Nice to meet you
Hi, I'm Linn Wold, an artist from Norway. My journey as an artist started in 2013 and is still going strong today.
I am originally a graphic designer, that is the training I have followed for the longest time. However, I was always into drawing and other creative activities. After working as a freelance designer for a while, I discovered that being my own boss suits me well.
Instagram became the platform where I could promote my creations and it worked great! It's great to make what I want and be able to sell it.
What inspires you most when you create a design?
Oh, it could be so many things! I'm a fan of Pinterest and Instagram as a source of inspiration. I can scroll on it for hours. I don't look so much at other artists and what they do, but mainly look at images of fashion, animals and nature to extract elements from them. It really is my passion!
How would you describe your style, what message are you trying to convey with your art?
My style is very natural, right? I like to add elements that make it clear that these are drawings. I often get the comment that my work resembles photography, but upon closer inspection it turns out that this is not the case. Conveying a clear message is a bit difficult because my art is very much in the spectrum of popular art. It should be pleasant to look at, give the viewer a good feeling and perhaps allow them to discover details that were not clear at first glance. I am more of a 'peaceful' artist than one who likes to provoke.
