Squidology

Hello. I make drawings and comics. When they are done I usually post them here. It is all very real stuff.

Steamed hams, but it is an ancient cult.

There was a lot of buzz around Lenny. His reign of tyranny is finally over. Please don't tell anyone how he lives now.

A break in 6 years of silence. I had completely forgot that tumblr exists since 2018. I never stopped drawing, and have been working continuously with various books and other projects. Many have been realized, and many more are still stuck inside of my head. Some time in 2021 I god this idea about a person in distress trying to escape from a dark cave, and while it seems that the end is finally near somethning unnerving suddenly appears. I had no idea what to do with it, and time passed. And then Ralph Wiggum suddenly appeared. I have no idea why, but suddenly he was there. Remember Ralph? He's is back. In ancient megalithic statue form. I found out that "In Ralph we trust" could be a fitting title.

On Saturday Høstutstillingen 2018 is opening at Kunstnernes Hus in Oslo. This is supposedly the biggest showcase for contemporary art in Norway. And this year I somehow managed to stumble my way through the application process. And my drawings finally got accepted. I have no idea how I did it, but now it is done. And there is no way back. So at the top floor there will be 90 A3 sized papers with some black ink on them. It opens up to everyone at 14:00 on Saturday the 8th of September. I am absolutely terrified.

Al Khemet 2-33 This is based on a picture I found somewhere online. Sadly I don’t remember who to credit. But the credit goes in spirit to both the photographer and the model. Thank you for watching!
