s. 8.8.1989

Kankaanpää, Finland

​

I paint people and landscapes. Strangers and friends and lovers and places I've been, places that I'm sure exist somewhere. Most of all I paint myself, over and over again, hoping to get out of my mind.

​

I don't know where all these these threads are leading to, what the pulsing center of it all looks like. I just know it's bright and massive and incomprehensible and I can't stop thinking about it, my thoughts all tied up in knots.

​

In addition to painting I sometimes draw comics about my life. The blog can be found here (in Finnish only).
