Illustration : The Danish Dream

I did a new magazine illustration on friday, you can have a look at it in the portfolio. The subject was an article about norwegian identity and Danskebåten, Norwegians going til Denmark to drink and eat Danish salami.

Looking at it now I can see that the character on this one is somewhat inspired of my intensive study of the series Sopranos the last few weeks. It´s not supposed to be an illustration of James Gandolfini but I guess the reference is quite obvious (though unintended!). Season 6 of Sopranos is great so far. It´s more comic than the previous seasons, isn´t it? Great anyway.

I´m working on a bunch of illustrations for an upcoming book, an instructive book explaining politics for children. I´m looking forward to sharing them on the portfolio within a few weeks.

My friends in Lost At Last is in the studio these days recording new heavy metal classics. Read their studio-diary over at their myspacepage. I´ve heard a clip from the new recording, it´s amazing. If there´s any justice in the world this will be a real hit.
