The illustration has done it's job well -- I'm very curious about the article! Nice work with the simplicity of the lines and clarity of the colours.

I tried searching Dagens Handel, but not knowing the title I wasn't very successful. Even if it only the text, is there a link to the article you can point to?

Thank you very much, IΒ΄m really glad you like it.

IΒ΄m afraid the article only is in the printed edition, and its also in swedish.

Take care!

Ah ok. Svenska Γ€r inte problemet, min bΓ€sta vΓ€n bor i GΓΆteborg. But finding the printed version is definitely a problem - it is a few thousand kilometres to Stockholm

This is hilarious, I love it! I didn't know that blond pretty babe is a symbol of Sweden, it's great. Mother Sweden

IΒ΄m not really sure why but she is often made a little fatter than my version of her

that's strange, I've always thought of Swedish girls as tall, slim babes with very light blond hair

I like the unity of the men with each other by wearing the same suits, but still having their individuality in their shirts

Nice.
I like the unity created by the very similar men in suits, which is nice because it is counterbalanced with the variance in their shirts.
Only thing I didn't like was the lack of any background. It just feels kind of empty. Still great though.

Thanks a lot! ItΒ΄s a bit taken out of context. In the newspaper I made it for it was over a spread with a headline over and a the text sort of framed around it.
