Work.Life in images

Here at Work.Life, we’ve realized that looking good matters. So, for the past two years, Liz and I have been working with a talented illustrator for everything that has to do with our work-life research and writing– basically, he has made our ramblings look good. The person behind the pen is Gustaf von Arbin, a Swedish illustrator and art director.

Below are two of my personal favorites. The first is a rendition of what it can feel like to be an employee in American today. The second is Gustaf’s interpretation of me and the daily battle I carry on with myself when it comes to life choices– interpret as you see fit…

Both of the above illustrations express what this column is fundamentally about: work, life, and how in the world they mix. Gustaf is also a Gen Y:er like Liz and I, and we like to promote our generational own.

You can read an interview with Gustaf and see more of his work here.
