So, who am I then?

Löv KLAR_edited.jpg

Well the simple answer is this:  I am a lot.

A playful illustrator, designer, musician and creator of things and stuff. I love using all different kinds of media, and my favorites right now are graphic design and ink illustration.

And my favorite thing to make is a pattern. ​

​

(I love patterns!!!)​​​

​

what have
I been 
up to until now?

Same answer again:  A lot.

​​​​But, since you asked, here's a bit of my story.

 

​It all started in the forests of Småland, an idyllic countryside province in southern Sweden. That's where I grew up, running across meadows, swimming in any lake I could find, picking mushrooms in the pine forests and learning the names of all the tiny little birds visiting our backyard. ​

​​​As a kid, my biggest dream was to make a living as a nature photographer. To travel the world and take pictures of all the curious things in nature. I later studied and took some work in the field of photography. But while meddling there, I found graphic design and fell in love with it. ​

 

That wasn't the only thing I fell in love with though.

But by trying to do all the things I loved, at the same time, I quickly burned out.

Since then I had to learn to really listen to my body. 

Now, my body is my best friend.

And it tells me exactly ​what I need to hear when I need to hear it.

So while I sometimes run around very fast, I oftentimes intentionally move   v  e  r  y    s  l  o  w  . â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹

(Hence the reminder "Sakta ner" on the back of my business cards.

                        It's Swedish, and literally means "Slow down".)

And what about now?

​​​​​Well, after recovering, I inevitably found my way back to the design field. (I truly just enjoy making stuff!) This time with a different focus, perspective and voice though. Most of the stuff I design are things that I myself want and need. Things that connect me to what I value and art that reminds me of what I need to remember. Mainly it's rooted the bodys' connection to nature

and focused on the importance of both joyful play and​​​​​

 

​​​​​

And while doing all this, I came to learn that:

I'm not that different from many of the people around me.

It seems as though most of us could use a little reminder every now and then.

 

So now I make my art for you as well. 

​​

And that, my loves, is the story. Or parts of it at least.

And now, while you are scrolling around this little world wide web page of mine,

I truly hope that you enjoy seeing my stuff as much as I do making it.
