Profile

I am an illustrator and cartoonist based in Helsinki, Finland. I create art for books, magazines, products, animations, and websites. I mainly work digitally, but I often like to add hand-drawn textures to bring some warmth to my work. I’m often inspired by mid-century modern design and nature, and I love bright colours and strong, clean shapes. When I’m not working, I spend my time reading, watching movies, observing clouds, and hanging out with my ever-demanding dachshund.
