Manipulating pohotographs

April 17, 2018

I remember when I was a child – I used to love to draw stuff on newspapers. I would find a photo of some boring politician and made him more interesting by drawing mustaches, beards, horns, cigarettes, makeup, clothes, jewellery, you name it! It was so much fun! read more

My favorite theme when painting and drawing (digitally or with acrylic paint, pen, pencil, charcoal) are skulls… Human and animal skulls, beautiful protectors of brains. read more

Vector graphics

March 2, 2018

The wonderful thing about vector graphics is – THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL AT ANY SIZE! 

I learned the basics of working with vectors in Adobe Illustrator. It is truly an amazing and beautiful software with lots of possibilities, even simple to use once you understand the user interface. read more

My first post

February 26, 2018

Hello, and welcome to my new website!

I’ll publish stuff about my own artwork here, but also about awesome artists I like and who inspire me.

I love both digital and traditional art, creepy and cute stuff.

As a graphic designer I’m fascinated how a simple symbol can communicate an idea, so I try not to complicate much when working with vector graphics.

I love sketching with charcoal, graphite, ink, and adore working with acrylic paint.  Oh, I paint with acrylics on anything I can get my hands on! I have to admit, I sometimes flirt with pyrography too!

You can check out some of my artwork and designs in the SHOP section, or go to my stores on Redbubble and Zazzle.

Oh, and follow me on social media, you can find all the links here 😀

Bye for now 😉
