Olaf Hajek was born in North Germany along the frontier to Denmark, and now resides in his homeland, London and New York.
Whilst studying Graphic Design, Olaf quickly realized he did not want to
be sitting in front of a computer all day and moved into Illustration.
His formative professional years were spent in Amsterdam, where he threw
himself into the social and freelance Illustration scene, and he has
proven to be a strong asset in all senses to the Global Contemporary Art
Community.

He had taught illustration alongside the likes of Punk fashion
legend: Vivienne Westwood, and his pioneering, altruistic tendencies
have helped nurture much talent: young and old.
His elegant, figurative, colorful, textural work holds a strong sense of
character and fine art sensibility, he exhibits regularly in galleries
all over the world, and appears ubiquitously in the awards: American
Illustration, Images, Communication Arts, D&AD.
Olaf’s versatile and ever evolving work is well established in all
areas: advertising, design, publishing and editorial, with the
occasional foray into animation, and he looks set to be one of the
superstars of the genre for many years to come.
