Mansun - Wide Open Space


Elsewhere - exhibition in Jämsä from June 23rd to July 14th, 2009.
Open daily, free entrance.

After this exhibition I have a few months break from art exhibitions, hopefully I'm able to finish my print website before the next exhibitions hit. I'm a bit late with my work projects at this time but I just have to put some extra effort... After I've returned from Medieval Festival from Turku where I'll be going for the end of the week...

This Mortal Coil - Song To The Siren

Cardinal - Dream Figure


Some time ago I got a little order for unique coloring pictures and finally I got the set ready to be sent to orderer. I'm hoping to get some more coloring images to be sold in Art Museum Bazaar. These images are drawn to a 200g acid free Fabriano drawing paper with water proof archival pigment ink Picma Micron 08 marker and each image is unique with signature. I've planned my colouring tip site for ages now... Maybe it's finally the time to realize some ideas. Soon...

Fleet Foxes - He Doesn't Know Why


www.taitoshop.fi/en
Just went online: Taito-Shop site also in English (selected content...) with a christmassy layout.

And short advertisement is always a good thing: At December 13-14 there will be an "art bazaar" at the Art Museum of Jyväskylä where I'll sell (or try to) my prints and possibly some colour/dyeing related stuff. I have prints ok, but this dye thing (I had planned to make some dye example kits) is still unsure since I've been with flu for some weeks already and not very vital at the moment...

Walkmen - The Rat



Three membered (Soile, Ilkka and I) Live Herring work group was nominated as regional artist of film and media-art by the Central Finland Art Council. We start our project from the beginning of year 2009. After two years work there is still a possibility to have three more years if we do our job well... Our Very Official (!?) portrait is from “Wish You Were There?” installation of Tomi Knuutila which is part of the Live Herring ‘08 exhibition.

More about Live Herring and the exhibition going on right now (until November 23rd) from www.liveherring.org

The National - Fake Empire

Documenting work days, project continues:

(~10am) Started the day with answering some emails with full coffee cup on my side. The exhibition place for next June is now reserved for Timppa and me - this was truly good news since we were already thinking that the place wasn't available anymore. The meetings for tomorrow confirmed. Sent some Project X ideas to be read before the meeting. Requesting about one missing url for one net exhibition (of which people are starting to be mad to me even though its not my project at all... Grrrr.)

Some photo searching and photoediting for Swedish Taito Shop site (to be open soon).

Some wlan modem configuration... (ARGH!)

Received a letter with intranet passwords from school. Wrote some stuff for school.
Started making demos of the Craft Museum one page shop layout but couldn't get too far when I had to leave.

Went to computer shop to ask about the missing bioprotection of a new laptop / notebook. (Where I met one friend from a looooong time ago - who actually doesn't live that far from here. Promised to send him Facebook inv. but this day it just didn't happen...)

(~1pm) At about one met with A in café. Discussed about some personal stuff + some design/art related possible projects (for the next year).

(~2pm) because of cancelled meeting ended up to the Central Finland Arts Council to have more coffee and to read some encyclopedia. Wrote down some ideas for following meeting and some ideas for the art project next summer.

(~4.30pm) Project X meeting in Sohwi - where I also had my meal.

(~5.30pm) Live Herring project meeting with only some things to talk about.

(~7pm) Home, downloading some press images for a couple of projects. Sending my comments of the flyer of Live Herring / Arctic & Fabulous / Jyväskylä Art Museum / Jyväskylä light event. Forwarded dates for Art Fair in Helsinki.

(~8pm) Some small updates for Swedish Taito Shop demo. Also some product updates for Finnish TaitoShop.

(~9pm) Setting up the wlan for new laptop / notebook. (Hallelujah, it's now working. So proud of myself.) Continued a bit with Craft Museum shop layout but still didn't finish. Thank God for coffee.

(~11pm) Working with if you just project.

(~1.30am) Small updates to Värjärikilta site. Sending blog invitation to one dyers' guild member.

(~1.50am) Updating Savi-M site.

(~2.30am) Still some adjustments with if you just project.

(~3am) Writing this. Very tired. Head filled with stuff.
