Julegavetips – brannfakkelversjon

Boikott de dølle juleheftene som serverer det samma rælet hvert år!

Ved å kjøpe ´Kapteinens jul´ oppmuntrer du pengepugerne til å skvise enda mer penger ut av dette råtne liket. Om dette hadde vært film, hadde du ikke hørt annet enn pianoklimpring, mens en klossete fyr slår folk i skallen med en planke han har over skulderen.

Dette kan ikke godtas. La museumene overta oldsakene. Nei til Tvangsgutane!

Om du vil ha en endring, må du dermed stemme med lommeboka.

Med andre ord, kjøp boka mi!

Redd norske serier fra morkne museumsobjekter.

I wanted to give a little peek behind the curtain and show the workflow of one of the pages in my most recent book.

Skjebnebok Spotify Playlist

Inspirert av den eminente Øyvind Holens playlist for hans og Mikael Noguchi sitt “Drabant”-prosjekt, skramlet jeg sammen litt passende øresnacks for boka. Klikk på bildet for å høre.

In case you didn´t know…

Us kids in Nazca released a brand new video for a brand new tune off our brand new album. It´s worth your precious time. Trust me. Check it out.

A very stupid video of a stupid thing to do.

Texture

In my new book, I´m working with a lot of hand-drawn-ish styles, so I needed some textures. The only dried out marker I could find was pink, which made the process so much more beautiful and garish.
Scanned it all in and blended with the rest of the artwork, it looks bloody awesome, if I may say so myself.

Come June and everyone else can see it too.

Jean Giraud R.I.P

Jean Giraud, better known under his nom-de-plume Moebius, succumbed to cancer today, 73 years old.

I had the enormous privilege of meeting him during the Kemi comics festival 2003. I am today saddened by his demise, as well as happy I was able to tell him personally how much his art inspired me to continue drawing through my youth, well after my peers had lost interest.

I don´t believe in talent, I think you become good by not quitting. I think I am not alone in having Moebius´ art as an inspiration in not quitting during those crucial years.

Again, thank you, Mr. Giraud.
