Background:

I've been a compulsive drawer since early age, always busy with whatever pen and paper I could get my hands on. I began by working extensively in traditional media, but have in recent years been experimenting with incorporating digital techniques into my artwork.

After having completed the economical program in senior high, I studied Psychology, Literature and Arts at the university of Gothenburg. I then proceeded to multimedia and webdesign studies at ITC (now sadly defunct), which occupied me for two years, before I proceeded to work in this field.

Present:

In the summer of '99, I decided to go solo as a freelancing illustrator and for this reason I formed Cabin fever media. Things have gone splendid so far, and I've had the pleasure of working with a vast amount of interesting projects, including over 150 album covers - some for bands selling well over the 100 000 mark.

Future:

Future endeavours include branching out into editorial illustration and animation as well as finding time for some personal projects. Stay tuned for more info!
