Last year I collaborated with Grid Branding on a super fun packaging project. For a few years now Linnéa Myhre and Solo Super have teamed up and made a special soda together. The first was a Christmas soda, and then they did a summer variety. This time they wanted something tropical with pineapple and grapefruit. I really love the colours they chose! They wanted a surfing pineapple character, and for the background to be inspired by Lofoten in Northern Norway. I really enjoy packaging projects, so this was right up my alley.
Forelska?
Last year I had the pleasure of doing the layout and design for the Norwegian translations of the French graphic novel series ‘Coeur Collège’', or ‘Forelska?’ as it’s called here.
The second book just came out and is published by fontini.no
Greeting Cards
I recently illustrated a collection of greeting cards, with different animals. I wanted each card to have a limited color palette and at the same time, a nice variety of colors for the whole collection. They are available for licensing :)
Happy Holidays
I love Christmas, and enjoy illustrating everything Christmas related. I just finished illustrating a happy squirrel receiving a yummy treat.
#naken
Earlier this year I illustrated the cover for the YA novel, #naken (#nude), written by Nina Rossing. It was such a fun cover to illustrate, and I love the simplicity of it! I also enjoyed making the little surprise under the dust jacket as well. Published by Vigmostad & Bjørke
Den gylne stjerne
My newest book cover is here. Den gylne stjerne, written by Lena Lindahl was such a joy to work with. I loved the brief and the direction they wanted to go.

Chocolate packaging concept
I really enjoy illustrating packaging, so I decided to illustrate a series of chocolate packaging. Who doesn’t love chocolate, right? I know I do, so here’s a concept of dark chocolate with sea salt, hence the underwater mermaid theme. I also wanted to illustrate the ingredients in a fun way, and make every package stand out, with a distinct colour palette and different hair, but be cohesive at the same time, so the background and the overall layout is the same.
Philadelphia – Japan
Hello, hello! Welcome to my very first news post! :D
Last year I was commissioned to illustrate a limited edition packaging for Philadelphia cream cheese in Japan, for their winter edition. They wanted a happy design with winter motifs and a soft atmosphere, unrelated to Christmas, with elements of animals and plants suitable for the cold weather. I chose squirrels and small birds that stay in Norway for the cold season. They also wanted some other elements that went with the cosy cold weather theme, so I chose gloves, a matching hat and hot chocolate, among other things.
It was so much fun, and I even got my name on the packaging as well, which was a nice surprise :)
