I’ve been working on this book (among other projects) for almost three years! 🖤✨ It’s the 27th book I’m illustrating, and but this is the most personal to me since I was there from the beginning, inventing the characters and the world together with author Frode Eie Larsen!

First time I get to make a detailed map like this! I found it really hard at first, but once I lay the first layer of charcoal powder it started to appear more easily.. 🖤✨ Welcome to Alvheim, in #skrothandlerensdatter ✨🖤✨

It really takes time to make a book like this with hand drawn illustrations all the way! Closing in on the last days. Really hoping this will be well received in Norway and find its readers! 🖤✨

Got to visit my daughter’s school today to show what an illustrator does! It was so much fun! 😍 Think I inspired a few to draw more and to see that this is actually a real job.. 😆
