Ink on paper.

It's not about waiting around for inspiration to strike, it's about showing up every single day -- and maybe something amazing happens that day, or maybe it doesnt...Regardless, Rise and Grind ♡

I have many forms of meditation, or at least a moment of total peace where mind is absolutely clear - and sketching is one of them!

Street Style Helsinki. Living in the Nordic levels, like Finland, requires special attitude against cold winter weather. From a distance the sight felt like a giant rectangle on two thin sticks approaching scurry towards me.

Phantasy Bird. Ball point pen on a paper plate

(HB pencil on a 125mm x 75mm post-it note) She has her own way of dealing with naughty children, but mostly, she sells balloons.

Probably one of my favorite collages. Obsessed with hands.
