Client: Heddal Stavechurch

Project: Post cards A5

Brief: The client wanted to add more post cards to their souvernir shop, and asked for illustrations with a modern expression.

2 illustrations were developed - one of the church itself and one based on the legend of the troll that was said to have built the church.

Heddal Stave Church is Norways biggest stave church – a wooden cathedral from the 13th century, still in use as the parish church.

Client: Artell Kommunikasjon AS

Project: Identity illustration

Brief: By using illustration as a part of their own identity, Artell wanted to state that they are a communication agency, primarily working with health related clients, rather than a health company themselves.

My consept for the illustration was to focus on the “hands” and “heads” - namely the parts that the agency use when they develop solutions for their clients. “Hand” and “head” characters were developed and a mix of elements related to communication and health were added to create a dynamic collage.

The illustration can be used whole or in parts on all digital platforms as well as decorative prints or wallpaper for Artells office space. Plenty of possibilities!

Client: Vårt Land, newspaper

Project: Cover illustration Christmas issue

Winner of the European Newspaper Award- “Award of exellence” for cover in Nationwide Newspaper!

I wanted to approach the nativity scene slightly differently by focusing on two things: the arrival of a new family member (both an everyday occurrence and a miracle) and the scripture itself. incorporating the text gives a nice contrast to the more feminine parts of the illustration.

Project: Cover illustration Advent issue

Contrary to the image most people have of Lucia already, the historical Lucia has quite the dark background: Lucia herself being tortured and killed for her faith. I wanted to convey this dramatic event in a subtile way while still maintaining the beauty and light that we think of when hearing her name.

Brief: “Psychologist missing” - front cover and spread

The feature article addresses the difficult task of recruiting psychologists to work in remote areas, especially in the north coast of Norway. The client pictured an illustration where the psychologist is represented by his or hers absence. So here I suddenly had the great opportunity to draw a seagull in sunset ;) More specifically set in Lofoten, which is known for it´s spectacular beauty, the illustration shows that no matter how beautiful a place is, it still doesn´t help the fact that you might be more or less alone in your field of work.

I find the history of surgery facinating. Especially because it´s so contrasting and I wanted the illustration to reflect this. The flesh vs the scalpel or machine. The scientific vs the divine. Or the chaotic vs the precise.
