The Eyes Are the Mirror of the Soul
The eyes of the girl were my main focus in this painting as I wanted to portray the innocence of a child. The way they look at the world around them when they haven’t yet learned to judge the things they see: the eyes full of wonder.

The Queen of the Jungle
Tigers remain one of my favorite animals when it comes to my art subjects. In this artwork, the main idea was to make the stripes of the tiger to be formed by the leaves growing around her.

Soulmates
“A true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.”
I wanted to see how my style and skill had improved and decided to create a new version of “Siblings”, which I had painted seven months ago.

Jacky the Turtle
Green Sunrise
This is one of the early paintings of my official artist career and I did not yet have the confidence to create something more ambitious and imaginative. If I was to re-create this painting now, I’d definitely make the tail of the peacock larger in size and more complex in detail.

A Song to the Moon (Commission)
“Blue”, “Wolf”, “Forest” and “Full moon” were the four words that the commissioner gave me. Here you see the result of them

The Tree of Thoughts
This painting represents a sleeping awareness. A person that has not yet come to realize the power behind their own thoughts.

Pegasus
My original vision for this horse was not as blue as it came out to be. I only used blue for shading, and the first color layer of the horse was very blue to start with. However, I often learn the best when I make little “mistakes” like this. They work as steps that are needed on a journey to improvement. I’m happy with the way the final painting turned out and now, I have learned to combine different colors to deepen the shadows of my paintings in a way that brings more balance to the overall color scheme.

Deer Room Service
The deer is renting apartments for the birds. Also, a very good excuse for me to paint a great amount of details to keep myself entertained.

Is Anyone Home?
The mood in this particular painting differs from all the other ones I’ve made. Usually everything I create is more or less happy and full of joy, but this one is quite gloomy. This was intentional, for I wanted this painting to raise questions in a person viewing it. That’s why even the title is a question.

Adam & Eve
I’m sure the story of Adam and Eve is familiar to all of us. I wanted to bring some extra contrast to the painting with their outer appearance: Female-male, light-dark.

Eternity Anything out of ordinary seems to greatly please my creativity and imagination. Here, the two tailed tiger sitting on a moon/planet is another representation of the balance between the two opposite energies, yin and yang. The original painting sold, but you can buy a print

The original painting is not a lot bigger than A4 but at the time I created it, it seemed like an incredible achievement to me with all the details of the owls’ feathers. This is also the first original painting that I sold as the artist of Jasu Wonder World.

The Observer
I have grown out of deep depression by learning how to observe my inner world without judging it. This painting reflects the process of learning how to listen: The owl is a silent observer, the awareness, looking at the world and seeing everything happen: the good and the bad. Still, the observer never judges what she sees.

Puffy the Tiger
I intended this painting to be a simple sketch and never thought it would be such a popular Christmas card that it later became.

Peacock
I actually wanted to have the peacock with his tail spread open, but considered it as too much work and effort. Needless to say, this is one of my early creations, painted before Jasu Wonder World Company was official. I hadn’t yet started creating my large-scale paintings and had yet to develop my patience and ambition.

Mermaid
I wanted to create a mermaid that was not too much of an “ordinary” one, for example, compared to the ones I often see in cartoons. That’s why the tentacles came into the picture.

Good Old Times
This is a portrayal of the passing of time. What has passed will never come back but remains in our memories. The past experiences have shaped the dress of the lady and as long as she lives she’ll keep on obtaining more experiences, all different from each other but all part of the same dress.

Patter necks
I generally like different graphic patterns and the spots of a giraffe felt like a perfect target for some pattern-design. This was one of the very first paintings I created after making the decision to make a living as an artist. However, if I was to re-create this painting now, I’d make the patterns way more complex.

The Flowers of Blue
Starting on this painting, I had just gotten a new roll of watercolor paper. This paper was behaving very strangely and didn’t blend the colors the way it should’ve. Very soon I found out I had been sent wrong paper and the roll was replaced. Still, I managed to finish this owl pretty much the way I wanted. It was definitely another out-of-my-comfort-zone experience and once I received the correct watercolor paper, painting on it was easier than ever.

One of the regularly appearing themes in my paintings: Two opposites coming together. I have a great fascination for the bond that the nature has created between a male and a female.

Just when I had drawn the outlines for this painting and started coloring it, I realized I wanted to get rid of the black outlines in my paintings in general. Because of this I ended up finishing this painting quite hastily.

Indian Dance
This was my first large-scale painting where I didn’t use the black outlines to help me with the coloring. The way I painted was very rough still, and I had yet to learn to create smooth and soft shades instead of sharp edges between the different shades of color.

Medusa
When I started sketching “Medusa” I only had the lady in my mind. Then, as I proceeded with the sketch she was accompanied with a cat, a crow and the spiders. This happens to me quite often though: the final idea of an artwork gets clear to me only when I’m putting it on the paper.

To me, the most important thing about this painting is the way the other fox is looking at his friend. To that simple gaze I wanted to compress all that happiness, love and gratitude that you can have for another person: how the simple presence of the other can put all your pieces together and make you happier than you ever thought you could be.
