sketches for a pizza company

3x3 meters B

I did this four sundays in a row, but I guess I'll just post these two.
while the pastor in our chuch had his 15-30 min. cermon, 

I went on painting as he preached his message. 

I had to use a small ladder to reach to the top of the wooden board. 

It was pretty hot on the stage with all the spotlights and everything, 

knowing that 500 people was watching closely while I worked. 

At the end I was soaked in sweat.
I don't know If I have the guts to do a project like this again...

the wooden board was to heavy to turn around 

for just one person, so I had to take the picure like this.

I have not heard anything from the client yet, and I'm worried that this will not turn out good...

I beleve these two opposite energies set people into motion: faith and doubt

final version. "he is not here..."

version C or something

I'm not sure if this is exactly how it's gonna be, but the idea is settled and that's the main thing.

this is the sketch for a newspaperillustration.

newspaper illustration

this is for the story about Maria annointing Jesus before easter.

I made these guys finished today at work. Since I like them they're here. later on I'm supposed to animate them. I'm looking forward to that...

it's kind of funny because I had'nt planned to shoot this particulare motive, but I did, and now this turns out to be better than any of the others I had planned to take!

it's about time. there has been some days now since I've posted anything. this was actually a sketch, but as I worked along it looked good, and so I just finished it. "joy"

telephone scrible

when sitting in the phone, I always scrible. this one suddenly became a drawing.

I made this yesterday and I kinda like the expression. I hope it's not too hard to get the meaning of it.. "nutritius food"

gyldendal

this is a sketch I've got in return, but I like it anyway.

hard time...

this one has given me such a hard time. And I'am far from beeing content, but I just have to leave it for now and go on to something new. I find painter watercolor effects really challenging to work with!

newspaper illustration

this is a illustration I worked with yesterday."puzzle"

surfing the internet

I'm pleased with this skecth and I'm gonna add colors to it later if time alowes me to.
I drew this yesterday while Jarand was working on Fridas lap top sitting on the coach, but who could tell anyway.

joffen & kanille

These jolly fellows have haunted me for a decade now.
When I got this assignment I was asked to create a bear and a bunny.
At that time I was a huge fan of Bill Waterson, I still am, and so my caracters developed into Calvin and Hobbes caracters.
But the author of the figures liked them, and they soon grew very popular among kids. I thought this was just a fling and did never imagine in my wildest dreams that they would last as long as to this very day!
And now, after 10 years they constantly remind me of my "little misstake" as a young and thoughtless illustrator.

my all time high tool

If I happen to not drink coffee in within 3 hours after I wake up, I get heavy head ache. A normal workday to me is like "buckets" of this fluid, and I really do'nt wanna know how much I'm actually consuming...
But if I can't have coffee, I can't illustrate, period.
Coffee is usually altso the last drink I pour inside my body before I go to bed,
no matter what time it is.
So if you wonder why the can has this color, then you're not initiated to the secrets of drinking lots of coffee, or it could be that you're just better at cleaing up than I am.

self portrait

To all of you not familiar to the norwegian language, I have to explain a little bit more in detail how this is ment to be my self portrait.

My first name, Bjørn, means: bear, in norwegian.
My last name Boge, means: bow. (still in norwegian.)
That makes my logo, very simple though, but never the less; a riddle!

I draw the lines with filt pen, and than put on colors in painter IX.

after dinner

I'm more of a spicy kind of guy...
