Books

While resting and traveling I like to read the world famous literature from great authors, like J.R.R. Tolkien, Douglas Adams, J.K. Rowling, and many others. Relaxing with a good book is something I don’t like to miss. Browse my library and find what I have in my bookshelf.

Fiction

Taking off from the real world time to time into the world of fantasy and fiction gives me new inspiration to make my art.
