Crowdfunding for ArtMart has started! Art Mart is an up-and-coming physical retail space in Tampere, Finland, where artists can rent space to sell their products - the team is currently looking for funding to offset the initial costs of setting up a physical store! mesenaatti.me/4188/_/

Grey Tempest It's alreasy spring over here but the shadow of winter lingers. I got the idea for this piece a while ago when it was still dark and cold which is very Kyurem coded. I always found the concept of Kyurem rather lonely so I thought of a bleak winter scenery and an approaching storm.

Tampere Kuplii this weekend! You can find me in the vendor hall at table 66 the whole weekend. Note that the vendor hall and artist alley are in different buildings this year but the vendor hall is also full of small local artists, not just bigger retailers!

POKEKAMI A painting I made to celebrate 15 years of working in this style! I wanted to break away from the more scroll type paintings for a bit and experiment with something different. Fun fact! Arceus' halo is made with gold leaf from Kanazawa!

In Finnish folklore wolf is mostly feared and loathed. It is a powerful and resperced beast loyal to its pack but also travels its own path. The wolf may give guidance to those who want to stay true to themselves despite what others think. It may also offer aid in choosing who to let in your pack.

The swan was one of the most sacred animals to ancient Finns. It was believed to be able to travel between the realms and carry messages over to the underworld - and return. The swan is also monogamous bird and it can be seen as a totem of loyalty and peace.

The snakes were seen as lowest of the low, creatures of the earth and the evil that was seeped into it. On the flipside they were also believed to be able to repel malice and possess healing capabilities. The snake symbolises primal strength and vitality.

Often seen as the messenger of evil and bringer of ill omens, the raven is closely associated with magic and the spirit realm. It can also act as a guide through various sorrows. The raven is a powerful bird with the capability to carry one's miseries and help find clarity amidst chaos.

Creatures that dwell underwater were believed to be able to travel between the worlds of the living and the dead. The pike was the most magical fish and was important to shamans who wanted to reach the underworld. The pike can grant strength to those who need to navigate through darkness.

As a creature of the night the owl is often associated with the realm of the spirits and magic. Witches may draw power for them to be able to navigate obscured paths and see that which is hidden from most. The owl can symbolize wisdom and insight.
