Chopping wood

 It has been a bit quiet here, but that's because I moved to a big old school building in the countryside and most of my time goes to all kinds of chores involving the house; burying big birds that fly through the windows, building a composter, setting traps for mice, cleaning up the yard etc. and of course chopping some wood with our trusted axe , Erkki.

On a rare occasion I have some time to draw something, like these illustrations for Hopperi magazine (RAY), for an article about addictions.

Work In Progress

Since everything new I have started to draw in a couple of days seems to be total crap, I picked up an old one from The Great Pile of Unfinished Drawings and finished this pencil sketch.
 

A New Collage

"The Beginning"

Tattoo design

A friend of mine wanted a tattoo of a tree and a rainbow on her back, so I drew a tattoo design for her. I eagerly wait what the tattoo artist can make out of this.

Heartwood

 "Sydänpuu" ( Heartwood)  - A collage / environmental art for Jättömaa festival 2013.

Rest of the collages I did for my solo exhibition are now on my website, go and take a look.
Here is just a couple of them:

(A wooden box with a soul) 



 

"Sillä minä rakastan liian paljon"
(Because I love too much) 

"Sinä olit se, jota minä olin etsinyt"
(You were the one I had been looking for) 


 

"Olen väsynyt, väsynyt omaan väsymykseenikin"
(I'm tired, tired of my own tiredness"
