Nadja Andersson
Hi there! I’m Nadja Andersson (she/her), a Swedish-speaking Finnish illustrator and visual artist based in Glasgow, Scotland. I am passionate about visual storytelling and traditional media, such as drawing, painting, and collage.
I work mainly by hand and aim to make use of the mistakes and imperfections that make a picture look handmade. This, however, does not mean that I never use digital tools: for every project, I consider it vital to understand my client’s vision and find the best suited media, colour palette and visual tone for our project.
I have a Master's degree in Communication Design and a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Art. Besides illustrating, I write articles for a Finnish children’s newspaper, draw comics, write my own stories, paint and experiment with a variety of art media. In addition to my mother tongue Swedish, I speak English and Finnish fluently. I also speak basic Norwegian, French and modern Greek, and am learning Brazilian Portuguese.
I work mainly by hand and have a great understanding of how to successfully combine different materials to compose a picture. My strengths are storytelling and coming up with new ideas, and in many projects I have been allowed to work freely around an assigned theme. I am a fast learner and enjoy doing research for projects.

"It is a pleasure to recommend Nadja Andersson as an illustrator. Nadja is able to create visually fascinating and unique images. There is always witty humour in her work that makes the viewer smile. Nadja's responsibility, precision, wealth of ideas and humour make her an ideal illustrator."
– Senja Larsen, Project Manager, Senja Opettaa Sinulle Ruotsia
"Nadja Andersson developed unique comics for children and young people with a focus on difficult feelings and questions. In ‘Ugly Duck’, Nadja Andersson managed to deal with difficult questions and emotions in a visually appealing, touching, easy to absorb way that increased the reader’s understanding of people in vulnerable situations. Nadja fearlessly tackled difficult issues we asked her to focus on, such as bullying, loneliness, racism and puberty, and did so in a way that often stirred emotions in readers. ‘Ugly Duck’ was among the content in our newspaper that led to the most response from readers. Nadja always delivered on time, and was in every way an appreciated, flexible and pleasant partner."
- Maria Saaristo, former editor-in-chief, HBL Junior

Book cover illustration / Den Brinnande Vargen
Schildts & Söderströms, Helsinki, 2015.
DuvTeatern is a free theater group for actors with developmental disabilities that has been operating in Helsinki since 1999.
In the spring of 2012, DuvTeatern launched a poetry project, in which the actors of the theater created their own poems in workshops led by poets Claes Andersson and Tua Forsström. A selection of these poems became the hit performance Den Brinnande Vargen – an afternoon with DuvTeatern. The poetry anthology Den Brinnande Vargen contains all poems of this show.
The poems deal with various themes such as identity, love and friendship, death, nature and God. Many poems also deal with creation and writing.

Illustrations / Climefish project
Climefish was an international, EU-financed marine research project. The project ran between 2016-2020 and was a collaboration between marine biology research institutions in 16 countries. Its aim was to help ensure that seafood production focuses on areas and species with potential for sustainable growth, given expected developments in climate. My role as Project Artist was to help increase interest in the project among stockholders and the public.
Illustrations were made using traditional collage and mixed media, and were used as prints, in presentation slides and leaflets, and on the project website.

Artbook V / My project
Who were the women accused of witchcraft?
Who is drawn to witchcraft today?
Illustrations, texts, project manager.
With my book V, I am addressing witchcraft through five interviews with women who hold some connections to the esoteric or occult. Their stories address healing, investigate sisterhood, and challenge sociological issues, using witchcraft as a starting point for discussion. Themes include mediumnity, witch trials, astrology and modern witchcraft rituals, but also gatekeeping within witchcraft communities. The conversations are brought to life by mixed media illustrations and creative use of paper. The project was completed in Glasgow in 2020.
Three printed books have been finalised, and the book can be ordered as commission and printed on demand.
