The Forest of the Lovers
(Inspired by the fact that apart from one person, everyone I hang around the most, be it family or friends, is either married or engaged, and it gets to me when I'm feeling down.)

I've recently been obsessing over Regis again, so you get to see some Regis art.

Taiken arvovalinta juhlistaa tekoäly"taiteilijaa" oikean taiteen ja luovuuden sijasta. Kulttuurin tukia leikataan, mutta tällaiseen kyllä löytyy rahaa. Generoijan dian mielipiteet eivät ole mitenkään yllättäviä, mutta Taiken tällaiselle roskalle antama näkyvyys on häpeällistä.

Oh, btw. Here's my book account. I write about some books I read, and make some recommendations. Mostly in Finnish, but occationally in English as well. If you're into books, I'd love to chat about books on that account. :^)

Oh, and btw, here are the main characters of the comic I'm working on (slowly), and trying to get funding for.
I was trying to draw better pictures of them, but I ended up doing armor and sword research, so here's an older picture. 🥲
