About

Erica Akerlund comes from a coastal town in mid Finland and has via years in London, found her place in a remote corner of Suffolk, UK.

 

Starting off as an illustrator she landed a prestigious advertising campaign that opened the door to a two decade long career in designing and directing commercials.

 

With the progression of life and family, things needed to change and she eventually started working on her own art projects. Although a forever fan of animation, making tangible art pieces and setting her characters free, has been deeply fulfilling. ​

 

Drawing  will always be the essence of Erica but just as importantly, her world can translate into any medium, which keeps things fresh.
