I am a Swedish illustrator and designer who works in London. I love character design, doodling and patterns, being inspired by childhood memories, my bad sense of humour, and my love for nature.

Recently, I got to work on a series of illustrations for Toronto-based sportswear label, Muttonhead Collective. Their passion, combined with a commitment to fair trade and ethical practices, is something rarely seen in this day and age. I tried to create my own interpretation of the brand and their clothing through the combination of different mediums, using natural and organic elements as well as neutral colours.

French illustrator McBess is one of my heroes. His work is so beautiful to look at, and even more beautiful when you squint to see each tiny line or dot in his illustrations. Read more

Born in Germany and living in London since 2002, Sandra Dieckmann’s work is full of compassion towards nature. Animals feature heavily in her artwork, as do geometrical shapes and mix media methods, to create rich illustrations that not only look pretty, but hold strong messages about how disconnected we can be from the world around us.

I’ve always had a fascination with abstract images, so when I stumbled upon Texas-based artist Taylor McClure, I loved how the colors of his illustrations popped out. Basing his artwork on random doodles in his sketchbooks, he creates abstract and vivid images that really stand out. Read more

I’ve been an avid follower of the work of New York-based illustrator, Sara Blake, aka HelloZSO, for several years now. Blake is a rare breed of artist who seems to have found a perfect combination of traditional and digital elements in her work. In 2011, she launched the 100 Girls series, an exploration of how a drawing style can evolve through repeated subject matter. Read more

Pat Perry’s illustrations turn me into a mouth-breather because they are so jaw dropping good. He does work for some pretty big clients, like Reef, Urban Outfitters, and Bonnaroo. But it is his personal work that I think is the most interesting. Read more

Heading over to Metropolis for a vacation to check out Superman’s stomping ground isn’t quite feasible yet, and the shuttle to Gotham City hasn’t yet commenced. But you can get these vintage travel posters for your wall. Dave Ault’s illustrations, covering Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Flash and more DC Comics heroes, give you a minimalist mid-century travel feel. Read more

Adrian Tomine is one of the finest cartoonists and illustrators of this generation, alongside the iconic Chris Ware and Daniel Clowes. He began his career Xeroxing copies of his comics for distribution, and stubbornly chooses to work in a medium as deliberately obscure as independent comics. While he continues to develop his ongoing series Optic Nerve (currently entering its fifteenth year of publication), he’s also the illustrator of choice for the New Yorker.

If you ever happen to find yourself riding across the mid-west on horseback with an iPod jangling about in your holster, be sure to let Calexico soundtrack the experience. They’re cleverly fusing a range of genres, mixing some good old country with US indie, a bit of jazz and even, in 2003’s Feast of Wire, some smatterings of electronica. Lead singer Joey Burns gives a healthy amount of cowboy twang and the soaring orchestral background and sweet country guitar licks add a real atmosphere to the music.

Listen to the Calexico song, Convict Pool.
