Santa Clauses

Hey guys,

Earlier this year I was commissioned to draw the Icelandic santa clauses (or Yule Lads as they are sometimes known as) for the Dyslexic Association of Iceland. There are 13 santa clauses and each have their own name and personality so it was a fun project. Here are the final illustrations:

Stekkjastaur / Sheep-Cote Clod

Giljagaur / Gully Gawk

Stúfur / Stubby

Þvörusleikir / Spoon Licker

Pottaskefill / Pot-Scraper 

Askasleikir / Bowl-Licker

Hurðaskellir / Door-Slammer

Skyrgámur / Skyr-Gobbler

Bjúgnakrækir / Sausage-Swiper

Gluggagæjir / Window-Peeper

Gáttaþefur / Doorway-Sniffer

Ketkrókur / Meat-Hook

Kertasníkir / Candle-Stealer
