Hey guys!
Had some time today for a little speedpaint in addition to my studies! Woohoo! The concept of a hidden city in the jungle is a very cool one, and I don’t think I’ve explored it before, so I did today. I kinda like this 30 minute sketch, so I think I’ll refine it and do a finished piece of it. (Click for larger version)
I have been thinking about adding another sub page to the site for a while where I would do a more in depth look at individual projects and pieces. I would very much like your thoughts on this. If you’d find it interesting or rubbish and if it’d be nice to see some steps, thoughts and background on what I do both with professional work and personal art? I’d arrange it so there would be some more meat to each post so to speak. Say if there’s a particular world I’m developing, you’d get to know a bit more than just the final pieces.
Do leave a comment on here about that! Very interested in hearing you guys’ thoughts!
Right.. and the studies :)
Hey guys! Just a warmup study again. Got this awesome fatcap vinyl from my girl, so I placed him on my Constructive Anatomy book and painted :) Fun study for sure!
I’m doing some character designs for work these days, and having a blast with that!
Looks like I’m going to be doing something with ImagineFX as well for the magazine! Good times! I’m stoked! :D I’ll update on what happens there when I know for sure!
Just a speedy from tonight. Saira and I were sitting in front of the tube and I just splattered some color around and saw what came of it. Been a while since I’ve done that, and it was really fun to just eff’ around a little! I should do it more often.. haha
Did a quick warmup today.. would’ve liked to spend more time on it, but I gotta get going with the rest of the stuff I gotta do :) Gonna do some character design work today, and hopefully get some more work in on a personal illustration. If I get that far, I’ll post later today as well :)
Hi, guys! Had a little breather while waiting for a new contract, so I did these sword concepts. I needed a little more weapon concept art for the ol’ portfolio, and I haven’t done much of swords before. My girlfriend bought this awesome book for me with weapons, both blades and guns and everything in between, so I got super inspired, and this is what came out of it :)
I have time for some quick work right now, if anyone needs anything done! Drop me a mail
Thanks for dropping by!
Yeah, so I had a little breather in between gigs which I figured I’d spend doing some concept art for a personal project I’ve picked up again; the steampunk meets western thing I have going.. I also had the brilliant idea of trying to install windows 7, seeing as how I was fed up with vista.. turns out 7 was pretty unstable on my system as well.. so I’ve spent the last two days fighting to get my machine to work again.. panic indeed! I ended up reverting to XP in the end.. and now my machine is totally stable, works faster than ever and I’m generally really happy about that!
Anyways.. I had time to finish up a character design I started on a while back, so here he is :)

Just wanted to drop in.. I’m aware that I’m not updating a whole lot since January, and I just wanted you all to know that I’m still here :D I’m done with a couple of contracts in a few days, and when I have a breather, I’m gonna work on a personal project.. well.. that is, I’ve picked up a personal project I was into a while ago; the steampunk western world.. The plan is some more character concepts and some environment concept art for that world when I get the time. Also I have to do something about the site.. it’s a little too…white at the moment.. I switched from the black one, hoping this would be easier on the eye, and I think it is, but I want a little sumtin’ sumtin’ to break up the big areas of white on the main page.. Fredrik at Overvåkningsbutikken helped me out with a new theme for wordpress, so I’ll probably go to him when I get that far.
I’m doing my daily studies of course, and I’ve started a new master study after the Rockwell I finished up a couple of posts back.. this time, in a moment of insanity, I started doing a master study of Jean-Leon Gérôme’s “Police Verso”.. it’s kicking my ass! But I’ll keep fighting until I kick ITS ass!

Hey people! Just wanted to paint something quick before bed..
Been working a couple of really long days now, so I needed to just have some fun slopping paint around :D Guess listening to Immortal Technique and Delinquent Habits while painting returns results like this :P
“In the hood, no one can hear you scream”
I’m working on a bunch of illustrations for a tabletop rpg and some creature designs for a feature length film these days! As soon as NDA’s lift, I’ll bring some stuff to show and tell! Not sure when that will be though, but I’ll be doing some personal fun stuff in between work as well and update on here!
Thanks for looking!
Hey everyone! Just a little art update with a recent WIP.. nothing groundbreaking with the concept here, but I wanted to do a classic fantasy illustration, so I went for an army of badguys that have just gotten the “CHARGE!!!” order :)
I’ll post the finished thing when I get there! I gotta squeeze in personal work and studies in between gigs now, which I’m grateful for! Still have capacity for more, so if you wanna hire me, drop me a line!
In other news, I did some concept art work for Storyline Studios on a project they have going now. I can’t spill the beans yet, but I can’t wait to see the finished product! It’s gonna be awesome! I was working at their studo, and the guys over there were a blast to work with! If you guys see this; thanks for the opportunity, and I really look forward to working with you again!
Anyway.. ’nuff hollerin’ and more art! Here’s the fantasy-illo-WIP and a couple of morning studies. (Click for larger versions)

Did this one for the conceptart.org newborn competition a while back. Had a look at it now, and I still kinda like the idea, but I believe I’ll work over this one again to bring it up to par.. I’ll be sure to let you know when I get that far.
And some Crimson Dagger studies:
The Rockwell study is, as it states, a work in progress! Learning heaps by studying the golden age cats!
