ABOUT NILLE
Hi im Nille!I have always been a passionate illustrator that wants to make a difference in the world,a contribute to a positive change.​Since 2009 I have been focusing on art that promotes love and equality.
I am proud and honoured that my work has gotten such good feedback. ​After having two daughters together with my beautiful wife I noticed how challenging it was to find clothes and other products that represented our family. I wanted to create a community where rainbow families are included and this sparked the idea of Hug bryggen,
and our clothing brand Little rainbow family. ​I have always been a passionate illustrator that wants to make a difference in the world, a positive change, and for the last few years I have been focusing on LGBTQIA+ themes.
I am proud and honoured that I got to start this community and I hope you like it as much as I do.​If just one person can make an impact, imagine what we can do together. Hope you all have a truly lovely and gay day <3​Love Nille ​
THANK YOU ALL SUPPORTERS
Thank you for joining our little rainbow family.
You are contributing to make more humans being seen, loved, appreciated and accepted for who they are. And for that I am forever grateful. See you again soon.
Love Nille
