RISOPRINTS
The risoprints I designed from 2020 - 2022. You can see a little how my style changes, but the riso is definitely staying! I illustrated a lot of more experimental and still colorful prints in 2020. At the end of that year I discovered the 3D tool in illustrator and I now love combining my flat vector work with 3D shapes. I also made a zine this year where I made really fun and colorful shapes and patterns and I experimented with riso animation! Lots of discoveries in 2022. I still love the older prints too, some are still so fun and playful and often a bit more story based than the ones I made later. I would still to risoprint a whole picture book someday, to be published. Maybe about a cowboy or a wizard... I have so many ideas, but not enough time! :)

WILLY WONKA ZINE
The Sweetness project. I really wanted to make some experimental work and try out some new, more abstract and artistic things. I was experimenting with 3D work, and decided to combine 3D and risoprinting. I wanted to create a lot of candy-like shapes, without making it actual candies. I called the zine Willy Wonka, because he was a experimental candy artist and I thought that fit really well. Yum
