I am a Finnish artist and illustrator based in Helsinki. My Nordic heritage and connection to nature are reflected strongly in my art. Animals, florals and landscapes are constant themes in my work. I love all animals, but cats have a special place in my heart and in my art. In addition to the natural world, I get inspired by cities, architecture, beautiful decor and everyday items.  Stylewise I am influenced by cartoons, art nouveau and anything vintage. My work is often defined by strong graphic lines and shapes, expressive characters and vibrant colors. My signature touch is bringing a bit of whimsy and playfulness to everything I create.
