Excuse me, do you have time to talk about Benjamin Ingrosso and his hotness? (I finally had a chance to shoot him in Finland! 🙏🏼) For some reason - his moves maybe - gives me strong Bojan vibes. And I wasn’t the only one, mind you!

Is It Okay to Draw Erotic Fanart of Real People?

I’m writing this because I sometimes get negative and aggressive anonymous messages about my art, and I feel the need to explain my perspective. The question of whether it's okay to draw erotic fanart of real people isn’t simple, and people have strong opinions on it. As someone who creates realistic fanart, I’ve thought about this a lot.

Public figures put their image out there, and for some, their sex appeal is part of their brand. This is the case with Käärijä. Drawing someone in an erotic way can be a way of appreciating their looks, vibe, or energy—especially if they already have a sensual or sexual image. If the art isn’t meant to harm or disrespect, some would argue it’s just another form of creative expression.

But even if someone is known for their sexual energy, they might not like being drawn in erotic fanart. Real people, whether they’re public figures or not, have a right to decide how they’re represented. Some might feel it’s objectifying or invasive, no matter the artist’s intentions. And if the art is realistic, it can blur the line between fantasy and reality, which might make things uncomfortable for the person being drawn.

For me, erotic art is a powerful way to express myself. It’s not just about the subject but about exploring beauty, emotion, sensuality, and even vulnerability in my work. I see it as something positive and meaningful, not harmful. While I understand that not everyone will agree with or appreciate what I create, I don’t believe in stopping something I’m passionate about just because it makes some people uncomfortable.

I also want to emphasize that my art comes from a place of deep admiration and love for Käärijä. I have a strong emotional connection to him, and my goal is never to hurt or disrespect him. Creating this art is my way of expressing that love and appreciation. It’s how I connect to his energy and celebrate everything I find inspiring about him.

Art has always been about pushing boundaries and expressing ideas, and erotic art is no different. As long as I approach it with care and respect, I will continue to create, because this is how I share what’s in my heart with the world.

And to the anonymous haters: feel free to keep screaming into the void—I’m too busy drawing to hear you. 🖕😊

On the occasion of Käärijä's birthday

As a Käärijä fan, I realised that this is the second time I've celebrated his birthday, which means that it has already been a year and a half since I fell in love with him.

In the past year and a half, his music, personality, words, videos and photos have given me a lot of energy and courage.

And thanks to him, I've been able to connect with fellow fans from all over the world on social media, which has been a lot of fun.

But at the same time, the past year and a half has also been a time when the cruelty and ugliness of humanity has been shown to me more openly than ever before.

I use various social media to provide information about him to Käärijä fans in Japan and to help Japanese people who do not yet know him to like him, but everywhere I look, not just on twitter, I find daily hate posts against Käärijä.

Some people simply don't like him.

Some still bring up ESC 2023 even though it has been a year and a half already, put him down just to praise Loreen.

Some loudly insult him out of their humanitarian convictions, saying they cancel him, and yet they are back in fandom nonchalantly.

Others say they are true fans and are criticising him for his own good, so this does not constitute slander, but they speak ill of him, his friends and his family with foul language.

Some, feeling an unnecessary obligation to educate him, impose their opinions on him, ignore his human rights and try to turn him into someone they like.

And even between fans, drama is created every day.

Even I, who am not Käärijä himself, go crazy when I see these posts day after day, but I can only imagine how Käärijä himself feels when he receives all this hate, directly or indirectly, and it brings me to tears every day.

Most people, not only those who hate him, but even those who say they are his fans, don't care what one person, Mr.Jere Pöyhönen, would think of these posts.

They all believe they are absolutely righteous and just and are desperate to have their righteousness recognised and agreed upon in the small world of social media. Most of the things you don't like about him and "his mistakes" end in one sentence: "That's not for me." or "It's not my thing." You don't have to spend tens of millions of filthy and mean words to justify yourself.

In Japan and South Korea, a very large number of young celebrities commit suicide due to social media slander, which has become a major problem.

A few years ago, I was greatly shocked when a young and talented female professional wrestler in Japan committed suicide because of social media slander.

I wonder if those who never tire of slandering Käärijä and speaking ill of him have ever once considered that he might die because of their posts.

Sometimes I’m seriously scared that he might commit suicide someday.

Just imagining how he'd feel when he received slurs and death-wish messages from thousands of people around the world, instead of legitimate criticism, is enough to break my heart too.

In a world where we can do anything at our fingertips, have we lost the ability to imagine things happening in places you don't know about or how other people are feeling?

Of course, when he is clearly doing something wrong, it's right to criticise him.

But criticism should be factual and dispassionate. Thinking badly of someone based on imagination alone and using dirty, strong language is just slander. And it's also slander to speak ill of something that the other person has no control over themselves, such as their appearance or background.

People who don't know the difference should not post their opinions on public accounts on social media where everyone can see them.

Once a post is on the web, it remains as a digital tattoo, no matter how much you delete it, just as you cannot take back the words that came out of your mouth.

You have freedom of speech and thought, and your right to criticise someone should not be violated, but remember that with freedom and rights come obligations and responsibilities.

Recently in Japan, there has been an acceleration in the legal crackdown on slander on social media.

If you feel comfortable hiding behind anonymity, you are wrong.

Remember that there is always the possibility that you could one day be sued by the person you have slandered, subjected to a disclosure request, criminally prosecuted and made a criminal.

I am fascinated by the thoughtful words Käärijä sometimes speaks at his gigs.

Love and peace, that's all we need.

I hope that the world he, his loved ones and his fandom will create in the future will be a world full of love and peace💚

OK so for the ones of us who were actually in Berlin tonight, the vibes were immaculate! Then we go on Tumblr and see weird stories from people who weren’t even there?? Like he was literally just bantering back to that girl who jokingly said he’s rich when he was promoting the merch. He did not just randomly start yapping about how poor he was. He said we had to buy merch because he brought too much to carry! Then the girl said he was rich, then he asked how she knew, if she could see his bank account and said it was 0. If he had said he was a millionaire then I’m sure someone would be mad about that too.

And this girl was 100% not trying to call him out! She was having so much fun bantering with him and now she feels terrible about people starting shit over her joke and hates that people are calling her “Queen” over this because this was absolutely not her intention. I can understand people saying the “I’m poor” routine is getting old but claiming that he was saying people should buy merch because he’s poor literally did not happen.

It seems like people are really searching hard for reasons to hate on him. And yes it’s absolutely entering hater territory when you go around twisting words and taking things out of context. If you are unhappy with how this dude from Finland is acting or whatever, feel free to leave! Like literally no one is forcing you to be here.

[tinechek]

My thoughts exactly. If everything he does or says is somehow wrong, leave. Simple as that.

Hi! I love your photos and would like to ask if it’s ok to use them as references for my art? My art tends to be somewhat erotic so I totally understand if it’s not ok. I’d give you credit of course. ❤️

Hi! I’m so sorry I haven’t answered you! I’ve been so extremely busy at work for some time now and haven’t really had time to enjoy what Tumblr has had to offer 😭 It’s great to hear that my photos bring you joy 💚 Feel free to use them anywhere - and especially for erotic art! That’s my favourite! 🔥🔥🔥😏

OMG, it was you who drew my all time favourite pic (him lying tied in bed)!!! 🙏🏼🔥🔥🔥
