A collection of my darker works, looking at subjects and themes that most consider taboo. (or other, fringe motifs) While others may only see death & depravity, I focus on the beautiful aspects of the dark and uncomfortable.

Everything that does not fit the mold. The broken, the ugly, the fleeting ideas that turned out to be nothing. The beautiful & way too cute, the weird, but not weird enough. You'll find what you're not looking for right here.

Biography
Born in Norway anno horribilis 1978. Studied art from 94-97 and began work as a graphic designer to earn a steady income. Worked as a tattoo artist for a few years, and designed several album covers for various bands, but tragedy struck and cruel fate intervened. On disability since 2015. A combination of AI generated images and digital painting (Photoshop), paired with a twisted mind & macabre fantasy, is what fuels my artistic drive. Inspiration often comes from places people don't want to go, or see, or even acknowledge exists. I look for beauty in darkness, and try to convey (and invoke) emotions and deep thought through my art.
