Tarinoita minussa minusta minuun
Tässä on kokoelma lyriikkaa, runoja ja hämmentäviä kertomuksia vuosien varrelta. Teksti johdattelee lukijansa visuaaliseen elämykseen mielentilojen värikkäillä temmellyskentillä. Tässä antaa ajatuksille siivet ja uskaltaa myös toisinaan ampua ne alas.
Paintings
Human body and mind. Faces and phases. Mostly acrylic.

I enjoy all creative projects and love to dress up!
This combination has led me to have a few or more fashion designer moments in my life.
Reusing materials is fun and inspiring. Have a look at my sewing and knitting projects here:

I love the whole process of making music.
From writing lyrics and composing
to creating the cover art and music video.
