Art Blog/Artist: Super Queer Artsy Blog (Elias Ericson)
Today I'd like to rec a Swedish artist, Elias Ericson, who can be found at Super Queer Artsy Blog. Elias draws comic strips and has an ongoing webcomic; he also has a published comic called Åror (Oars), and a forthcoming children's book called Blompojken (The Flower Boy). But because the books are only available in Swedish, I'm going to focus on his blog.
Elias Ericson's comics are sometimes autobiographical, sometimes fantastical, and often about LGBTQ politics, particularly trans rights. There are multi-page comics here and spontaneous little two-panel sketches and a variety of things in between. A lot of his art is also about depression, which I'll let stand as a warning or a recommendation depending on where you're at.
A few specific posts:
Something angry: Elias Ericson presents: "Being queer has become a trend"
Something sad: Holding Hands
Something silly: link
A collection of little snippets (nsfw!): link
For navigating his blog, I recommend using the comics tag, but browse around more generally - there are little bits of art and sketches that won't show up in that tag, not to mention fanart for a pretty wide variety of media (including the Engelsfors books, which I see were recced here last year). You can read his webcomic, Espaced, Here. If you do happen to read Swedish, you can buy Åror Here.
