You can do more with a post-it than just take notes.

Tabby Cat....commission for vets. He looks very proud of himself this young man! I am lucky enough to get to draw all these wonderful animals for a vet. He provides the families with an A5 portrait print of their pet as part of his VIP club. This means I have all the original A4 drawings which i am happy to sell.

In the Finnish mythology killing of a bear was followed by a great feast in honour of the bear (peijaiset), where a substantial part of the celebrations consisted of convincing the bear's spirit that it had died accidentally and hadn't been murdered. Afterwards, the bear's skull was hung high upon a pine tree so its spirit could re-enter the heavens. The bones of the bear were then buried under the pine. Reference for this work is my old drawing of karhunkallopetäjä/bearskullpine in the Riisitunturi. Also practice sketch of bear skull and at last photo i took of pine.

Final version of my previous sketch using silver leaf to moon. Intresting technig to use but result is not so attractive than i expect ;)

I try to capture macigal mood of Monica Rathkes photo from Yellowstone

Second drawing in my Doodle Addicts sketchbook. I have other marker colors but I could probably get by with just these.

Second version of my animal hides serie. In the final work i change tree breed to more typical to squirrel in my country

First drawing of my serie of animals at their hides. Sketch and final drawing

Quick illustration for the song of the White Buffalo. ”Come join the murder Come join the black” Familiar song from TV show Sons of Anarchy too

Illustration from the song of Tuomari Nurmio a.k.a Judge Bone. Nurmio has been regarded one of the most original Finnish singer-songwriters

Inktober2018day12-Whale. I’m using inktober to explore and improve my techniques. This time I wanted to try using more crosshatching. I’m happy with the result. Also, at first I had nothing for the whale prompt but it’s rewarding when you push through the dead space and a concept or idea comes to my head that I can be excited with.

Drawing for my son’s idea and with some yin yang touch

Sketch from beautifull photo of Paulina Abako

I was fortunate enough to to take my sketchbook class to observe medical students dissect donor cadavers. These donors gave there bodies to science to further our knowledge of the human anatomy and to train our future doctors. We worked alongside the med students and anatomy fellows. It was a humbling and fascinating experience.

Nerded out at the Kennedy Space Center last summer. Here are a few of the sketches.

My Vintage blue floral pattern print was designed for fabric. Originally drawn in black & white line, the blue adds a vintage feel and reminds me of the blue and white china of yester year.

I think I’m becoming obsessed with the whole rabbit hole thing.

Little watercolor Pokémon guy I don’t remember his name but I think he’s kinda cute

I spilled a little paint on this leather scrap so I figured why not paint something on it? It’s kinda hard bringing a ‘possum to life on paper because they’re so silly and dumb in a cute sort of way, I think I managed to capture this guy’s personality alright..

A few years ago I think I drew this using a photo of a dog for reference. Then I posted it in a robot community on Reddit and some random 3D printed it!

This was an inspiration to a title I saw on a music cover, so I decided to draw it and it turned out great. Lava Reef is my favorite zone in Sonic 3 and Mania and I’m really happy that I actually got to draw it. Sonic belongs to Sega
