Participating with the story 'Jealous'


Tell me a little about yourself. How long have you been active as a comic artist and what have you been up to?

I've been drawing my whole life, and I started creating comicstrips and graphic novellas about ten years ago but went into overdrive with it 2008/2009 when I studied at the Comic Art School of Malmö.

Why did you want to participate in this project?

I wanted to try and get more "graphic" with my stories, challenge myself to draw in more detail. In retrospect I see that I´m far from the most "graphic" artist in this book, maybe because "Jealous" is an semi-autobiographical story. It seemed difficult to go into great graphic detail, when the story already was of a personal nature. However, the story behind the novella was a big reason why I wanted in on the project aswell. I wanted to let it out.

Have you drawn any erotic comics or incorporated sex in your stories before?

Yes. I once drew a sex-story for a christmas-fanzine. That story was inspired by the real thing, but not based on it like the one in Swedish Comic Sin. It was one of my most efficiently created comics. I did the whole thing in a few hours, so when I heard about the project I immediately felt that I would fit in. Sex really is a wonderful form of motivation.

What are you up to now and where are you heading? Any plans?

I'm constantly working on projects, small and big, for cash and for free. Sometimes I try to slow down but it's really difficult. I guess 'cause parts of me don't want to. But I´m gonna try to give myself atleast a short vacation from the big projects since I just recently finished "Jealous". But I guess my next personal project will be something like it. I really do love the sex, love and rock 'n roll theme, so I think I'll do something with that.
I am also studying to become a teacher and have several different jobs, among others as a croquismodel and as a waitress/hostess/singer at the Blue Boat (Blå Båten) in Malmö.
