and since her 14th birthday she has been using this beautiful artist name. Her real life name is Katrin Schmidt, born in Rostock, Germany. With 13 years she started drawing and discovered a world of infinity. The colors of feelings have since been the artistic theme of her life.
As a florist she used the beauty of flowers, the colors and essence to create marvellous gifts of happiness for over 13 years. Time pressure and processing childhood experiences took her on a path of nature, yoga and illustration. As the start of a new beginning she has written two books already, organized exhibitions and found photography as a great way to express herself.
As children we learn a lot through images, and Marie wants to communicate this with a lot of sensitivity and in a very pleasant way.
Torsten Landmann
My motto is – I am specialized in versatility & to be the change that you want to see in the world. I was born on the beautiful Island of Rügen. After having a “moved” childhood, I finally came back to Rügen and started an unsatisfying apprenticeship in retail sales. I decided go to university and study business administration and information technology. I worked as a network administrator for over 6 years and started a business as self-employed computer reseller and consultant. A few years later I moved to Hamburg, Germany and pushed my knowledge in project management, coaching and as a team leader for a company which sells organic products.
I love playing music and singing together with others. I try out a lot of instruments and always “look” for places with an amazing sound. I am interested in many things e.g. archaeology, architecture, sustainability, technology, communication, photography etc.
After I had returned from a long term visit in a Christian community in India, I changed a lot. I don’t take anything for granted anymore and have learned to be thankful about what I’ve been given. I have developed a “hands on” – mentality, trust my own experiences and work on making the best out of any situation I encounter. Enriching the life of people who share their time with me as colleagues, guests, coachees or family, is the greatest gift I can give.
