Niklas Asker is a painter, graphic novelist and illustrator. In the last couple of years Niklas has worked with everything from illustrating the advent calendar for Swedish television in 2009 to working on a graphic novel for the worlds largest book publisher, Random House Books in New York.
In 2009 Niklas first original graphic novel, Second Thoughts, was published by Top Shelf Comics. Since then the book has been translated into Italian, Dutch, Danish, Swedish and Serbian.
Niklas is continuously working with both comics and painting, letting the two complement and inspire each other.
He had his first solo show in 2009 at Silfverberg, Silfverberg & Silverberg Gallery in Malmö, Sweden. Since then he has been exhibiting regularly in Sweden and abroad.
Niklas is always searching the perfect balance between the concrete and the abstract, both in his comics, his illustration and his painting.
