In 2010, art director Lisa Fyfe commissioned me for a Siri Hustvedt cover to be published by Picador. The book was titled The Summer Without Men and Lisa already had an idea for the art based on a piece I had done for the New York Times column Modern Love a year prior. The art was picked up by the UK, Dutch and a Norwegian publisher named Aschehoug. Editor In Chief Gunn Reinertsen Næss at Aschehoug eventually hired me to create art for all of Siri’s books as a paperback series. Art Directed by Tine Poppe in Oslo.
