Af hjertet tak til Statens Kunstfond for igen at hjælpe mig med mit kunsteriske virke! Det er en kæmpe ære! Hold kæft, hvor er jeg bare glad! Der er blevet hoppet og danset rundt i tegnestuen indtil alle de andre blev trætte af mig.
Jeg vil forsøge at forholde mig til idéen om at man bør modtage denne ære med ophøjet ro og orden, men jeg kan ikke garantere noget.
Igen tusind tak! 😄

This is Bjørk. He`s the creator of Tall Tales of Midgard out soon from the wonderful people at sourcepointpress.
"Hilarious and beautifully illustrated. It is truly rare when a story is both entertaining and culturally accurate. Tall Tales of Midgard is steeped in a history and folklore that enriches the story it tells."

Bjørk Matias Friis is the award-nominated creator of TALL TALES OF MIDGARD. The story, which centers around the thrall Root, is a humouristic take on the viking age where the gods supposedly walked the earth and caused havoc.
Friis masterfully combines humour and historical fact to tell the story of how badly things can go, when mere mortals are tricked into meddling in the affairs of the gods.
If Loki walks among us mortals in this day and age, Friis is surely a relation and he is a revelation on the Danish comics scene.
