Summary

I am a Norwegian concept artist, character designer and illustrator currently looking for opportunities in games and animation. My interests range from fantasy, historical settings, horror, contemporary settings, and much, much more. I love to explore various art styles and mediums to deliver an artwork that tells a story.

Having done several years of freelancing, I have worked with companies such as Polargryph, Antimatter Games, Torn Banner, BBC, and more, making games such as Soria, Mirage: Arcane Warfare, and other unannounced projects. I am an advocate for ethical working conditions in the games industry and strive to create a healthy, happy, and thriving workplace.
