Illustrations for Det Ville Norge (Wild Norway), a book about Norwegian wildlife
The book is in the style of the olden day´s explorers. A wonderful book for the whole family. Nature in Norway is very special. No country has an animal and plant life like the Nordics. Few species live there, compared to rainforests, tropical coral reefs and African savannahs. But many of the animals and plants are among the world's toughest, fastest, smartest and most enduring. They withstand cold, heat, rain and snow. They manage with little food and are good at hiding. Join on a journey from the highest mountain peaks and the wet marshes to the deepest sea and down below the streets of the cities. Get to know both rare and common animals, plants and fungi better.
Shown here are twelve illustrations showing animal and plant life of the different biotopes found in Norwegian nature. The illustrations are made in Copic Marker and colored pencil, and are 30 x 42 cm. Some of the originals are still available for sale, so just contact me if you are interested.
