Wicked


So this was an illustration about colonialism, mainly European and to the South. The illustration was published in Maailman kuvalehti which is a Finnish magazine that mostly deals with subject matter outside the developed nations.

It's not that usual to see B&W illustrations in magazines anymore but I managed to sell the idea to them. What I didn't tell the client, was the actual reason I picked this particular technique – I had a fever and this was the only technique that didn't require any strength…

I was just scrolling thru old posts and this caught my eye. Very strong piece.
