Anorak Magazine: Isle of PO

I have an illustration in the latest issue of Anorak Magazine. I've been wanting to do something for them for a really long time so it was a little bit of a dream come true when they asked me to illustrate a story for them!

Let's Fika! exhibition

Me and some friends are putting on an illustration exhibition at Fika on 161 Brick lane in a couple of weeks.  It's a visual celebration of the tradition of Fika, featuring the work of 6 Swedish illustrators; Hanna Melin, Emma Löfström, Danijela Dobric, Åsa Wikman, Martin Wollerstam and me. 

The exhibition shows our different interpretations of what fika means. It's also about Sweden being Swedish; the smell of your grandmother freshly bakes cinnamon buns, long light summer nights, summer vacations that never ends and going swimming in cool black lakes.

The private view is on the 13th of September between 4-6.30pm, if you want to come along please RSVP with the subject line Let's Fika to wikmanillustration(a)gmail.com. It'd be great to see as many of you as possible there!

Raymond Savignac

Right now I'm working on a commission where I was asked to have a look at the french illustrator Raymond Savignac for inspiration. I'd never heard of him before but I really like his work so I thought I'd share it with you.
