Art Career
Arnold moved to Sweden in 1947. He was known in some circles for his horror art, which had a very distinct style. He illustrated short stories in Swedish weekly magazines such as VeckoRevyn from the 1950s through the 1970s, and in 1967 created Matulda och Megasen, a popular animated television program.
He was a frequent guest at science fiction conventions, and in later years was involved in efforts to organize the Swedish Horror Academy.
In 1995, Arnold created an original artwork piece commissioned by the Swedish rock band Spiritual Beggars for their Another Way To Shine (1996) album. He also made the artwork for the album Kalejdoskopiska Aktiviteter (1998) by Swedish psychedelic rock band Qoph. His work has been used as cover art on several Ralph Lundsten albums, and on the 2012 self-titled release by progressive rock band Storm Corrosion.
