Samui

Just a few days left in Tokyo! It feels like we have been here longer than we actually have. Many things have happened and there has been so many things to see and to think about, many meetings with people. Thanks to everyone and you who came to our workshop, 楽しかった! The exhibition is still on until December 5th. There's also a book we did together with Hana. I will put it to my online shop later too. See you, mata ne! :-)

From Hana to Hanna, from Hanna to Hana

Our exhibition is open now, for those of you who are in Tokyo, hope you can visit! Also, we painted the windows at two other shops: IDÉE Shop Futako Tawagawa and Délier IDÉE at Marunouchi building.

Next Monday, 11th of November, we'll also have a workshop at IDÈE Midtown. For more information (in japanese) please see this.

Welcome, all of you, ようこそ!

This is a test to blog again :-)

We're in Tokyo for a few weeks. Preparing for an exhibition, walking around and meeting people.

Hei blog

Spring photos. It's not going to be like this in Helsinki any time soon, but I'm thinking about it of course. Thinking about hanami. We have plenty of snow and cold winds over here. But it's ok. We've been taking long walks on sunny weekend days.

Welcome!

Have a good weekend, you.

Tokyo part 2 / Jiyugaoka with Hiki

We were happy to spend an afternoon in Jiyugaoka with lovely Hiki. Walking, 

talking, nice shops and a wonderful lunch at cafe ikanika. Arigatou Hiki, 

we hope to drink some more yuzu soda with you!

If you haven't visited yet (and even if you have): Hiki's great online 
store Uguisu and her beautiful blog.

Also, My Hyssy cards are now available in Tokyo: at Galerie Doux Dimanche 
in Aoyama and in Jiyugaoka, and their webshop as well!

Kauniste shop

Kauniste has opened a shop in Helsinki, Uudenmaankatu 27! 

I made a drawing there on the window before the opening. 

Hope you can visit and meet some of the nice people of Kauniste!

Summer traveling

Been away from home for about a month. We went to Tokyo and to a summer cabin and a little bit around Finland. So, now I just start with some Tokyo shapes and colours. Film is waiting for development.

Film

In the middle of these nice summer days I got photos from last autumn, the last one is one week ago though.

Summer

Finished things (exhibitions here and here, and school). Thanks for all the visitors. Now there is some summer, work and traveling ahead. Hope you have a good one (summer or winter)!

Cleaning

Thanks for all the nice words. I'll show you later what I have been doing (thesis and other work).

We did some window cleaning last weekend. Nice when you don't have too many windows to clean.

Finished

I handed in the master's thesis and now there's only the presentation left. Now it feels good to be busy with other things, and good not to be busy at all. Let's enjoy these spring (or autumn) days.

If you don't see me around, I'm probably doing my master's thesis. Or at least I should be. See you! <3

December!

Welcome to follow my christmas calendar again! I thought I'm not going to make it this year, but thanks to J and M and S, I am. Happy December all of you!

Winter cards

I made new winter/christmas cards. "Hyssy" is the name of the new set.

Also, new "Tonttu" card is available. It's a little bit different version from last year's christmas cards.

Go and see in my webshop if you like!

I hope you're having nice autumn or spring days. Here it's very grey today, but weekend!
