Hi! My name is Hanna Virdarson and I am an artist based in Sweden. In 2018 I graduated from Ringling College of Art and Design with a Bachelor degree in illustration.

I like spooky stories, frogs (they have such fun anatomy), plants (real and home made), interior and exterior design. When I’m not playing with my mini-monster, I spend my days dreaming up new spaces to occupy while listening to various adventures in my headphones.

I enjoy painting intimate scenes with strange and unexpected moments; playful colours and characters interacting with their inner worlds as well as the big, sweet and scary things around them.

Thank you for stopping by!
