Ihmettelyä

Winter Wonderland

Enjoying white landscape with family and friends,

hope you are having Happy Holidays as well!

Siena, Umbra, Okra & Co

Addicted to nets - as an expression of a fragile connection between people, nature and mind.
At the monent I am also fascinated about the earthy colors.

Olen verkon ja pitsin lumoissa.
Ajattelen ihmisten välistä yhteyttä, ajattelen ihmisen ja luonnon yhteyttä, ajattelen mielen ja ajatusten haurasta, helposti murenevaa rakennetta.
Ja maavärit, ihanaa sekoittaa itse pigmenteistä ja mediumista,  mmm...

Siellä, täällä

Tampere, Vehmainen, kaupungin niitty

Turku, Qwenselin talon sisäpiha

Kuusisto, taidekartano ja linnanrauniot, Kaarina

July was exceptionally warm in Finland.
I was happy to be able to spend most of the time by the sea at Rauma.
I also visited Turku and surroundings.

Lähempää tarkasteltuna

 

Having a closer look

Upside down

Patrice choosed a fascinating theme for this week´s DC ( drawing challenge ): Upside down.

Art is often about things that upset, are twisted  - about things that are upside down.

At first Georg Baselitz came to my mind with his bold and strong paintings.

Then I remembered a work called State of Readiness by a sculptor Heli Ryhänen. She is a wonderful artist and  great teacher:)

I have been taking photos of reflections which turn the view upside down.
And I found my "self portrait" ( oil on  metal plate, 2013 ) lying on a shelf - upside down:)

White

Static

Naturally

Nature in matchboxes:

wasp nest
