Upstream 1994. Gouache and pastel on paper, 43 × 62 cm. £800

When the Path Becomes Home. 2024. Oil on canvas, 68 × 49 cm. £500
Sky, sun, wind — and a sailing ship on the open sea. Journey itself becomes destination: the soul finds home in motion. Feel freedom of the sea, trust the wind. Life as collaboration with fate: not to fight, but to steer. Sea as open space, where the horizon is possibility, not limit.
Wisdom and Strength of Spring 1993.
Watercolour and pastel on paper, 62 × 43 cm. £500

The Day When Everything Goes Right. 2024. Oil on canvas, 41× 27 cm. £300

Joyful Midsummer. 1996. Gouache on paper, 45×58cm. £800
Maakalla Island. A woman and a man in Finnish national costumes sit on a stone and sing. The bright sun of Midsummer bathes the scene. This work captures the joyful heart of Finland: where tradition dances, where song fills the air and stops a person in their tracks. Where love glows in endless light. Life is a song, love is a duet, and sometimes the best catch is the music that finds you on your way.
A Sunny Day. 1996. Gouache and pastel on paper, 44×59cm. £800
This work captures summer as a sensory experience: where the air smells of earth and berries, where light is warm on the skin, where berries are sweet on the tongue. The forest breathes, light plays, and every movement is filled with the taste of life. An invitation for the viewer to feel: the warmth of the sun on the face, the scent of earth beneath the feet, the sweetness of the first berry.
Spring’s Enchantment. 2005. Gouache and pastel on paper, 43X62 cm. £400
Spring, forest, river. In the foreground, a bear gently smells a lily of the valley. Strength and delicacy — the wildest heart pauses before a fragile flower, power bows to beauty. The magic of love, given to us by nature? Even the strongest soul has room for tenderness, and life’s greatest magic lives in quiet moments.
Melody of the Finnish Forest . 2022. Oil on canvas, 56 × 69 cm. £800
Forest, water in the foreground, a moose on the far shore. Spring — nature sings its quiet song. The sky is pure blue, light dances on the leaves, the scents of fresh grasses fill the air. An invitation to pause, breathe, and hear the melody that spring hums to those who stop to listen.
24 Finnish Winter Spice. 1999. Oil on canvas 54X65 cm. £300
Snow in delicious winter colours. A spruce with a birdhouse in the foreground — a small home in the vast whiteness. Winter appears cold, yet glows with inner warmth. Warmth is not about temperature. It is about seeing the colour in snow, the home in wilderness, and the life that waits patiently beneath the surface.
