ABOUT LANGUAGE

Main thing, why I write these...these letters in English, is to decrease abstraction. I love abstraction and in-betweens in my Finnish texts. Writing in English instead of Finnish is kind of method to be an outsider from my own thoughts.

ABOUT

When I started to draw regularly in autumn 2008 my goal was to get rid of that constant voice inside my head which said that there´s no point to doing this art thing, that I´m not good enough.

Now, two years later, that voice is only a tiny ehco, not a real thing.

My art is very real in many forms.

Art is not a job, it´s a gift without a package.
