Staffan Göransson made a number of wonderful cover illustrations to Asimov-novels during the eighties. Göransson’s drawing style is far from the boring, clinical illustrations that come with a lot of science fiction. Enjoy:

Död robot (The Robots of Dawn)

Den okända lagen (Robots and Empire)

Preludium till Stiftelsen (Prelude to Foundation)

Stiftelsetrilogin (Foundation Trilogy)

Stiftelsen och jorden (Foundation and Earth)

Tove Jansson not only wrote really good stories about Moomin, she was also a fantastic artist:

While researching this blog post I found out that Tove Jansson also made illustrations for a Swedish edition of Bilbo:

Håkan Ackegård, Swedish illustrator of role playing games.

Also see Playelf (NSFW)

It was fun to write about illustrators that I like so I’ll do more of that!

From next monday there will be a new post under the tag Illustrators that I like every monday until I get bored.
