This is the second time I'm painting the same drawing and this time it has that little something that I personally think is very him. He has these what I call "nano expressions" that only some people who know him can see and it's really hard to get on canvas.

It's cool to do stuff that nobody is paying for once. I can go all "splorf" in colours with virtually no consequences. ]]>

But this is also the time when bunniettes use the gusts of wind to travel. If you see inside the canopy of a large tree there might be a whole bunch of bunniettes inside jumping around for the sheer excitement and joy of it.

Maybe it's just me but just thinking about their carefree life lifts my spirits.

We have these 2 carrots sitting on our couch and they're so awesome that I decided to paint them.

The red hat is a Xmas cap that I bought for our carrots but the other one is still wearing his. It lost it's bell from the tip of the hat and now it looks more like a red sailor's cap.

The positive attitude of the carrots always gets me in a good mood and their smile is really infectious.

I have literally dozens of pictures of these carrots on my cell and they never fail to lift my spirits.

Ok this is probably the most links I've ever spammed in one description.

The image itself was mostly painted on colors 3d on the ds on my way to work. I added Furmins in ps and adjusted the colors.

I designed the shape of the mountain to be a subtle homage to our previous game Outland. (which was just nominated for best Artistic Achievment by Nordic games!!wo0Oo!)

This is a painting that my art teachers really loved and even if it's un-cool to like your own art I really like it too.

Not only because the brush strokes somehow seem to fit the forms but also because I think this really looks like my mother when she's doing a certain kind of squint in public places.

Me and my sister know that this expression means she has just spotted something that either confuses her or she has just seen something that she consider scandalous somehow and is not yet ready to share with the rest of us why that is so.

Also she LOVES pink and I remember her using that cute fake Chanel bag every day until it exploded to bits.

She's the best mom ever because when I was little she always dressed me in weird sailor suits. (ok there are other reasons too)

I'm sorry for the bad photo quality. I still suck with cameras and this is honestly the only shot that turned out okay.

Painted with oils on approximately 1meter high canvas that I prepared myself. (oh dear god how that process is hard you have no idea!)

I usually get up at 4a.m. so I can get some of the compulsory drawing and painting done before other people arrive to work and I have to focus on 15 visual things at once.

Sometimes it works well but sometimes I feel like falling asleep on my Japanese classes the homework of which I've most likely done only in the hallway where I ate my lunch o_O

So yeah life is busy!

Anyway I guess that's the reason I did this image. I can completely relate to the owl on the right for some reason. (we kinda look alike don't you think? Actually don't answer that!)
The middle one was inspired by my new pirate bag and for some reason the bat on the left reminds me of my sister because she always stays up so late.

This was supposed to be her birthday card but I'm sending a bigger print of it late for the big day because I couldn't manage to finish it in time.

The vector was done in illustrator and all the wrapping paper textures were applied in photoshop.

p.s. since you've been such a trooper to make it to the bottom of this wall 'o text then hurry over to my current journal to have a chance of winning a free print! GO GO GOOOO!

Oh yeah I'm submitting a print of this because I think this would be a perfect postcard especially during winter.

p.p.s am I the only one who thinks owls need pyjamas? ]]>

Seriously if I lived in this village I'd roll the sheep down those hills just to see them bounce around slopes...

Also I love love looovee everything with airships in them.

I usually tend to have a sketch but I use it mostly as a reference point and not as something set in stone. If some better ideas for the drawing come up during the painting process then my impulses tend to take priority over the drawn lines.

When I block in color I try to cover as big areas as possible before I can do details. To me this helps to find the color composition as fast as possible.

I tend to avoid blocking in in black and white as that usually leads to dead looking colors. Instead I use a dynamic saturation/value layer that when turned on makes the whole image black and white. Value composition is to me just as important as the color composition. Luckily both can be quickly changed on the fly.

Almost the final phase where I get into details is the most grueling one. Especially when using just the round brush all the textures need to be painted from scratch.

During painting I try to keep all the colors on a single layer as much as possible. With this style layers make a painting look too much like cut & pasted all over the place especially around the edges and gives the edges a softer look. This is just my personal preference.

The gold panels were re-painted with a small round brush to give it a more lively textured look. This took an entire day of painting just gold. If you compare it to just the airbrushed version you can see that it's a bit more interesting. Mainly this kind of detail is done because I'm thinking of how it would look in a large scale print. Also I'm probably a bit OCD but that's another story...

I leave the "fun" details for last like hair and accessory material polish.

Then comes the REALLY scary part. Flipping the canvas horizontally to see the obvious mistakes. I tend to have a pen ready or a new layer on where I doodle as quickly as possible the points of the painting that give me retina-pain for seeing them. The big changes that i made were the position of one leg forearm scaling and the warping of the round shape to be more round. Also you can't see it here but I cut an entire slice of the painting from the right to give the composition more balance.

After that was done I hid a bunny in the green wall (just sayin'!)

So remember that go with the flow-thing I mentioned in the beginning? In the final painting things added due to paint flying all over the place in the block-in phase:
- the smaller round (hell even I don't know what to call it) panel
-cord of the headphones connecting with the background
-butterfly-like pink thingies in the top right corner to break the blandness of a long wall

Also thank you for watching/reading and let me know if you want to see w.i.p. posts in the future. Also ask away if there's something that I left out.

The end result can be seen here--> [link] ]]>

Also I'm totally in love with these jeans I remember that I started dreaming of jeans with bright yellow seams ever since I moved back to Finland. Have I found such awesome pair of jeans since? No. I'm giving totally free ideas here designers make it happen!

What's with all the bloody pink you ask? The whole painting is inspired by my outrageously gay phone-cover that I found few weeks ago.

Painted again with mostly one layer and default round photoshop brush at 100% opacity. I kind of like this work-flow where I can ignore all the tricks and concentrate on the size and the direction of the strokes like I do with oils. Besides I usually paint stuff that I'd like to see on my wall and brush strokes look good on big scale prints when I hang this piece of mancandy somewhere where I can see it

I wanted mountains in Outland to be all spiky and dramatic and now I felt like doing some softer shapes.

I like bunnies (unless you haven't seen my other stuff this should be common knowledge) when my bf suggested that I paint a bunny on a leaf I couldn't resist the temptation to do something silly in a dramatic neo-romantic kind of way.

I wish I could paint more on my free-time and not just at work but time is pretty limited as always. I'm truly sorry if I have forgotten to reply to some notes. Let's just agree that I'm horrible and move on.

I WILL DO OUTLAND FAN-ART SOMEDAY!

Just putting it out there in text so you can pester me to do it.

Once again painted in a single layer and in high resolution so that the brush strokes are all nice and crispy in prints.

I feel like I can almost see what the bunny in this picture is seeing. To see new horizons one must sometimes leave their comfort zone and do some heavy rowing.

This lineart is as close as I think I'm going towards "fan art". It's inspired by one game I've been playing lot of and it keeps on surprising me with it's seemingly endless depth. A real difficulty curve and meaningful customization combined with a deep storyline.

The game is called Final Fantasy XI.

I really felt XIII was an action game where constant saves and auto-battle functions made the game so passive that I felt like it didn't need me to be holding the controller to finish it. To me the whole game seemed to be like a parody of modern game design.

But not XI it feels more like a hyper version of FFIII where even normal fights can become a battle for life and death and the player is severely punished for failing. This in turn makes the game a lot more rewarding to play.

Besides I just like running around as a knee-high tarutaru blasting nukes!

art babble:

First I drew this piece digitally and it looked to me quite okay. I felt some uncertainty with my lines however in the coloring face and that's why I re-drew the whole thing with pencil. Just to see if I can really say that the digital drawing really doesn't need pencil lines. This might be a personal choice but in my view the pencil edition is far better than the digital one. I might post a comparison image in the scraps when the painting is done. (remember to bug me about it if I forget!)

I think I was trying to draw a cat back there but it turned out to look like a dog/pig-thing. I thought it was funny so I left it as it is. (note to self draw some damn cats!)

The coloring is so far looking very Russian (!?) so I might end up completely re-painting this for the 3rd time. But I wanna keep that XI feel with the colors even if this isn't "fan art".

I know I probably should be painting something more meaningful but I like bunnies and bears. I'm sorry!

But for now my Black Mage needs some leveling!

I guess some people expect me to do only certain kind of work but I hope I'll never be the kind of artist who's afraid to try and learn new things. When that day comes I hope my samurai will come to rescue me.

But there are always exceptions.

This was an album cover I did way back when I was still in art school.

I did this piece in black and white because I was requested to design something similar to "Ayla Classic" pieces.

When I stumbled upon this image today it still made me feel the dance within the image and that inspired me to post it finally online. I used dancing images as references and the whole thing was drawn in painter with a sumi-e brush.

I'm a huge fan of good dancing and I often cry like a baby when watching "so you think you can dance". (btw my favorite choreography is this [link] )

I can't dance even if my life depended on it. it sure doesn't stop me from doing this 24/7 though: ]]>

I really miss this piece and wish that I hadn't sold it so cheaply.

But the fact was that 400 euros back then was the only way for me to buy food that week so I had no choice.

I really hope the owner takes good care of it. I heard he said that he's going to have it framed which still makes me cringe when I think about it.

I'd buy it back if I had the chance and would take a better photo of it. I had a really crappy camera back then so I'm sorry for the image quality. ]]>

So after I had doodled my sketchbook messy in the car it was time to open my bag of gouache paints that I had stashed away in my bag (for those extreme emergencies). I made two of these color studies that are TINY because I'm not a quick painter and the light was changing very quickly. But damn the weather was so much more beautiful than any camera can ever capture.

If at all possible I want to be Albert Bierstadt in my next life. If it's doable then I'll promise to be a good boy and eat my vegetables and help old ladies cross the streets in this life.

I suppose godly forces must have more important matters to attend to than follow my deviantart gallery.

This is my first "serious" attempt at painting with gouache. The word serious meaning that I had no plan whatsoever what I wanted to paint and just splashed around with paint for good 40 minutes before some shapes started appearing on the A4 I was using.

Scanned in 1200dpi for high extra quality prints. I want to see this on my workspace wall.

I thought this painting was nearly done after the first hour of painting but damn did those details took a deceptively long time to do.

I'm on my summer vacation which lasts all of next week. It feels so good to do my "own" stuff for a change and I know I'll have tons of new when I get back to work.

Thank you all who responded to my latest journal. I always feel better when I know I'm not the only cranky cane-waving old geezer.

The next piece I'm working on is pretty cold too. I love this kind of "American Night" effect of blue tint that is often used in movies and has nothing to do with real world. ]]>

I've been doing a lot of sketching lately too and it'll be fun to paint something out of my drawings too when I buy a scanner.

I'm so glad I finished fable II the ending sucked and I'm glad I got rid of it. It never really had a chance to impress me because I just finished playing Persona 4 before it. I think P4 is one of my all time favourite games alongside Ocarina of Time and Longest Journey. I'm lucky if I find a game as good as Persona 4 in the next 5 years. ]]>

Painted partly with Artrage 2 that I'm only now beginning to understand. The program is very unforgiving to small mistakes and I've learned to appreciate it because of it.

By the way this is not a sketch or a speedpainting. I spent a lot of time planning the rhythm and texture of brush strokes. half of the time I was painting over the details with bigger brushes because they were unnecessary. I like details I'm just very picky where they are and in this style I have to count in the fact that the eye reads some contrasty brush strokes as details too.

I have to confess that I used to think that Art Rage is just a stupid toy that can't be used for anything. Just goes to show that I was wrong again.

The girl has very much likeness to my sister but I wasn't too concerned with the likeness as I see this as a more story driven painting than as a portrait.

I'm going to post a detail shot of the lower half so you can see my digital mess.

(it's a bit ironic that I'm writing this in horrible fever but whatever)

Sketched from a reference pic I took. I painted the whole image using a round brush with opacity at 50%. I'm going through a face when I feel so bored with all the realistic portrait paintings. And YES I do it too sometimes, I don't think I'm better than anyone by saying this. When you see pores of skin painted exactly the same way for 1000th time you kind of stop caring. Besides you can manipulate the eye in endless ways by using the brush stroke contrast and direction. This isn't a rant, there's nothing wrong with realism. I'm sure I'll do that stuff again many times. Just for now, I hope you can enjoy the brush strokes with me.

First of all I'm sorry for the bad bad photo! I'm not a photographer nor do I own any fancy equipment to become one.

Expressionistic portrait of my bf. I use the term expressionistic loosely here because I only mean the colours.

But now that it has been on my wall for nearly 6 months I've really come to like it because it gives me a peaceful feeling and I really got the likeness right.

This painting is about one meter high and it's all done with bäkers oils. They're so damn expensive that I felt like I had to use them for something so they wouldn't just sit in the corner.

I hate washing brushes afterwards because it takes so much time. That's one of the reasons why I throw away almost 10 brushes a year. (the other is that I use odd liquids that stiffen the brushes no matter what I do, but they make the colours very bright so I'm ok with that)

Oh yeah thank you all for the 100 000 pageviews! free hugs and s for everyone! ]]>

I honestly thought the whole thing would be a lot easier but at the same time I'm glad that I learned a lot from the process. I had a very clear vision what kind of gothic font the poster should have. In the end that's actually 3 fonts and 3 vector letters that form the words "Polka Dots" since none of the free fonts were exactly what I was looking for.

I wanted the dress to be fun but not funny and retro instead of old.

I love the old fashion ads where human form is there just to show the product unlike nowdays where it's all about the underweight celebrity models. ]]>

This piece is so bloody huge it always kills my computer when I open it. It's something like 15000 px high(EDIT: I HAD FORGOTTEN THAT ONE ZERO SO YOU PROBABLY WERE WONDERING WHAT'S SO HARD ABOUT 1500PX TALL IMAGE. WHAT A DIFFERENCE ONE NUBER CAN MAKE) so no wonder. Well at least the prints turned out good and sharp because of it. Even if it meant 15 minutes of wait between every brush stroke while doing the finishing touches. ]]>

Watching this makes my brain shut down in a soothing way.

Lately I tend to think I'm wandering into these paintings and no-one can follow me. It's like my silent sanctuary.

Without going to the art school I was in I don't think I would be able to know when this kind of painting is finished or not.

EDIT: thanks to the good comments I received on HArhakuva.org I noticed some flaws I fixed before going to print. It's bigger now here too I can't wait for the print it'll look great nex to the 2meter high "Rock Bridges"-print. ]]> I'm so glad the hard work with the exhibition will be over soon.

2,5hrs pscs2.

I could never ever be somewhere that high without screaming like a girl in panic non-stop because of my fear of high places. Still I keep seeing dreams with cliffs and mountains like this one. They're my favourite dreams.

I used mostly only one brush in the natural media brushes that comes with every photoshop version.

Hope you won't fall off

Edit: This piece is finished so no point asking me to kill the painty feel from it. There will be detailed and boring pieces in the future so don't worry. ]]>

But that doesn't meant that I don't like this painting, oh no. I like it very much. I remember being very angry and exhausted when painting this. I'm glad it's my final weekend before the images go to print so I can take it easier when it comes to painting. (note: this means that maybe I'll paint only 8hrs/day for a few days)

I can't believe the amounts off bullshit and prejudice I've had to endure because I'm doing my final year work digitally. I'm so glad I got a very VERY good teacher to support me through all this. I never wanted to annoy anyone with my technique. I just want to paint pretty pictures. I try not care about people who still think I just press a button and paintings come flying out of a computer. Even worse are the types who think all digital art is painted on photographs. Just what would be the point of that I ask? A painting shouldn't be compared to a photograph because a good artist can use brush strokes , colour and his imagination to create images and rhythm that can be something totally unique.

Sorry if this sounds angry but after that I guess I won't have to tell you what the title "EXIT" means.

I designed this for big print size so there are plenty of detail you can't see. I used oil pastels to create layers of contrasting colours to give more weight to important areas. I should post some details in my future journal or something.

Original resolution is 10 000x 7000+ pixels. at 500dpi.

There's actually a story behind some tree shapes but I'm running out of your reader patience, at least my parents will get it...maybe.

Why am I talking about some carpet here you ask? It was the inspiration to this image that I want to put on the wall as a huge print. The original size of this painting is 10 000x7000+ pixels at 600(!) dpi. It truly is a work of biblical proportions for my computer. I'm so glad that I didn't have to fight with crashes during the painting process.

At some point I thought about making a "logical" excuse for the size of the carrot and paint spaceship windows to it's side. But that would be mean why not let the bunnies have their one perfect day? (this was titled "The Most Beautiful Day" before posting) I wanted the bunnies to be still instead of running for the carrot because I can so clearly hear the big bunny say "Remember this day kids!" to the baby bunnies.

When I told my bf I was going to paint the yellow flowers for this image he joked about me painting all the petals individually with some 1 pixel brush. I naturally was horribly offended and told him not to mock my intelligence like I couldn't make a flower shaped brush for the whole damn thing...

...*Cut to me painting all the flower petals with one pixel brush to make them all look individual because I don't like to use too much pattern-like brushes*

I think that's enough dandelions for this year! Thank god for the music of Hideki Naganuma to help me make it through that ordeal. I love love love his music!

If you wanna see some recent bunnies of mine done with oil colours, then here's some bunnies in the night:[link] ]]>

View the actual painting here! Somewhere Behind Your Closed Eyes




I was suprised there wasn't "traditional" category for wallpapers at all. I just wanted something with texture on my screen and because I quite like it myself I thought I'd share it with you. I hope somebody else finds it useful too. It inspires those long daydreams in the middle of the workday when you get a glimpse to another place from your ordinary life.

I'm sorry for being so absent lately. I don't like painting digitally at home because my computer is so old it makes it much less fun. But as I get to paint all day at work it's relaxing to mess with oils too.

The fact that some of you have used this as a wp makes me really happy as I was a bit scared of uploading t in the first place. ]]>

Lineart can be found here: [link]

If you want to colour it note me with the name of the image and your e-mail address where I will send the hi-res version.
I'll feature all the coloured versions in my journals. I think this is a subject everyone will have a very strong interpretation of.

This is a character that I really like and I hope to use it as a main character in a comic project next year if I get a chance to do it.

All the things I like in a woman pretty red long hair and angry as hell. I loved painting her violin. It was fun to draw too. I rarely get the chance to do comic style deformations because I've been practising realistic stuff so much lately.

My art teacher was really great about this because I was very afraid that she'd be angry because it's NOT the kind of stuff I usually did at school at all. She told me I needed to find more hues of yellow so the painting wouldn't look flat and that turned out to be hard but well worth the practice.

The colours look weird huh? Well that's the way I always thought about purgatory. I'd like the comic to be a bit of an exploration on many religions without taking sides with any particular religion. ]]> For once I bother to fix things hallelujah!

second edit: now I fixed the fingers, elbow and stuff. I think the fingers look so much better now. Compared to the previous horror. I'm going to put it as a poster on my wall next to my previous submission "Time is borrowed"[link]

This piece is about the way our imagination heals us if we're able to go to that garden in our mind where nature blooms.

To me this place is art itself. Like you can see in many of my pieces I tend to create spaces where the eye can wander into. When I paint the place becomes real for me and I just paint it until I feel comfortable in that place.

The pose for this was an old unfinished piece that I fixed until I saw the potential in it. In truth I think I could have done better if I had started from scratch instead of trying to salvage something so old.

But the details really killed me, I designed her "clothes" over 6 times and painted them 3 times until I was happy with it. Before you blame her for making a dress out of those pretty fluffy bird-insect-leaf-thingies just look at how economically she used those feathers. Besides we have no way of telling that she killed the "thingies" they might have died of natural causes.

Before you ask; no I don't know what that thing behind her is. But there is a reason for it's shape.

Enjoy. ]]> I'm so happy I could explode

EDIT:

First of all I'm sorry if this shows up on your watch list again but according to FAQ it really shouldn't so please inform me if it re-appears.

I wanted to create something darker so that my gallery would have more variety. Besides it has been some time since I did the whole "red dress" thing. (more in my gallery)

I just let this picture paint itself really. I often stress the fact that people should paint more from reference but naturally the one who preaches doesn't practice his own advice. Just laugh at my stupidity and let it pass. The girl was a quick doodle on my sketchbook that I found shockingly full. (when did I draw all that crap!?)

Afterwards I drew more hands from reference of my own little palms and scanned them into the picture.

The burn marks from the chains on her wrists are maybe the most cruel thing I've ever painted in a picture. But I felt that I needed to tell the viewer that she can't get away even though she's trying to.

For some reason when I look at her I can see accurately what she's thinking. There are things she didn't get to do in life that she was trying to do. The death looks like she (well it's really female looking to me ) understands what the girl is feeling with pity. But she's only a gear in the machine of life that she can't stop. ]]>

Some might wonder how the water that's falling down there got up there. That water is pumped up there through those pipes that you can see if you watch very closely.

Some might wonder how the water that's falling down there got up there. That water is pumped up there through those pipes that you can see if you watch very closely.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy

Now I have a one-week vacation from school starting now and to celebrate this I sat down and painted this. I was listening to Rez:gamers guide to-soundtrack twice so I think it's pretty accurate to say that I painted this in 2hrs. There are still heaps of detail that I somehow managed to squeeze in everywhere. (Old bad habits die hard )

This city is sort of an ideal version of the real world. I wanted to create the sense of real calmness. To visit there requires a slow boat ride. It's another place to escape to from work and dark days. Hope you can use it as a window like I did. Thank you again.

(I'm talking about my screen you perverts! ) I was lucky enough to get both fixed for free.

Meanwhile I've been working washing dishes and playing Lost Planet online. That game has so many holy-crap-moments I wanted to paint something smoking and snowy like the game itself. I know Lost Planet had a bit mixed reviews but it's just perfect for me because I like big explosions so much it's scary. I mean what's the point of shooting a gun if you can't even make anything explode? The best way to vent out some steam I say.

Ok I'm sure I'm writing all kind of stupid things here. I'm feeling hyper because I got the screen today and I've been painting this since it arrived.

I'm sure this will make a great 360 dashboard bg for me. ]]> My computer blew up and I had it fixed but then my big 30 inches of love stopped working too. (I'm talking about my screen you perverts! ) I was lucky enough to get both fixed for free.

As you might or might not know I love bunnies. I painted this knowing that it's nothing special or ground breaking, just something I like doing.

To me this feels like a strange feeling of danger and protection at the same time. When you're a little bunny in the dark you'd like someone to hold your hand too. ]]>

It was funny how the teacher said that they all look like me. I was like WTF!? but apparently everybody else seems to think that too. I don't mind it's just weird that I didn't think of painting myself at all when doing this and I don't think I still see resemblance save for the hair that I can admit looks like mine. I still need to practice my range of blue hues and stop thinking that bright blue is "sooo pretty". ]]>
