LINE DRAWINGS

Linedrawings

Line drawings form the foundation of all my illustrations. Sometimes I enhance them with color, additional pen details, or more black, but the core is always the line. Would you like to have a line drawing made? On this page, you’ll find a small and diverse selection of the line drawings I’ve created. These line illustrations work well for magazines, books, packaging, or even a beautiful line drawing of yourself, your family, your newborn, or your pet. I would be happy to work with you as an illustrator.
