Causality

They're correlated, I can tell you that much.

This is fine?

Slash and burn, and burn, and burn, and burn..

Masters Of Longsword 2019

The MoL 2019, organized by Örebro HEMA was fantastic.

HDD rescue

I found some old sketches on an ancient HDD that I managed to plug in to my laptop via an USB adapter :)


When the next ice-age comes we'll still need public transport, right?

Before quadcopters were a thing I imagined they'd just be big ducted fans with stabilizing rotors at the back.

Inspired by WW2 footage. Without the noise filter applied it just looks like a featureless sketch, with a bit random noise and it suddenly looks "photorealistic". The lesson is that if you have a poor enough camera, photorealism isn't as hard as you think.

PhD thesis cover

Late 2017, I defended my PhD thesis on Robot Vision. This was the cover I made for the thesis. It's a big-brained computer with a tiny kinect sensor on top. You can read the thesis and get a full-resolution version of the cover from diva (and the entire thesis, if you're curious).

Google+ Rescues

Well, since google+ is gone I might as well re-post some more recent work here...soon we'll be back to carving symbols on the cave walls I tell you.

CO2 compressed-gas organ guitar = orgar
Yes, I noticed I drew the keys upside down from the orgarist's perspective.

It is an electric motorboat, but the batteries are charged by wind-power so it could technically be called a sailboat. Well you could technically call it worse things than that, I suppose.

If looks could kill (small immobile things at a specific pre-set distance).

sneezing or crying?

Haven't really done much drawing and painting in 2011. Perhaps 2012 will be different? Hope you're all doing well. I've got a bit of a cold today.

Buried in robotics

This semester of studies has really taken its toll on drawing and painting. I don't think my sketchbook has ever felt this neglected, ever. On the upside, I now know a bunch of stuff I didn't know before. And wow, the year is almost over, again. December really sneaks up on you, doesn't it?

Sculpture

I made a sculpture in butter and used it to play a prank on a friend. It's a nice material to work with (if you don't get it anywhere on you). One disadvantage is that it needs to be a bit cold to work with effectively. Around 10°C seems perfect. Do it outside, but wear a hat and a scarf!

A Portrait

Dalarna is a magical place in the heart of Sweden.

Some speedpaintings.

Trypophobia is supposedly the fear of holes, or clusters of holes. Big deal right? That's what I thought too, now I'm not so sure...



This is uncle worm. Uncle worm's face used to be a drawing of someone's pony-tail. Until I saw his beak-like features there instead. I love birds.



I painted this on the day I discovered that the color picker in Photoshop can be set to use the brightness (B) as the "main" variable. I feel it works better for me than hue.





This was the view out from a café I like to go to. I made notes in my sketchbook and tried to paint it from memory later. The most interesting thing about painting this was creating a brush to render the ripples in the water without going crazy. Anders Zorn was crazy, probably.

coffee sketches

I like sitting down at a café with a sketchbook to draw sometimes. It's a great way to relax and let go of some of the thoughts and worries that pile up during the day.

Some random things


Inspired by the movie Porco Rosso, and the dreamy colors of Thomas Scholes.


Major Fatal!


If i were a fashion designer...

Alien's babysitter


This one took a bit of time and several revisions to get done but I'm happy I made that extra effort.

DRAW MY CHARACTER!!!!

(based on a drawing by Nina Edlund)

"Draw my character" is the name of a fun game that works like this:
Jack makes a sketch of a character for Jill, Jill takes the sketch and makes a finished drawing. Jill then makes a character sketch for Jane...and so on.

The following character sketches were made by members of the Apedogs forum and are posted here with permission, followed by my drawing of their characters. I had lots of fun making these and I hope you enjoy them.

Launch

Wow, my very own blog! I hope it doesn't break on the first try.

Hello world!

I'm an engineer, and also a graphic artist. This is some of the stuff I've made (in no specific order) over the past few years:
