As long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the consept of the Samurai warrior. / Manga has also had some influence on this picture, even though I was hardly ever exposed to it through my childhood. / But the last ten years, as I have been working only with graphics, and with perfecting my drawing skills. / And it is through this work that I have been exposed to Manga a lot, and I think it has influenced me quit a bit, and it shines through especially in my character design. / If you like this picture, you might enjoy this one as well Ore maybe this one… Enjoy and have a good time :-)
When we go for a walk, if you go off the path and look over the fence this is the view you have.
Lately I have been trying out another inking technique and I have tried to simplify my designs down to the absolute necessary. / This is my third attempt at this way of going about it, and I must say myself that I am a lot more satisfied with this design than earlier character designs I did before I started to simplify things. / It is obvious that the old mantra about minimizing everything down to a minimum is something to pay close attention to. / Simplicity is the word ladies and gangsters… POS
Once again have I been granted the great honor of having one of my works chosen for exposure...
Once again have I been granted the great honor of having one of my works chosen for exposure on the Home page of Redbubble.com…. / Thank you very much bubble movers and shakers, ladies and gangsters. POS

I want to show you that I am not the only creative person in my family. / You see as I am doodling away on our Napoleon project my mom has been knitting this most fantastic pullover after old Norwegian tradition… She is working full time (68 years old/young), but still she managed to knit this marathon job in less than two month. / She knits as she watch TV!! / / The flipped out model is my son Ivan Sleen Andersson… / You see it has been knitted as a birthday gift to my brother Inge, but he was not available as the shot was made …and as you might have guessed Inge is about twice the size of my son :-) I’ve also published the picture here on my picture blog POS
Its winter, the snow is falling, covering the trees, and I… I’m in love!
Concept: Mother is melting ~ The Ice the fury of the sun, the haze….............Global warming is not just a trendy thing. / Description: This is the sun setting over a farm. The night before there was a brutal ice rain Ice storm. This left a case of ice over everything. I love the colors and the shimmer it added. ENJOY. I still have numerous versions of this day….......... want More? They are also available on my DA site. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

This is the motive I have made for a band I am doing the CD cover and all the rest of what ever they need for marketing (blog, posters, tickets and so on) for. / The bands name is Tassili (the on who walks) and they do the most exciting music I’ve heard since I was made aware of our very own muskularteeth / The sort of music they play has been called “Sahara Blues” (cool he?) in the media the last year ore so (here in Norway anyway). For those of you having problems with such things, THEY ARE NOT MUSLIMS. but atheists (I think) from Morocco and Norway. / You see if they were in any way religious (ore as I see it not intelligent, open minded, including and learning/spiritually eveolving humans) I wouldn’t work for them….simple as that. / Christians and muslims, budists and sun worshipers is to me all the same. It has no place in a modern society built upon science, logic and reason. / I guess in that way I am a bigot. / I also never did any gigs ore briefs for ANY political unit what so ever. Never as a musician ore as a graphics artist and Illustrator. / I am also contemplating giving up contributing to the marketing efforts of various companies, cos I believe it is bad and very wrong what most of them do, and that goes for me to as long as I let them use my skills to peddle shit we didn’t know we needed til they convinced us it is so. This in turn keep us in debt and stuck in some shit job working for the man and our morgage. / Art is art, and must not prostitute itself. Neither for religion nor politics. / Cos then we are lost. Without a provoking art scene, humanity is lost….believe me if you must believe something. I believe in art, freedome and the right to provoke at any time and place….also religions witch I DON’T consider holy…(goes for all of them). POS / /

Fort Myers, Florida Songy DSC H 7 1/125s / I SO 400 / f 4.5 / Focal length 78.0 A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature. / Ralph Waldo Emerson It is the friends that you can call at 4 A.M. that matter. / Marlene Dietrich Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light. / Albert Schweitzer However rare true love may be, it is less so than true friendship. / François Duc de La Rochefoucauld The most deadly fruit is borne by the hatred which one grafts on an extinguished friendship. / Gotthold Ephraim Lessing Friends are God’s way of apologizing to us for our families. / Unknown Nine-tenths of the people were created so you would want to be with the other tenth / Horace Walpole What a wretched lot of old shrivelled creatures we shall be by-and-by. Never mind—the uglier we get in the eyes of others, the lovelier we shall be to each other; that has always been my firm faith about friendship. / George Eliot
Oven in a ruin i know its about 300 years old and look at how nature has taken over
This is the start picture in a graphic novel I just started drawing. The name of the baby is “The St. Pauli Blues” and the episode is called “The Accountant”. / I am planning to have this made for myself (as soon as I can afford) huge!...most likely a print from the bubble of course. I have now finally seen some of their prints in real life, and I must say I am impressed and wants a few for my studio… / The drawing was both sketched and inked directly on to the final paper used for the actual inking process. / But first I printed a very weak copy of the contours of the photo I used for reference (found on Flickr) on to the paper. I traced the contours of the photo by hand trace on my home made light table, and then scanned them. I also had a copy of the photo on screen as I was sketching and inking to look at for the details. / The paper in question is Canson XL Marker paper. / It’s a A4 70g 100 sheets of paper pad. I do warmly recommend this product for working with markers. / The pens used for this final rendering is exclusively Edding pens of various thickness and dynamics. The Edding series is another product I recommend for artists at all levels. They are refillable (not the real thin ones…but they last very long), and has an incredible dynamic range. It is no problem faking brush strokes at all if wanted. The ink is real good and pitch black.. and they are very much avilable all over. They beat Sharpies by a long stretch on all the important issues. I hope the picture is to some ones taste, to an extend where they’d like to stick it on their living room wall….or the loo :-) Thanks for checking out my art….have a nice and creative life all of you
This is my very very dearest friend .. Maggie….at Robin Hoods Bay Near Whitby…...she had just came out of hospital after her last operation for terminal cancer, she felt so well and it was one of her good days. I wanted a good shot of her being happy as she pretended to fall off the cliff i set the sony timer up and leaped into the back of the pic ..she did not know the camera was set till after the shot..she passed away in my arms only days later and this will always be my very special memories to her. When I look at this picture I think of hands of love. / My son had this picture etched on to glass with the words love and light engraved upon it for a christmas gift i was overwhelmed. It lights up with Lcd lighting to enhance the moment. You are welcome to share Maggies lighted moment. / Her Last moment story should have been entered for the chanllenge the day I cried,,,The world how I see it….or how I missed it. But after I wrote it I coudnt stop crying(Healing tears)That I forgot to enter it. Therfore in her memory I am entering this instead but you can read the story if you go to the group. Thank you in love and light. FEATURED IN SISTERS IN ARMS Sept 2009 / Featured In The world how we se it or how we missed it Oct 2009 All sales of this picture will go to CANCER SUPPORT THANK YOU.

A few months ago I visited Grange Over Sands and there was a lovely duck pond there. Its a lovely little village and worth stopping here for an ice cream and a couple of photo’s of the ducks.
Heres another shot of a duck as it was flapping its wings in the water at the Grange Over Sands duck pond.
This duck was just posing for me as I pointed my camera at him/her. Just kidding it was pure photographic timing on my behalf- honest!
Unusual photo taken at a local Wedding , this Lady was just sitting there….waiting
