Our local artists group had traditional painting day in Statue Park, situated 8km south from Parikkala. This time we had a chance to try different ways of dyeing and printing fabrics.

This is small Glow worm diorama made for Vapriikki natural history museum. Materials are Luna- and sukerukun clay and PP100 plastic padding.
These Glow worm models have gloving tritium ampull inside.

My winter project was nearly 50 m2 size painting to new natural history museum in Tampere. Painting has 2 parts: Sky is painted with paints that glow in UV-light. Trees and ground are painted on plywood. If you want to get proper idea, you should visit this museum!

Paint mixing tests.

Trees show glow from sunset. Painting work had to be done with very little light.
