More books.. this time something ´old´, I got the chance to illustrate this classic book series from Arthur Ransome. Worked together with Art Director James Jones from Vintage Classics. It was really fun to design a look for the whole series with James. He did also a nice post about the covers to his fantastic CMYK blog, take a look here. More covers are in the pipeline. Stay tuned.
Happy Book Day! Above cover I did a while back for Susie Steiner´s debut book. It was a fun job. Thanks for Eleanor Crow for the great art direction.
I think it could be a good day to post my “Queen Biketrix” piece I did for the opening of Pekka Agency´s Amsterdam office last year.
Have a nice retirement Queen.

FINISHED_FINAL_DEF
If you´re in Holland this week don´t miss the the Finished_Final_Def exhibition which is part of the Graphic Design Festival Breda. I´m presenting the process behind the JuhlaMokka coffee tin along with other great artists. Check more details HERE. The festival is looking really good.. wish I could be there in person.

BUILDERS OF THE FUTURE
Another fun job I did this spring for the Helsinki Design Museum. The exhibition runs the whole summer, so plenty of time visit this great exhibition if you´re in Helsinki.
Have a great summer!

Just got my copies of SHOP Dusseldorf Magazine. Helsinki cover coming soon!
I illustrated this book cover for Laura Lähteenmäki’s North End. This book is the first in the futuristic post apocalyptic young adult fiction series.
Bye rabbit. Enter the dragon. Happy 2012!
A good part of this summer I worked with Studio8 and Global Blue Media along with other top notch and my personal favorite illustrators on SHOP Magazine covers project. Now Kemistry Gallery London is showing 38 of these covers. These limited-edition prints of the illustrations will be available for sale at the exhibition. Profits will go to Kids Company, a London-based charity which provides education and support for vulnerable inner-city children. The show is open only till 26th of November so you still have some time to catch some great illustration, maybe get a piece of art to your home and donate for a good cause.
More info about the show here. + prints for sale here. I´ll post more about the project and all the covers soon(ish) here too.
