BIO:
Illustrator Anneli Olander, born in 1981, has been drawing since she got her first crayon in her hand at age two, in Storfors, Sweden. At age 15 she had her debute as a cartoonist in the Swedish magazine “Utsikt Mälardalen” and kept making comics during her school years until year 2000. Two years later she went for a brief period of time to a classic art-school in Stockholm. In 2004 she moved to Australia to study design and illustration at the University of Newcastle. Returning to Sweden in 2005, Anneli Olander went back to drawing comics while figuring out what to do next. She created “Maja”, an appreciated comic strip about a single-woman in midlife crisis which was published on a regular basis in the Swedish magazine “Södertälje Posten”. During the years 2000-2006 Anneli was also working different jobs, however, in January 2007, she decided to take the plunge and started her company A.Olander Illustration. After two months she had her first big client from USA. She mostly works with illustrations for magazines, apparel companies and book publishers, but is exploring the gallery world and dipping her toes in anything interesting she comes across. In 2008 she took part in the Curvy Show, showcasing "100 of the best female artists" according to Yenmag.net. She’s also had art exhibitions in USA, Belgrad, Italy and Romania. Today Anneli lives in Stockholm and works as a designer and illustrator. She still freelance and her clients are situated all over the globe.
