Growing up in Sweden, Linn was exposed to art and design from an early age, but it wasn’t until she was in her early twenties that she decided to become an artist. After a few years of flirting with both motion graphics and advertising she realized it was illustration she had passion for and left everything else to pursue that as a career.
Her colorful illustrations are often described as emotional, surreal and a little naughty. These are qualities that have brought her clients such as Samsung, Green Peace, Oilily, La Perla and Levi’s amongst many others
While Linn has lived in several different places, she finds endless inspiration in traveling to imaginary magical worlds. Rich forests and reflective oceanic pools are themes she often references as sources of creativity.

It might give some kind of self-confidence, especially these lines: “Growing up in Sweden, Linn was exposed to art and design from an early age, but it wasn’t until she was in her early twenties that she decided to become an artist.” – so now I truly believe that even after 20 you can really start doing something, and this something might be great. Thank you for this post.

Way to go! And gratulations on your feature in Computer Arts’ January issue :) I really love your work for Samsung.

Hmm, I cannot say I like all of her works. But first pictures are truly amazing :)

Very very nice!!! I saw her work on the cover of computer arts. Screen can’t really give credit to the work like print can. It gives new meaning to ‘black’.

What type of art do you call this? I love it and want to know how to refer to it in the artistic community
zatra
boooring.. so boring.
Zany
So much talent and vision ….. mindblowing !
Fabian
I really like these :D
So creative! Some of the works seem to be inspired by Picasso, or am I wrong?
Sander
Amazing color use in the darker images :).
Joefrey Mahusay
Very creative artist.
Cellbender
I most definitly like the dark ones most. They are colourfull and therefore extremely powerfull. They are just nice to watch but also go in deep details in wich I get lost when looking at them.
They are most wonderfull – superficial and in detail. Great work.
web design , almog
wow these are really powerfully !!!

Sure, those images showcased above are creative enough. But I have to say, Linn’s website rather leaves a lot to be desired, in my opinion.

this is some of the most beautiful work ive ever seen
i love it!

between the attention to detail, the beautiful simplicity of the figures and the texture (I’m big on textures) i feel that your work is very art noveau and avante garde meets high fashion* critically constructed, completely inspiring (there is a soothing chaos about your work, as awkward as that may sound, its very busy but not at all, in any means, distractful or too much)… your work is so ethereal. a very appreciative fan*

Linn’s work reminds me of a famous Japanese graphic designer – Aya Kato. Same bizarre fusion between Manga style and Art Nouveau.

White iphone 4 Conversion Kit is now the hottest iphone 4 piece that you should get!
Juno Mindoes
It’s sorry to hear that Some white iPhone 4 buyers have reported signal reduction when the phone is held in certain ways, especially in the left hand, as the antenna problem is in the bottom left corner of the phone’s side casing. Is that mean i have to wait longer to get the white iphone 4?
