About me

I am an illustrator from Bergen, Norway. I started my career as an editorial illustrator in Bergens Tidende while I was still in school in 2006; and the wheels have been turning since then with books, stage designs, some TV, more books, and running and designing products for my studio shop. I moved my studio to Bryggen in Bergen in 2009, and then moved again into my current location in Midthuset in 2020. All my illustrations are made by hand in watercolour and ink.
