Season started! Our little one will be more involved with gardening this year. 🤩This reminded me of one of my artwork, which found its home lately. It's called Spring and you may read more about it on blogpost. Link on bio.

Today we got some snow in UK, which reminded me of this arwork I created long long time ago. The name of this work is Waiting For the Snow. It illustrates the moment just before it starts to snow, the stillness of the nature and calming feeling when the first snow flakes are falling.

It was absolutely beautiful day!

Little bit light in the middle of dark and rainy Winter😊
Recently I've been experimenting with Ice Lanterns. Since we really don't have minus degrees here in St Albans (UK) I've used freezer to make them. Aren't they beautiful!? 😇🙌

I used some leaves and berries, which I have picked up when I have gone for my daily #lockdown walks. In the last two pics I just used little bit blue water colour, though, I could have used a bit more to make it more blue.

These Ice Lanterns are pretty common in Finland where I'm from. Actually, there's a village near to my home, where they make tens of them every christmas and lay them near to main road. So when you pass the village in the night you may enjoy beautiful lights like icy stars. 🙌✨

Why don't we all make one and leave it near to our front door to bring some light in these dark days! Whose in?! 😍🙌

This is our Advent Calendar 2020 project with our two years old daughter. Every day we add a picture/sticker/etc. or draw something on it. It's been pleasure to see how it has developed, and also, how our little one enjoys it. 🌟

On the second picture our little one is pretending to take a picture with banks pin generator (it's her game). 😇

In the light of this depression (covid19) I took out my first Christmas decoration, #kynttelikkö, to bring me back Finland as this year haven't been able to visit my family at all.

Just wanted to come and say hello to every one here. Hope you all are keeping well and have found some happy moments in these days. I've been busy with some creative works lately. Not only painting but some home diy, which been very refreshing. I will share some details later.
It really seems that summer is here in UK. Nature blossoms and makes me feel so happy😍
In the last pic there are some daisies of which my little one picked for me for the first time 😍😭😍 #nature #naturesart #summer #beautiful #love #hanneleantikainenart #artinlondon #artoninstagram #sauna #finnishartist

Amazing Lines is the 10th and at the same time the last piece of BF series. It is originally made by my 17 months old daughter, who has lately started to show lots of interest in drawing. I love how she drew the lines so confidently and fill the pages completely. My part was just to follow the lines with B&F Pitt Pens and finally add some dots in between. This work brought me back to basics, ie. helped me thinking again mark making, negative and positive space. It was amazing to figured out the path of lines: where they started & ended, and also how I could see repetitions and beautiful undulating lines, like handwriting. I wanted to leave some lines untouched so that it reveals the working process and remains more authentic. Overall I feel this is nice way to close this series and move on to something else, of which surely will contain some colors, I have missed them a lot!

Kaatosade (=downpour). This 9th piece of BF series is inspired by recent stormy weather we have had in UK. Wind is been super strong that rain is falling from every direction. Also, due to strong winds our old wooden garden fence got broken, and at the moment it looks nearly like my illustration!

I was first thinking that I'll draw an eye. Then it started to look like a flower and finally I don't know what it is. Maybe some kind of object from space? This is the 8th doodle of the Best Friend series.

This is seventh doodle for the BF series. I wanted to see how this bird character called Unilintu (= a dream bird) works in black and white. I created it couple years back but always used colours. I think its ok, though I prefer the old ones more. Obviously b&w one is quick sketch so it's little bit tricky to compare with these coloured ones.. I think I'll do couple more for this series but then will start to work on something bigger and more time taking. I have already cut a biiiig piece of paper😊
