Hi!
I’m Åge Peterson, an illustrator based in Bergen, Norway. My main focus is on editorial illustration, but I also do other types of commissioned illustration, self-initiated artwork and comics. If you have a commissioned project in mind, please feel free to write me an e-mail. I have a bachelor and master degree (2006–2011) in visual communication from Bergen Academy of Art and Design (now part of KMD, University of Bergen). I’m a member of Grafill and Tegnerforbundet and have two ongoing engagements as a board member; in the Grafill scholarship committee, and as a deputy member at Kulturdirektoratet (Arts and Culture Norway) in the section concerning picture books. I also do academic work for various art schools in Norway, most recently as a master exam censor at Oslo National Academy of the Arts in the department of graphic design and illustration. I’ve received 9 illustration gold awards and 10 diplomas from the visual communication competition, Visuelt.
