Hei #Jyväskylä! Tulkaahan käväisemään työhuoneellani katsomassa työhuonenäyttelyäni! Samalla voi vilkaista jotain kivaa itselle tai tuliaisiksi... :) Isoille kukkaroille löytyy useiden satasten teoksia, ja pienille kukkaroille esim. kortteja ja vihkoja alkaen 2e. Saa tulla ihan vain moikkaamaankin!

Murtumaton - Unbroken

Some people say that my artworks are grey. Someone last weekend described my colour use as quiet and that's just what I think! Just like in music: I don't have the need to play my colours in full volume all the time - and specially this year I've worked with silent ambience.

Perjantaina mut nukutettiin ekan kerran ikinä. Pelotti hirveästi, mutta siinähän vain nukkui. Ja sitten heräsi tokkuraisena. Ja nukkui uudelleen. (Eikä missään vaiheessa sattunut.) Mutta nyt sitten toipilaana, ja siksi ei ole taiteilijatapaamisia näyttelyssä. Mutta työt on!

Ensi lauantaina Galleria Becker on mukana Yläkaupungin yö -tapahtumassa ja ohjelmaa löytyy reilusti myös galleriasta. Sunnuntai on varmaankin parempi päivä, jos haluaa käydä katsomassa näyttelyni rauhassa. :) Galleria Becker on auki sunnuntaina 12-16.

One of the artworks of my solo exhibition, which opened yesterday in Gallery Becker, in Jyväskylä, Finland.

Tired, but happy.

My Redbubble shop is now open! Please go buy my illustrations and my remakes of vintage colour theory illustrations...

for example this tote is my vintage-wash remake of Lichtenberg's representation of the colour graph developed by the astronomer Tobias Mayer 1775.

Yöllä nukkumaan mennessäni pieni ääni sanoi päässäni näyttelyn nimen: Kohtaamisia Kyyneltarhassa. Aamulla luonnostelin vähän julistetta, ennen kuin vein näyttelyteokset kehystämöön, ja illalla sain näyttelyn kutsukortin ja julisteen valmiiksi.

Signing new artworks to my May exhibition in Jyväskylä (Finland). Working title of the exhibition has been "Back to the Garden of Tears" - once again I've visited this imaginary garden of trees growing all kinds of tears. Or, rather this time the spirits and deities of the garden.

About twenty years ago I started to imagine a garden where all kinds of tears can grow free. This Garden of Tears became my hideaway from the real world and the source of many of my artworks, including the Tear Artisans series. This spring I've returned to my imaginary work as a gardener...

Nine years ago I made this print "the Silent Artisan of the Tears" (2016, edition of 30, sold out) as part of my theme exhibition "The Garden of Tears", the last exhibition of which was in July 2018. I've closed the gate of the garden once, but now it seems I'm getting back there...

Myrskykonsertto - sarjan viimeinen itselläni ollut vedos lähti uuteen kotiinsa... Tätä tulee ikävä...

Storm Concerto - the last print of the series in my possession got a new home... I'll miss this one.

For years I've tried several ways to save and show my natural dyed yarn samples, but I felt I hadn't found a right one - until now. I've just started stiching them onto a thick art paper - something to do while watching the evening news. This is #dermocybe #cortinarius #bloodredwebcap

Mm. Ancienne Noblesse -sarjaa (kuvassa Tatuoitu vapaaherratar) on aiemmin ollut Jyväskylän taiteilijaseuran Taidelainaamossa vain kehystettynä, mutta nyt sarjaa on myös vedoksina! Vedokset on päivitetty myös taidelainaamon verkkokauppaan!

Ooo, look at this tiny blood red webcap (cortinarius). <3 I have just five grams dried mushroom for my dye samples, but I guess it will be enough since my samples are quite small. But this mushroom is so cute that I'm not sure if I want to use it.

Toivo - Hope (2014)
the last print of the series (edition of 30) can be purchased from the Jyväskylä Artist's Society's Artotheque

I'd like to think that this is not the last sign of hope, but almost all Hope(s) has been adopted to good homes.

Getting back to normal after a month of drifting around. Sadness and sorrow doesn't go away, but making physical work kind of helps. This week's calendar already full, so adding more prints to make next week.

I needed some photos of my "Colour Rain" installation, 2021, and amongst others I found this one by photographer Nina Huisman, from below the installation. Today the installation belongs to Jyväskylä Art Museum collection, but I'm making a bigger one, consisting of 10 000 droplets...

I've browsed my old sketches and found several artworks not finished. I noticed that I tend to limit myself: stop myself repeating myself too much. But why? If a line wants to be drawn, it needs to be drawn until there's no need anymore.

All things for my mum's funeral are now taken care of. Now I only need to get myself to the chapel at Saturday morning.

I guess tomorrow, Friday, will feel long.
