NO THANK YOU - PRINT

A standout piece from the Ines Johansson Studio collection, this illustration captures the awkward, sharp, and humorous reality of the modern dating scene. It swaps high-gloss glamour for minimalist, gritty ink lines that deliver a biting satirical punch.

The Design

• The Dialogue: Features a classic "pick-up" line met with a hilariously extreme rejection. The text reads: "Vill du hem med mig?" (Do you want to come home with me?) followed by the elaborate response: "Om aliens invaderade jorden och ditt hus var det enda säkra stället att gömma sig på hade jag hellre blivit kidnappad av aliens men tack för att du frågar" (If aliens invaded Earth and your house was the only safe place to hide, I'd rather be kidnapped by aliens, but thanks for asking).
• The Characters: Two hyper-stylized figures in stark black and white. One man looking weary and hopeful, contrasted against a woman with a "bombshell" silhouette—big hair, sharp heels, and a deadpan expression.
• The Style: A raw, hand-drawn aesthetic that uses thin, expressive lines to convey a heavy sense of social fatigue and "kaxig" (bold/sassy) attitude.
• The Setting: A minimalist bar backdrop that keeps the focus entirely on the comedic timing and the contrast between the two figures.
