Commissions and stuff

Sometimes, people come to me with the phrase "I'd love this but on this thing" and I am a people pleaser, so naturally I want to make that happen. And I have! Considering my work is digital, there's usually no problem getting it in a bigger format or even on a specific item, like a notebook for example.

Here, I'd like to show off some of the previous stuff people have ordered from me that wasn't originally available or wasn't even an art piece yet!

Under Construction

Disguised Kelpie

For some of my "fans", my gruesome style is a little too much. But I'm not just a one trick pony (pun intended), I can do tame things too.. like this modified version of my Kelpie.

Notebook

A notebook is something I have available on my Threadless store. But if you're not from the US the extra cost of shipping might not be that tempting. So, a friend of mine came to me with the request of a cheaper alternative. Me with my special sources (Vistaprint), provided.

Mythical Painting

This technically wasn't a commission. Rather it was a gift given so someone as part of a secret santa event. She who got it was a fan of homemade stuff and mythology so how could I resist. I also handwrote a piece of paper that I had painted with coffee and burnt the edges off of. It held info about the creature in question! I thought it was neat.

Awaken the Atlas EP

So when I went to the Swedish equivalent of high school I studied music. And in my class there were some extremely cool people. Talented fucks all around.

Some of these create some badass music even now and one of them reached out to me with a commission. To create the artwork for their first EP.

They wanted a haunted opera house.. and if you look at what I've drawn in the past... you'll know I don't really draw a lot of buildings.. But.. I tried my best and it's now being used to launch their fantastic symphonic metal. Ain't that cool?

Springflod - Ceaseless Deluge

The fun thing about musicians, is that they usually never stick to just one thing. Like Andreas, the singer of Awaken The Atlas.. I also know him as a part of a band called Dahlia and now this project with himself and our old teacher Stefan.

The extra fun thing is that since I've worked for him before, they came to me for their album cover. And this one was a blast to design! It was closer to what I usually enjoy drawing and I had a lot of artistic freedom with it.

I hadn't heard the music beforehand, but I did know that both of them are incredibly talented and boy was I right. This instrumental masterpiece is definitely worth a listen! If you are a fan of guitar gods, that is
