Get a grip!


Norwegian Newspaper BT, is campaigning fir safer roads. Again, the young drivers are at risk. The numbers of deaths from speeding are soaring. That has to stop.

Cool parents


Is it better to be a 'cool', relaxed and 'hip' parent rather than strict? This illustration accompanied an article that clearly said NO. In the long run the child benefits from having 'no- nonsense' parents who sets clear limits. The hipster parents often ends up being fooled and manipulated by the child, who has learned from an early age that there are no repercussions and effects of his or her behaviour.

Academic capitalism


Illustration for Universitas, describing the forced academic research going on in modern universities. Ranking high on academic research lists in respected newspapers is more important than the research itself.

Roadkill!

New illustration for BT magasinet. Alcohol, cars and motorcycles don't not mix well. Still lots of young people die every year of just this lethal mixture of foolhardiness and plain ignorance. Not only do they put their own life at risk but also others. A tragic and pointless way of exiting this life. Don't drink and drive!

Behaving badly online


This illustration for BT is about online verbal abuse. Its a bad, bad trend. Girls and boys bullying fellow online surfers. Hiding behind the mask which is anonymity of the web, they get their outlets in chat rooms, youtube and on various blogs (in the comment sections etc).
