Dina Norlund

My name is Dina Norlund and I am an illustrator and character designer currently based in Norway. Most of my career has been focused on design, so when I do create illustrations I apply all the problem solving and designing that I have learned as a concept artist. I'm inspired by nature, magic and kids' imagination. I often draw on stories from my own childhood memories when creating my projects and books!
