Realistic drawings made with pastels and pencils. Very carefully applied layer by layer, one line at a time. And yes, it takes a lot of time. About 20-60 hours per drawing. Why would you? Because nature does that brilliantly: bringing every tiny detail in connection in a complex collaboration called an organism. Each individual is in turn part of a greater network.

Elephant Head - Card And Print Drawing
After i obtained my master's degree in archeology, i decided to turn my biggest hobby into my job - as i've secretly always wanted to. So i had no art education. Drawing, which i do with pastels and pastel pencils, i taught myself by experimenting and observing my subject carefully.
I didn't want to stop at 'just' drawing. I want to tell a story, collaborate with charities, and set up my own projects. My mission: to promote better cooperation with nature, and to ensure that there is more attention for animals. Fortunately, there is plenty to see in my drawings - they are so detailed for a reason. The biggest compliment i can get is when someone says "i can keep looking at it".
