Name:
TheSwedish Mystery

Date of Birth:
13th of September

Current Residence:
Copenhagen (even though I am Swedish)

Favorite TV Shows?
Besides "Firefly" I enjoy "Deadwood" (awesome western!), "Misfits" (hilarious), "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" (RIP Andy Whitfield), "Arrested Development" (underrated) and finally "Matador" (Danish masterpiece).  I used to love "Criminal Minds" as well but last season was so bad I quit watching the show.

Who is your favorite Firefly couple?
Wash and Zoe - non-dysfuntional, opposites-attract-kind-of-relationship without being boring.

Which is your favorite Firefly pairing?
I am a sucker for fem slash when it's done good and in character, so I find Inara/Kaylee and Zoe/Inara (post-BDM) interesting.

How long have you been a Firefly fan?
I became a fan long after the series was cancelled. I discovered the series in 2005 I think.

What inspires you to draw?
The need to become better at drawing and all the possibilities out there - it can be an idea or a new technique that I need to learn. I look for that wonderful focus/flow that you can have when you in the middle of drawing something - it's the closest thing to happiness that I know of.

What advice do you have for those other artists out there?
Never be afraid to have artistic visions, goals and projects or invest time in them. Seek out references and inspiration and at the same time try to not compare yourself to other artists too much. And most of all - have a lot of fun while dong it
