Exhibition at Broströms kafé in Uppsala, Sweden

I am very happy to have an exhibition that will open this Saturday 5th of May at www.brostromskafe.com in Uppsala- my hometown!

The illustrations I will show were done for the book "Två feta taxar i Skene och andra limerickar" by Elisa Melin, who has a great talent and imagination for rhyming.

The limerick is a five-line poem written according to a special rhyme-scheme (AABBA) and it should have a witty and humorous content. The first line must end with the name of a geographical place.

General Strike in Spain March 29th

As public dissatisfaction culminates in a general strike here in Spain on the 29th of March, maybe it is time for Prime Minister Rajoy to do what any sensible person born in the seventies would have done long ago; ask Obi Wan Kenobi for help.


"Help me, Obi Wan Kenobi. You´re my only hope".
