Space kind of crowded theese days

200 posts and encounting

Yes reached two hundred posts today, was pick of the week at Illustration Friday, life's a rush. For the faint of faith a proof that I'm a bonafida Pigfarmer, from the newspaper "arbetet" circa 1997, Svinfarmare is pig farmer in Swedish A newly inked page from the sketchbook Coco is still depressed, his art really starts to depress me big time. Happy surfing and have a great weekend!

COCO in Love

Cocos work had taken a bad turn, he'd stopped out his typical magic stuff. Everything was dark and gloomy not with the Adolfsson esprit. I pressed him a little and the truth started to sip out. Strolling in the Park he suddenly saw the most beautiful thing he ever saw. Coco lost his heart. Her name was Coca, she was a show girl with yellow feather in her hair... They talked for hours... Until Coca's boyfriend came. Coco's heart broke in two... Coco will never sing again he says, and his art will forever be dark To be continued.....

Even the mighty look small upon a tall mountain, for Illustration Friday

Train in vain

Did this while returning from Boksåpet, I managed to sound incoherent as usual while speaking about my pictures but it was very nice, thanks Mia and Frida. Camilla came as well we had a nice chat. Made my future illustration available as print through this site, if anyone is interested.

Pigs at 1900

Tomorrow there's a small happening at Bokskåpet (where I had my last show). I and some other illustrators will speak about our illustrations and show some of our works... . As the theme is Christmas orientated I made two small drawings. Home for Christmas And Christmas piggy's The Adress is: Boksåpet Barn & Ungdomsbokhandel Värmlandsgatan 20 Göteborg and it starts 19.00 Help I can't stop listening to the song Confetti by the Lemonheads

Pivotal moments in the history of music

Just starting up

Made this one when I re-started my drawing last autumn, never finished it as I got a job about the same time. This time I didn't stop drawing though and hopefully I never will stop again.

Off to space

Hopefully the first Swedish Astronaut will have a less bumpy ride

Reproducing sketchbooks

Trying to find ways of reproducing my sketchbooks, as digital prints and books, this I soon find takes a lot of work, only to edit out the center folds, choosing to go black and white or keeping the yellow hue (perhaps tp print on yellowish paper instead). Must also decide if/what kind of printer to choose, there is quite a lot of good ink jet printers nowadays. Any suggestions on printers would be much appreciated. And I do take requests if someone has a favorite page from any moleskine, I'll try to be quite moderate when I come to pricing.

Automated Hydra

Made for this week Illustration Friday Invention, If I was an inventor a fully automated Hydra would come first. Wouldn't it be nice to have one? If a head gets broken a new one is created.

Survival of the fittest

47 different species of birds, last spread in my third large moleskine. I bought two new ones this is getting to be quite an expensive hobby.

Olivia's Birthday

It's my eldest daughters tenth birthday tomorrow made her some cards for her presents, if you want to check out how our dog and cat looks in the flesh apart from my drawing check this (Kalle and Asta) Tamagotchi for Olivia Tamagotchi for Olivia (for keeping the peace in the household) Well this one is not so revealing, doubt you can guess the present

Moleskine number #5, and encounting

I call this one the great party, that's the type of Festivities I'd like to arrange And today why not visit Sara in Austria, her stuff makes me think of medieval church art, (those where the days).

Addicted to blog

According to new research it's possible to be addicted to blogging and constant email checking, akin to chemical addiction apparently. While reading about this I felt a pang of recognition is this someone else have to, should one be worried? And on the lighter side, house bliss And if your still with me, why not visit Argentina and two great bloggers: diburtimentos with some wild drawing, (Freud whould have a field day) and mi-bulin, his stuff always make me think of music, (it's got a jazzy feel to it). And try to stay out of addiction , go out and get some fresh air!
