A Little Bit About Me

Hi, I’m Marit, nice to meet you!
I’ve worked as a freelance illustrator since 2014. My main focus is on picture books for young readers; fairytales, fables and spectacular adventures! I love the challenge of meeting a brief, helping my clients with the concept, visual tone and appropriate illustrations to realise their projects.
In addition to children’s illustration I design surface patterns, prints and artwork for products and branding. I sell and license prints through Patternbank and license my designs through Society6, Spoonflower and WeaveUp.

Nowadays I paint mainly digitally, but I have many years of experience using traditional media which is helpful when it comes to adding depth and texture to my work.
