His early professional life was marked by a diverse range of creative pursuits; he worked as a freelance commercial artist and gained recognition for his exlibris designs. His graphic works appeared in various publications, including the magazine Jugend. Beyond graphic arts, Wilm engaged in painting, producing oil paintings and ivory miniatures, often employing a technique reminiscent of Gothic painting.
