Last year, I did two illustrations for a book about growing up on Oppsal. Or more specifically, I did two illustrations for one of the chapters, which is about a model town and its wacky inhabitants. The book has now been published; it’s called Det var en gang på Oppsal (“Once Upon a Time on Oppsal”), written by Bjørn Solheim. I was at the book launch and everything.

And here are my two illustrations. The firs of Cornelius van Trask, passionate hiker and founder of the model city…

…and the second of the mysterious, tiny “Ear-Whisperer” who sneaks into people’s ears to whisper ideas.
