BIO
I´m a designer and illustrator based in Reykjavik, Iceland. I graduated from Product Design from the Iceland Academy of the Arts in 2003 but have been illustrating ever since. I grew up in Munich, Germany until the age of 9. My mother studied sculpture so I got the taste of art in early age. I have lived in Iceland, Italy and Denmark since then but currently live in Reykjavik with my family. My work is inspired by Japanese street design, manga, living things in nature, nightmares, mushrooms, soft forms, edgy subjects, colors and space.
