In real life painting has more different hues, but camera does not get them. Especially light blues are difficould for digital cameras.

I work often with several paintings simultaneously. This saves mixed paints if there is leftover from one painting, it might be possible to use it in another. This unfinished illustration presents introduced waterfowl.

Colored pencil gives scale. Mandarine Duck and Wood Duck are 3,5 cm high. Eye has then diameter of bit more than 1mm!

My goal has been to make a bit different information boards that make watchers surprised.

Here are samples of these new information boards. Layout is done by Tommi Tenhunen. This is our fifth project together!

Arctic fox

Boards have species in interaction with their surrounding habitat and species. In this Arctic Fox board the main image is Lapland bunting collecting hair. They use animal hair for insulation in their nest cups.

Suomen pöllöt, Finnish Owls

Finnish Owls board is for identification purposes. Near Owl cages there are also other boards like this Owl sense of hearing board.

Wild boar piglet will be used in information material of growth and life of Wild boars. Great grey Owl painting will have added vole in its tunnel and this painting will be used with text of Owls senses. It is hard to imagine how detailed hearing “image” they get of nature surrounding them.
