Hello visitor!

This Finnish digitally painting artist is married to her Wacom tablet. It's been so for over 7 years now and she's also in the process of starting her career as a fantasy/fiction writer, as her 'Ordera' is about to launch into full production this year.

Many of her works are (dark) 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.

What she deals with is controversy, nature, duality, the hidden aspects of humanity, the violence that persists in the soul that sees injustice, and the empathic part of the heart that doesn't give up when things get hard. And in these modern times, that is more than hard to maintain.
The battle of survival is not an illusion,
it happens between the emptyness of the powers controlling us all from the inside,
and the universal understanding of pain and love for truth and freedom, which connects all life together.


Here's something that might prescribe her philosophy in life:

"I am nothing but a shooting star,
running and dancing on ripples of water,
crossing the deep seas between dreaming and space..

I've seen angels walking on graveyards of the undead,
and seen the cannons fire and burn underneath the ocean's bed,

I've jumped from the highest peaks and fought my way through most hideous storms,
saw the demonkings with their long carved horns,
but now you tell me;
I could still be wrong?

Ask yourself; have I not seen the world in all its splendor,
when all meaning remains in the eyes of the spectator?

We all have slain angels on our journey.
Those angels never gave us wings,
but we took them and learned to use them without ever asking.

And now there is blood.
And blood shall be an ocean's worth..
because angels' tears are long and cold,
and they sink deep into every heart and soul.

And those, my friend, those tears are the waters of the World.

After all what's said and done,
even there are 7777 trillion billion stars
out there, it's still the number of reasons
why I keep on running
towards the perfection of your embrace.

Wish me luck,
wish me grace,
for I left my blade long ago,
to the temples of this fallen place,

and took wing like a newborn,
finally forgetting the false mirrors
of a long lost fate. "

peace & love to you all (from my Luck Dragon as well)

...and have a great and empowering springtime 2010!
