I'm a graphic designer from Finland who teaches using computers in designing, and whose favourite areas are vector graphics and typography and painting as well digitally as with traditional methods. - All said in one sentence...
I read a lot, I smoke a lot --- I'm not anymore young, beautiful and slim;-)BIOI graduated at Helsinki University some 20 years ago as M.A. - main subjects philosophy, aesthetics and Finnish language and Finnish literature. As a philosopher;-) I couldn't have a permanent job... I have been a teacher in many places; teaching both children and adults.
I am a self-made graphic designer and computer aided designing teacher. My very best interest lies - besides the pictures - on typography, in theory and in practise. I work as a free lancer.
I have the home page of my own - but unfortunately they are all in Finnish. But the adress is not a secret: www.valt.helsinki.fi/blogs/titta
All my studying materials are there - I teach quite a lot at Helsinki University.
Personal life: I live with my big black dog, Kirppu (in English "a flea") in Helsinki.

This is a very essential issue Titta, that I hesitate to even think it through honestly. The first thing that comrs to my mind is of course the computer. But then...my eyesight, my hands...I shiver! You have made another wonderful thoughtprovking painting, I love her expression and can kind of read her mind. Wonderful colors and your unique style make this to something special!!

This is so provocative an image I can't comment, except to say how very defiant her eyes are. Whatever she has lost, its obvious it is not her pride.

Interesting ramifications to this painting -- I suppose it all comes down to whether one is externally or internally connected to their source of strength -- I suppose there are degrees of both. Excellent image and idea.

Another excellent painting from you Titta! I love the intensity of feeling & symbolism in this, great expression, she does show defiance in the face of such adversity & your choice of colour is perfect for your concept too, very well done ; )

What a deep sense is in your picture!! Wonderful Titta!! I feel same like gunsan also my first thought was the computer, but there are a lot other much more importand things. Wonderful image and excellent painting!! Vote

I was watching Stargate Atlantis last night and somewhere in the episode it was mentioned that they were only allowed to take one thing with them. Can you imagine? You don't realize how many 'things' we hang onto for our identity unless we think about walking away from them, forever. ~lost p.s. no compter? ah! (no, seriously. Bad. Many times I can't write for draw very long, analog, with my fibro...what would I do??? panic)

powerful in the expression & red... to lose a part of oneself without wanting to such as this could be heartwrenching... wonderfully done & thought provoking for sure!! :]

My friend, you somehow get better and better with each new post, it seems hugs :-D I'm most drawn to the intensely warm reds here, offset by the staring green of her eyes. Very well composed in colour and form, and the usual reflections of life add a whole new dimension to what would already be an excellent work. Splendid :-)
mysnapz
Got to agree with Jim the eyes are just magnificent in colour and the feeling of defiance, a image full of your wonderful bright vibrant colouring I so enjoy.
