About Me


I am a freelance designer and artist specialising in bookart, bookdesign and cd cover design. My clients are Smekkleysa, Vocec Thules, Sigurros, Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson and Steindor Andersen. For some time I have also worked on ideas for bas-reliefs for my fine art. I plan to go to Vietnam and finish them there in 2009 where I will have them casted. For the last 12 years I have lived in a fishing village up north of Iceland, a haven surrounded by mountains on three sides and the ocean on the forth. I saw this fishing village as an ideal place for artists to work on their ideas and founded among few others the artist inresidency house Herhusid. Musicians, writers, artists and coreographers can all apply.
