New Blog

I started a new sketch blog: http://sasalainen.blogspot.com/ and archived all the entries older than June 28 2013 because of the missing images. Welcome to visit the new blog!

Dammit!

I found out that the photo servers of the blog service provider were totally destroyed and all the sketches from last 3 years are gone. Of course I have them on my laptop but I don't know if I want to start reposting them, seems like a lot of work... I am busy now with other things, I am planning to leave China in the end of this month. And I think that will be a good time for a fresh start and a new blog. I'll post the link later.

I had other bad luck too. My airconditioner started dripping water and wet many of my ink paintings. Some of the work was ruined, like this one.... Maybe it was a sign that it really is time to leave Beijing :-P

My blog provider has some problem and all the images they host have disappeared for now. Hopefully they get them back during this week. Meanwhile I will start using Flickr...

Space

The Ten Thousand Lotuses Pond

I like the feeling of the space in this ink painting. It is from a new group I just got back from mounting. I'm still thinking the names for them. My teacher suggested 'Ten-Thousand-Lotus Pond' for this one. Hmmm, maybe.
