Growing up in Iceland, I was either drawing or spending hours by the shore. My grandma, a human rights, women’s rights, and peace activist, was one of my biggest influences. She taught me to stand up for what I believe in, and weekends with her involved either peaceful protests, going to the library or beach adventures. Collecting ocean treasures and learning the names of native plants gave me a deep respect for nature and the ocean.
My professional journey as an illustrator began during a study exchange in Indonesia in 2017, where I experienced the effects of plastic pollution firsthand. I felt I couldn't just sit on my hands and do nothing, so I started sketching and sharing it online. From there my creative design and illustration services were born.
With each piece I created, I was attracting like-minded people. I realized that other people cared as deeply as I did. Now I offer my creative services to organizations, NGOs and businesses that aim to have a positive impact on the planet.
