This Finnish digitally painting artist likes to sit and draw with her Wacom tablet all the time. She has done so for over five years now and conciders herself as a professional artist and illustrator by now.Many of her works are fantasy art. She hopes to find that unique touch in every work she makes, to give something new to familiar subjects, but more so not so familiar ones.. Blazing and rich stories and heart-breaking fates and creatures are all out there waiting to be painted and told. In other words, telling a story in one frame is her key method.She also thinks that using effective lights and strong colour schemes and still growing an idea from simple feelings and giving them a Face and a stage makes the picture really rock. The main goal and highest prize is the succesful emotion it creates when looking at the piece. Maybe making you wonder about things in another perspective and even get touched by the work.Among people and mystic creatures also animals, escpecially dogs and horses are close to her heart. Dogs mirror their owners souls and through them people can discover themselves. Horses are just poetic, magnificent creatures that she can't stop admiring and studying.
