Þórir Karl Bragason Celin is an illustrator, artist and graphic designer from Iceland who has been drawing for as long as he can remember. The youngest of four in a creative family, he grew up watching his mother and older siblings draw, taking in everything they shared and slowly shaping it into a style of his own. Above all, he creates for himself. He doesn't set out to make work about a particular feeling, even though there is usually one underneath it. For Þórir the process comes first and the result is the surprise, and he's happy to describe himself as a simple artist in a way: he just likes to draw.
That plain love of the work has carried him through nearly three decades across games, branding, software and print. He has designed graphics and interfaces for computer and mobile games at studios including Gogogic and Directive Games, helped build brands like Magic Heroes from the ground up, and spent years as a designer for LazyTown. Like many artists in Iceland, he keeps several things going at once, which is how, as he puts it, most people there earn the freedom to keep creating without giving up their own style. Sometimes a project begins as a napkin sketch and ends up as a whole shop. More recently he has started teaching, passing on animation, drawing and creative thinking to teenagers so the next generation has the basics to find their way in the world ahead.
