Oulun Tyrmä

 Preparations for the Oulu Dungeon-pop up shop are almost done! If you reside in the northern parts of Finland, feel cordially invited to check my stuff out (very cordially). Especially these sticker-bags, quite a lot more sweat and tears went into these as might be apparent from a casual glance.

My new piece is slowly taking form, some wip pictures will come up shortly~

Thank you Desucon!

 Thank you again, Desucon! We had a great time, and our brand new magic cube also stood proudly upright through the whole of Saturday, yay!

 I've begun a new piece, I hope it gets done by Finncon, but I'll keep you lovelies posted~

The Alley of Desucon

Desucon has announced their Artists’ Alley artists! ....But they still didn’t tell anyone’s table number, I’ll inform you lovelies about that as soon as possible. This is the poster I made for their catalogue

 So, next Saturday, the 11th of June you can find me behind a table in Lahti! The Alley has moved to the Dealer’s Den, so don’t try to search for us in the old balcony where we used to be.

 I have a new piece in the works, but unfortunately seems like it will not make it to Desucon. But fear not, Finncon and its proud alley are just behind the corner and I’m sure you’ll find it there, and of course here as soon as it's finished!

Mitral & Summer Schedule

 Those ancient beings that got a hold of my comic all those years ago might recognise this darling~ They are a key player in the story of my comic, and hopefully Mitral will become familiar to many more readers in the future... When I restart that ancient comic of mine.

This was even supposed to be just a sketch, ended up spending three days with it. Sick with flu at that.

 As for my schedule for this summer, it looks magnificently busy!

• First, I'll be on the artists' alley of Desucon 11th of June, on a Saturday for once!
•  After that my prints and other products will be available in the Little Shop of Horrors of Oulu Dungeon from the 29th of June to the 8th of July! This will be the northernmost place my stuff has ever been available.
•  During that same time I will participate in the Finncon artists' alley, from the 2nd to the 3rd of July in Tampere to sell my art!
•  I've also booked a trader's table at Ropecon, from the 29th to the 31st of July! This will be my 10th consecutive Ropecon attended and I decided to celebraty by seeing how my art will please the congoers, please come and say hi~

Sketching!

 I have this beautiful one week of no lectures in between courses, which I will of course use to try and draw something worthwhile. Let's see how it goes.

I also went to see the cherry blossoms of Roihuvuori now that I have all this free time. So, so much free time

Ateneum & update

 I apologise for my silence here in the blog, trying to scrape up the last remaining courses for graduation is time consuming work, I'm afraid. Soon, things will let down a bit and I'll hopefully have time to draw & paint again... Never give up hope!

 Even if things have been rather hectic, I still sneaked out to see the Japanomania exhibition in Ateneum Art Museum the other day~ There was a place for doing water paintings, and the exhibition wasn't half bad either!

Looks like ink, yet it is not.

For alley news I can reveal that I'll be attending the artists' alleys of both Desucon and Finncon! I'll keep you posted on the details and all the new stuff I might conjure up for them~

ps. I'm also helping the arrangement of this year's Taidekuja! Please like the page if you're interested in attending, that way you'll keep yourself informed~

pps. My new works are also available in my Redbubble shop

Everyone needs a corset dragon bag, right?

The Hunger of Danil

 pencil, ink, watercolour & Painttool Sai

 A revisit to the life the tragic Lifewell Danil, whom I introduced earlier here. Here Danil has re-acquired some skill in his former forté shapechanging, but in a rather different way than before.

…And if my printer doesn’t blow up, this darling will be presented as a print at the artists alley of Popcult, Helsinki this weekend.

 Here's a close-up of Danil's lovely face, for I feel it dosn't get the attention it needs in the shrinked version.
