I made this funny owl out of metal and wood. The body is (obviously) more detailed than the head. If you lift up the head there's a secret place inside the owl:)
Today I woke up to another sunny morning! Man I love the sunshine. Yet I feel tired right now...but I'm looking forward to the weekend! Hope you're all having a happy Friday:)
I made avocadosalad for lunch today! Mostly I've got bad luck with avocados. I try to not pick the really soft ones but then when I think I bought the perfect avocados, they are hard and dry when I cut them apart. Even if I let them ripen for a few days. Does anyone have a good advice for me?
And...pieces of something I'm doing in school. I'll show what it is tomorrow!
I have a poster by Willem Van Genk (wikipedia link in german), which is a by part of a huge painting made by him. If I remember it right, the painting was about 3m x 2m or something.. I saw it in The Art Brut museum in Lausanne and I was amazed by all the details in the painting.
I got my poster from Lisen today! It is perfect. I did not find the right place for it yet but I'm anyway moving soon, so I can't wait to hang it up in the new flat. Tack Lisen:)
..then I made this salad with a weird mixture of ingredients (potatoes, beans, broccoli and eggs with dijon dressing) very good!
Mum's carrot cake and "mjöd" which is a sweet lemonade, kind of, that we drink around 1 of May (we started a bit earlier this year). This one we bought, but homemade "mjöd" made of lemons, brown sugar, water, yeast and raisins is much better. It's similar to Mead , only sweater.
I got this "blogging with a purpose"-award from Yasu a while ago, thanks a million, I really enjoy your blog too:) Blogging will always spice up my days a little bit more!
I decided to do like Esti and give this award to all blogs I read instead of passing it on. ( so I hope you all read this!) I couldn't decide who I'd give it to otherwise.
Soon I'm moving back to Vasa! I will start to commute to my school instead, it takes about 1 hour. But I will mostly do my own projects the third and fourth year in school, so the schedule is quite free. Which is cool.
I got up, for me, real early this morning...a bit after 7 a.m. Had to force myself up, made a big cup of coffee and then I slowly started to feel awake.
Now it's time for art therapy...we got a task to make our own picture about this quote: "there's a path over all these waters leading to my feet alone" hmmmmmmmmm. Have a good day:)

This is Rasmus on-going project. Yesterday I took some pictures while he was filming and testing, it looks really cool! The masks are made out of papier maché and the faces are a video projection.
Tonight I made feta-cheese fried with lots of spices, crushed almonds and nachos (!) believe it or not. It's so good! I ate it in a restaurant in Gothenburg and got the recipe from the chef:)
I was looking through old graphic design books from early 80's that I took from my dad's office. He was going to throw them away but luckily I "saved" them! You can find great inspiration in them, lots of different typestyles among other things.
Me and my sister went to the city on Saturday, nosy about everything:) Rasmus was preparing for the gig he was going to have later on..
Rasmus playing live
Rasmus is concentrated
me and my siser having fun:) We partied all night but still could get up quite early on Sunday and go to the city again for a few hours....:D After that it was time to fly back home. I miss Gothenburg already!
Hello and welcome to my blog! I'm an artist from the west coast of Finland. I love taking pictures of everything I see and many of them end up here on my blog. It's my little visual diary which I can share with everybody. Please ask me if you want to use some of my pictures. Feel free to comment!
