My newest painting



But I believed you!

Acrylic 92x73      900€


is a painting about breaking one's words, saying one thing and doing another, not being worthy of a trust, which sometimes irritates me quite a lot...but


Life's a bitch: enjoy the ride...






My latest art exhibition
 Invitation to dance 10.-29.1.2012

in Gallery Fogga:  I was holding my solo exhibition in one gallery while four other artists were holding their joined one in another room.  I cannot imagine being able to make so many new paintings to this exhibition without a help and inspiration of Ana Turazashvili, a talented dancer working in the Bolshoi at the moment.

Last autumn I was offered a great opportunity
by the art consult of S-Gallery, specialist of art marketsPauliina Laitinen-Laiho to show my work in the heart of Helsinki in the S-Window Gallery of Sokos.




For an artist like me this was an unspeakably marvellous chance and made me happy and humble of course. The collection of paintings presented in the windows were from the latest solo exhibition of mine,



 



"Life's a bitch: enjoy the ride..."

                        26.9. -23.10.2011





This new painting I finished to the S-Gallery exhibition: The Inspiration I owe to none other than: Don Henley of the Eagles...The song of his I have loved since first time ever listening to it and as I was playing it now...well, this is what happened Lilah -about leaving things behind you, feeling the fair wind...


Lilah

Akryyli   89x116   700€  



"Oh Lilah, to sleep like a baby
To open the window and feel the fair wind
Oh Lilah, to sleep like a baby again "
-Don Henley-

My second children's book, Viksu and the unforgettable Christmas was published
on 2th Nov 2011:

An exciting story about Santa Claus, elves, goblins and Viksu of course... more new illustration here   and an interviw for a local radio station (only in Finnish)  


My goal now is  f i n a l l y  to take it easy...draw and paint whenever I like with no rush...ah, what a heavenly feeling...and as a result of this freedom I have one new painting ready, another one on the stand and the third one all planned out...


Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
Drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to take your stand
and take it easy

The Eagles



take care...and take it easy...
