Tonight I have lost my mother, after a sudden finding of a fierce and advanced, already incurable illness.
I have no words. Simply the endless sadness, a knowledge that from now on, no-one will ever love me as deeply and dearly as she did.
I feel alone and lost, but try to live on for my child ❤️

Sometimes all you can do is make the world 0.0000000000001% less awful by being a good person and it feels very meaningless but it’s also the only thing that really matters

The Amber Tree, this month’s riso print

I’ve always had a love for amber fossils, so this one was a great excuse to do a bit more reading on the prehistoric insects preserved within and trees that were responsible.

I'll let this video I have saved to my hard drive speak for itself.

Keep going and don't be afraid to fail.

The realest thing ever said about working in the arts
Natural talent is nothing compared to the ability to keep making shit long after everyone else has given up

Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.

Celestial Reunion - watercolour and acryla gouache on paper
for Magic: The Gathering's "Lorwyn Eclipsed". AD: Jameela Wahlgren

An emotional reunion between two elemental gods. I was asked to lean into a stylized representation of them, and I had a lot of fun playing with the intertwining shapes.

Sad news: As of this year, Finland allows the killing of about a fifth of our grey wolf population annually, regardless of whether the particular wolves cause any harm. This on top of harm-based permits and poaching puts our endangered wolf population at risk.

I wanted to play with the visual vibration between a vivid red and ultramarine blue. It didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped - I might try again some time with different pigments. #Art #Watercolor #Mermaid
