Fusion of pen strokes
I make this fast drawings almost every day and capture the process in small movies on Instagram @tovehennix. Some of the illustrations ends up on tote-bags and T-shirts available at society6 and redbubble. I plan to make new art and products every week this year.

Here are some samples on how it all turns out
My 100 monster badges exhibition in Tokyo, 2007
This collection of monsters and spirits are inspired by old folk stories, bedtime stories, superstitions, spooky, supernatural and mysterious things that gives you chills. Childhood stories you heard from a friend about monsters lurking in bedrooms or outside the window. Stories that bring your imagination to life. We all get scared sometime, but the things that scare us are different. And the scary feeling is different too, some people like the thrill of being scared others don’t. Some things maybe seem nice at first, but aren’t when you look at it a bit closer.

Zaragoza 2008
Illustration for a big print during the childrens day at Expo Zaragoza (World Fair) 2008, placed at the Swedish Trade Council Pavilion. The year’s expo theme was water, with a lot of focus and attention to the fact that it’s becoming harder to maintain and preserve for many different reasons.
