Elisabeth Blackadderin (s. 1931) etsauksessa on Fred. Hän on aika tukeva mustavalkoinen laiskimus, jonka pehmeän turkin melkein jokaisen karvankin Blackadder on herkästi vetänyt. Taivas on tyylikkään violetti.
************
Elisabeth Blackadder's (b. 1931) etching is depicting Fred.He is quite a stout black and white sluggard. Ans Blackadder has gently drawn almost every single hair of his soft fur. The sky is stylishly purple.

PISPALA-TALO: 2 / PISPALA HOUSE: 2
Toinen linoleikkaus Pispala-taloista on kadunvarsi Pispankadulla. Talot ovat kiinni tpoisissan, mutta jokainen on erilainen.
*********
The second linocut of Pispala houses is from the street Pispankatu. The houses are side by side, but every house is unique, different from the neighburing house.

KRISTIINA UUSITALO - NÄYTTELY / EXHIBITION
Galleria Himmelblaun hienot näyttelyt jatkuvat. Nyt gallerian ja myös ison tehdashallin yläkerrassa täyttävät Kristiina Uusitalon (s. 1959) taideteokset. Sekatekniikalla (öljy, pigmentti, alkydi, vaha) tehdyt valtavat makean väriset työt saavat haukkomaan henkeä. Grafiikka (akvatinta ja myös mukana heliogravyyria) on mustavalkoista tai herkullisen sinivihreää. Kuvissa on selvästi läsnä vesi, heijastukset veden pinnassa, valo, aurinko, rannat ja rannalle ajelehtineet roskat.
**************
Fine exhibition in Gallery Himmelblau are continuing. Now The gallery and also upstairs old factory hall are filled by Kristiina Uusitalo's (b. 1959) art works. The huge, sweet-coloured mixed media works (oil, pigment, alkyd, wax) make you grasp your breath. The graphics (aquatint and also heliography in some works) is black and white or deliciously aquamarine. The water, reflections on the surface of the water, light, sun, beaches, and debris floating on the beach are clearly visible in the pictures.

Kissakortti:190 / Cat Card: 190
Sari Airolan (s. 1967) kortin eläimet ovat kuvitusta satukirjaan "L niin kuin Leopardi". Kissa on valkoinen, eikä leopardi pilkkuineen ole mikään peto. Molemmilla on suuret mietiskelevät silmät ja hauskat karvat, melkein kuin kaktuksella.
************
The animals in Sari Airola's card are illustration for a story book "L Is For Leopard". The cat is white and leopard with its spots is no way a beast. Both of them have large, contemplative eyes and funny hair, a bit like a cactus.

PISPALA-TALO: 1 / PISPALA HOUSE: 1
Aloitin uuden sarjan pieniä linoleikkauksia (A6) Pispalan taloista. Ensimmäinen on Uittotunnelin talo, jonka ehkä voisi tästä kuvasta tunnistaakin.
***************
I started a new series of small linocuts (A6) of houses in Pispala. The first one is Floating Tunnel House (uittotunnelin talo), which is perhaps even recognizable from this picture.

ANNE HAKALA -NÄYTTELY / EXHIBITION
Anne Hakalan (s. 1958) puupiirrokset tai kollaasit galleria Saskiassa olivat kauniita, seesteisiä ja tekniikka oli kiehtova. Hakala yhdistää töissään useita puupiirroksia tai puupiirroksen palasia tussimaalaukseen tai akryyliväreihin. Usein taulun pohja näytti maalaukselta, jonka päälle oli liimattu ohuita liuskoja tai palasia puupiirroksista. Päälle oli vielä saatettu maalata vaikkapa kultaväriä tai vedostaa sudenkorento. Mitään grafiikan sarjoja nämä eivät ole. Aiheina oli luonnosta vaikutteita saaneita tunnelmia, värejä, muotoja ja yksityiskohtia. Vesi ja kukkaset - ikuiset elämän kulumisen symbolit! Jotkut työt tuntuivat melkein kankaanpainannalta.
*************
Anne Hakala's (s. 1958) woodcuts or collages in Gallery Saskia were beautiful, serene, and the technique was interesting. Hakala combines in her works several woodcuts or pieces of woodcut with ink or acrylics. Often the base of the art work seemed to be a painting over which there were glued thin strips or pieces of woodcut. On the top she might have painted even with some golden colour or there might be a printed dragonfly. These were not any series of graphics. The subjects were vibrations, colours, shapes and details inspired by the nature. Water and flowers - the eternal symbols of the cycle of life! These works resembled sometimes textile printing.

KOLME INNASTA - THREE INNANEN'S PAINTINGS
Art Pispala -gallerian tammikuun 2017 naivistinäyttely päättyi ja hain myymättömät työni pois. Linoleikkausteni suosio yllätti: 20 linoleikkausta löysi ostajan, samoin 240 korttia ja loput 10 kissakalenteria. Näyttelyssä oli hauska seurata kolmea Martti Innasen (1931-2014) naivistista maalausta. Aiheet näissä vaihtelivat kylätappelusta juhlijoihin, mutta Innanen kierrättää samoja palasia näissä maalauksissaan:
- maassa ryömivä mies viinapulloineen
- kukkapensaaseen pissaava mies
- ruskea koira ja musta kissa samanlaisissa profiiliasennoissa
- rivi erivärisiä taloja, joissa samanlaiset kolmiomalliset kattoikkunat ja punaiset tiilipiiput
- keltaruskea santamaa ja vihreät puut tai kukkapenkit.
*************
January 2017 exhibition of Naïve art at Art Pispala Gallery ended and I took away my unsold art works. The popularity of my linocuts was a surprise: 20 linocuts found a buyer, also 240 cards and all the remaining 10 cat calendars. At the exhibition it was fun to watch three Martti Innanen's (1931-2014) Naïve paintings. Subjects varied from a fight in the village to some celebrants, but Innanen recycles same pieces in his paintings:
- a man crawling on the ground with his spirit bottle
- a man pissing to a flower bed
- a brown dog and black cat in similar profiles
- a row of different coloured houses with similar triangular windows and red brick chimneys
- brownish yellow sand ground and green trees or flower beds.

PEKKA HALONEN
Kolmas versio taiteilijakissa -linoleikkauksesta on "Kissa joka uneksi olevansa Pekka Halonen". Tein Halosen talvimaiseman pastelliväreillä hiukan ölyvärillä korostettuna. Aiemmat taitelijakissa ovat Akseli Gallen-Kallela ja Aleksander Rodchenko. Olisikohan seuraava Picasso.
***********
The third version of my linocut of a cat as an artist is "Cat Who Dreamed He Was Pekka Halonen". I made Halonen´s winter landscape with pastel and a bit of oil painting. The earlier artist cats are Akseli Gallen-Kallela and Aleksander Rodchenko. Might the next one be Picasso.

Kissakortti: 189 / Cat Card: 189
Englantilaisen Julian Trevelyanin (1910-1988) litografia "Emmanuel College" on tunnelmallinen, juuri tällainen rauhallinen, seestynyt ja ehkä sateinen tunnelma vallitsee Cambridgen yliopistossa. Värit ovat murretut, vihreää ja harmaata. Vanhan rakennuksen holvikaarien alla on pimeää, ja polkupyörä koreineen on jätetty portin pieleen. Aukeata nurmikkoa reunustavat vanhat kivilaatat. Ja musta kissa on lähtenyt retkelleen.
*************
English Julian Trevelayan's (1910-1988) lithograph "Emmanuel College" is atmospheric, just this kind of peaceful, serene and perhaps a little rainy mood prevails in the University of Cambridge. The colours are broken, green and gray. Its dark under the arches of the old building, and a bicycle with it's basket has been left beside the gate. The open green is bordered by old paving stones. And a black cat has left for his/hers excursion.

ALEKSANDER RODCHENKO -KISSA / CAT
Toinen versio linoleikkauksestani "Kissa joka uneksi olevansa taiteilija" on kissa, joka uneksi olevansa venäläinen Aleksander Rodchenko. Taulu on tehty osaksi tussilla ja osaksi pastellilla. Aiemmin tein samasta aiheesta version, jossa kissa uneksi olevansa Akseli Gallen-Kallela. Sarja varmaan tästä vielä jatkuu.
**************
The second version of my linocut "Cat Who Dreamed He/She Was an Artist" is a cat, who dreamed he was Russian Aleksander Rodchenko. The painting is made partly with ink and partly with pastel. Earlier I made a version of the same subject, and in that linocut the cat dreamed he was Akseli Gallen-Kallela. Surely this series will be continuing.
