Elisabeth Dunker

Fine Little Day began in 2007 as a blog by artist and photographer Elisabeth Dunker. She studied and earned a Master’s degree in Design from HDK – School of Design and Crafts in Gothenburg, Sweden. After launching the blog, it didn’t take long for snapshots of Elisabeth’s daily life to be adored by readers from all over the world.

Today, she works best from a corner of her home. Although she has been a designer for many years, she still doesn’t have a fixed routine or specific process. A walk, a visit to a flea market, or aimless scrolling on her phone – these are the moments when she gathers inspiration.

Using various techniques such as acrylics, watercolor, and chalk, she draws and paints. But one thing is certain: she rarely draws or paints on clean, unused paper. It must be something dirty, already used, like an envelope, cardboard, or a piece of fabric; otherwise, she can’t progress.

For Fine Little Day, she designs patterns and images that become prints on posters, cushion covers, stationery, textiles, and much more.
