Folk tale illustrations by Alvaro Tapia

This is great illustrations by the very talented Alvaro Tapia! I just discovered him and fell in love with his fairytale style with nordic creatures and symbols. These are from a book with swedish folktales, called “Svenska Folksagor”, re-written by Birgitta Hellsing.  I had to buy the book just to have the drawings.

Google tells me has also done the swedish covers for the books about Harry Potter!

Hi! My name is Lena and I love creative and beautiful things in life. Sometimes it inspires me to photograph and write something about it, hopefully you can enjoy it too. I have previously been freelancing as an illustrator, now I have a day job focused on communication, web development and graphic design for print and web.
