Olle eksell & more

For design fans: good example how drawing goes hand in hand with design work by Olle Eksell.
Also, look at this book, "Handwritten: Expressive Lettering in the Digital Age " by Steven Heller for some very cool handwritten lettering ideas, one example from the book bellow also.

My work

For those of you who haven't googled me yet and were asking about it in class, you can see some of my illustration work here.
and some of my more recent experiments and thesis work here.
Neither of these are very updated, but I do try.

I am a supporter of creating art communities, so if the grading part didn't spoil it for you, feel free to stay in touch. I will be happy to keep this blog going and post things that are interesting to me in terms of inspiration, artists to watch etc. and I will be happy to see any artists you recommend and your personal work.
Let me know if you need me to re-send you an invitation for the blog.

Good luck with everybody's work, I hope to see it in the future!
