Advent

I think I just call these December I–II!
They just give me that feeling.

Prints

Two prints.
I just can´t stop making them, and now I have a whole range of color combinations. But I don´t know what to do with them. I imagine they would look nice in a big scale format, and framed.

Black November

Today this picture is published at my SHOP.
I need to do some colorful, fun and FREE work these days. The Norwegian, arctic days are short in November, and the news from the world are even darker. Need lights and colors! Be good, people! Have a nice week end!

A yellow morning walk

































































































The very best way to start a new day!
A walk in the wood, and then
a look at the colors I played with last night.

Shades of grey

































Lorca needed a bath …
And while I am making book covers he is taking a nap while drying his fur. And then I might be able to comb trough all his curls.
Friday evening is TV evening, so hopefully my long, thick wool scarf will be finished while watching. But until then there is lots of works to do!
Have a nice week end!

Carpe diem

















































































Oh, my! I am so lucky! All those refugees, and here I am, living my ordinary happy life!
Lorca and I took a morning walk, collecting some November colors for inspiration.

City

This is a piece of work I made of left over scraps. I played around with it for a while, and landed on this version.

Astound




























I am so proud to announce that I am represented by the very nice people at Astound in the US! And wow, there are so many super talented illustrators in that Agency! I will make some more children's illustrations in the nearest future, and I really look forward to it!
You can have a look at my Astound folio here.
The illustration above is from Bestefar på rømmen, and you can buy the book here.
And enjoy the summer!

Nytt Rom digital issue







































I was asked to participate in the digital issue of Nytt Rom with a picture of a nice place I have been, and to write a short text about it. My favorite place is Lousiana outside Copenhagen. I was thrilled to see that Nytt Rom gave my photos two spreads! Thank you, Hans Petter!

You can see the whole magazine here: http://issuu.com/nyttrom/docs/e-18

Bestefar på rømmen

A couple of illustrations from the children's book «Bestefar på rømmen», published by Engelsborg ressurssenter. I have just finished the job, and I hope I will have the opportunity to work on more projects and books like this very soon again. So much fun! Thanks a lot to Thomas Møller for inviting me to do the illustrations! Christine Munch at Munch Design did the typography and design. And of course: The author is Simon Stranger.

Book cover series









































I made this series earlier this winter for Gyldendal Akademisk. The books are made for teachers in primary school.

Book illustrations
















A sneak peek from a project I have been working on this winter and spring – in case you thought I had fallen into the total sleep: I have not! I have been working like a hero on collages to a children's book that soon will be finished. A great and fun job, but a bit challenging to combine with a puppy in the house, I must say! I think Lorca will be pleased when it´s finally over. I will show more of the illustrations later, and tell about the project. Happy weekend everyone!

En stor takk til Hans Petter for flott presentasjon av meg i Nytt Rom, nr. 44! Veldig smigrende med omtale i dette magasinet som jeg liker så godt! :-)

I am presented in the great Norwegian interior and design magazine Nytt Rom, no. 44! So proud! Thanks to Hans Petter!

Lorca













































I can´t resist posting a picture of my wonderful Lorca any longer! He is celebrating his four months with a playtime in the snow. He also has his own blog, in Norwegian, but with lots of pictures documenting his daily life, well, randomly at least! www.lorca-news.blogspot.no
Happy weekend everyone!
