I've always had an eye for drawing and sketching, and have found it fun to create, everything from drawing from magazines and other things with a motif that I find challenging, to creating something of my own. At the age of 11 I got my first computer, a commandor 64, there was quite a lot of gaming, but one day I saw Koala painter at a friend's house, and I was hooked. Could sit in front of the computer and draw for hours. At school I learned to love a guy who programmed on c64 and he got some images and fonts that I made. We also learned to serve others with the same interest and hung out and shared games and programs, built demos and generally had fun.
One of the guys in the gang had bought a new computer and needed to be checked, he had upgraded to an AMIGA 500, Geez now I knew what I had to do. Emptyed the bank account and got hold of an almost brand new Amiga 500 with an extra 512kb of memory,
wow and Dpaint what a difference. I was asked by a guy if I would make a font for his new demo, sure, why not I thought. He told me that they were a group who would meet up in Trollhättan one weekend and have fun, this was my first 'CopyParty' SPECTRE & NORTHSTAR Halloween Party 1989. It was the start of a friendship with many new friends, SPECTRE became like a new family to me.
In the mid-90s I upgraded to a PC, a 486, and then a Pentium II, and Photoshop 3.14 but continued to make pictures on the Amiga. PixelArt is nice to sit with, but I still draw a lot by hand. The interest in websites came when I connected to the internet, and I learned to build websites. and that's the way it is. I have built 1000+ websites with color and shine and continue to do so today. I have changed as a person, but sometimes i still take out a pen and paper to draw and paint.
