At the end of 2012, I wanted to make some space for daily simple drawings. Because I also like to keep it real--I will also include some more complex graphic recordings.

Finland turned 100 yesterday & I created this infodoodle to showcase some cool facts about Finland. I tried to choose things that people might not know.

Reposting one of my doodles from a while back to celebrate! Starting today, on March 1, same-sex marriage became legal in Finland. Same sex couples also gained the legal right to adopt children. According to a Local Register Office's figures some 41 couples across the country are scheduled to marry this week. 👩‍❤️‍👩 👨‍❤️‍👨 💑👭 👬 👫 ❤️💛💚💙💜🖤❣️#tasaarvoinenavioliittolaki #tasaarvoinenavioliittolakiastuuvoimaantänään #Finland100 #samesexmarriage

Taking advantage of a little down time. Nettles are nefarious & nutritious. Now they are young and lovely--and at their best. Pick them & cook them up--just remember to wear gloves when handling them😊 #nettle #nettles #wildfood #foraging #organic #forage #hortoilu #villivihannes #suomi #finland

Came home & my fridge was bare except for some salmon so I popped outside & foraged some fireweed from the field outside my house. I made a tangy lemon honey vinaigrette and had a glorious meal. Try eating fireweed instead of asparagus. It is delicious & a great source of vitamin A! #fireweed #maitohorsma #maitohorsmaparsa #wildvegetable #villivihannes #hortoilu #forage #foraging #organic #wildfood #suomi #finland #madewithpaper #paper53
