Ingi Jensson

Since launching my career in 1999, I’ve worked across most corners of illustration, always driven by a passion for comics and cartoons. My comics and cartoons have primarily been created for the Icelandic market, though much of my career has been shaped by living and working in the Netherlands and the UK.

Alongside freelance illustration, I’ve developed a strong focus on education — creating educational illustration work and running workshops in comics and cartoon making at libraries, schools, and community spaces for children and young people of all levels.

From 2014–2017 I stepped away from freelancing to pursue an MA in Future Design (Distinction) at Teesside University, after which I took on a role as Lecturer in Concept Art at the same university. In 2017, I moved to London before moving one foot to Malta for 6 years, where I served as Chief Creative Officer of a computer games company.

I’ve since returned to freelance work, continuing to combine illustration, comics, and education. Looking ahead, I remain open to part-time academic ventures while expanding my creative practice and storytelling projects.
