Sven undercover poodle #7

Strangely enough this little comic seem to be a bigger hit over at my flickr site (it's not finished, and now my daughters are on me to continue it)

Sea Monster

Did this one in the summertime at the same time as I did my other electric fishes, didn't get to post it then though

The story continues a little earlier than I had expected.

God Jul

I've made a Christmas card that we are sending out to friends and relatives. If you happen to be in that circle, sorry for destroying the suprise

Going undercover, and some more crocodiling

Sven undercover poodle #3

At last love(?) and violence(!) enters the story. Just in case you haven't heard of the new way of listening to music via the web I can recommend Spotify. You can sign up for free (there's some short commercials but they are not to long and spread apart).

The plot thickens...

Sven the undercover poodle #1

This is the start of a small comic I made while going by train from Stockholm to Malmö last week, it's in Swedish so I have to translate it all (which is kind of a drag). There's an interview with my wife over at Design Tavern, head over there if you feel a bit peckish

Housetree, complete

Shamelessly re-used as this weeks Illustration Friday, the theme was spot on, Intricate.. Finished this piece, I'm taking a blogging break this weekend back on Monday. With some comics (I have to translate it from Swedish though

Housetree color process #2

Lunch taken care of. The hand is really starting to hurt now, it's always the hardest when using a brush

Colorprocess of housetree

I've started to color the housetree, the ink bleed rather more then usual when I whetted the paper (I should probably have waited a day longer), but I will have to live with that. I will start color the rest after lunch

Housetree the lines

Came back from two very wet days in Malmö, meet Soo (one of my oldest blog friends) the first night, we had a nice chat, before I went to my rather nightmarish hostel. Two packed days at the Serifrämjandet and a visit to Louisiana muesum (that's in Denmark). Tonight I will enjoy all the wonders that is my own bed! I hope to finish this piece tomorrow (hopefully in time of the deadline)

animal nitrate

I'm in malmö (I hope this is blogged in advance) today we're going to Louisiana Art museum in
