Quality purveyor of sea monsters, fairytales and ghosts.

About me

Iam Gunvor, an illustrator and gallery owner at Bryggen in Bergen. I make everything by hand in watercolour and ink, and have done so since I started out as an editorial illustrator for Bergens Tidende in 2006. Since then I’ve illustrated books, board games and TV, designed for the stage, drawn live at jazz festivals in Norway and Switzerland, and worked with clients like NRK, Festspillene i Bergen, KODE and a respectable pile of books and publications.

My studio and shop at Bryggen

My studio and gallery is situated at Jacobsfjorden 6-7A, on the historic Bryggen wharf in Bergen, a UNESCO World Heritage Site dating back to the 14th century. I moved here in 2009. My studio is where I paint and draw, and next door is my gallery shop. In there you can browse and buy prints, cards, tote bags, bookmarks, and original artwork. Everything is designed by me and produced locally.
