the rest of the fishermen

Erla María is an Icelandic illustrator and animator currently living in Brighton, UK.

Erla was born in Paris (1984),where she learned to drink red wine and eat baguette until the age of 5.
Her acquired interest in fine wine and striped pullovers started to worry her parents so they moved her back to the cold island of her origin in the North Atlantic.
After trying to blend in with the rest of the fishermen while finishing her studies in general Design and Art, she disappered for a year. The story has it that she was somewhere hiding in Sweden, growing her own apples and raising leprechauns.
