Currently I publish my recent works on my own personal site, or in my DeviantArt gallery page
For more information about my projects and works, please read my LiveJournal.

 

An illustration of Oberon and Titania from Shakespeare's Midsummer Nights Dream.
I've used this work for bookmarks I've printed myself for presents.

I worship you, and the ground you walk on, my goddess. This is one of the most beautiful pictures of your gallery, and this has some magical and odd effect on me... I feel nostalgic and awed whenever I see it. It reminds me of my crazy obsession in full moon...

I'm really flattered by the way you seem to really love this picture...
...You really do love it, do you?"

I don't really know what they're doing with their hands...but it looks magical. ^^ Favorite part is the pretty border.

I just love drawing those jugend inspired borders on picture's... It seems to me atleast that then they look more whole, more like an indipendent work.
I just love the way it makes picture's look...

And they're doing something only royal fairies do, and know, I'm sure of it. ^_~"

And once again one of the great pictures of Fuu-sama, inspired by William Shakespeare.
Brains would be a good thing for commenting your pictures...
I dunno why, but soehow your pictures are so... powerful. O.o; What am I explaining anyway?

:-) ´Taika´ Tuuli Aarniala replies: "
Wow, really?
I'm quite flattered...
It allways seems that only jonna is into my pictures, and I didn'd really know that you thought like that.
But I'm glad if it is so.
I'm glad if anyone is moved by my pieces of works. "

That's so Books of Magic!! *Drools.*

:-) ´Taika´ Tuuli Aarniala replies: "
Funny... I know it has influenced me on designing the Oberon and Titania of my story, but this picture doesn't remind me of the adventures of Timothy at all...
This is too delicate, too fragile, and too light.
Somehow the books of Magic seem to be more punkish, more bleak an dark.
for me, atleast... "

It think the lightness you use is what makes it so outstanding...very soft and cacthing. ^-^ makes you pay attention.

Humble Thanks *bows*"

I really love this picture. You printed this to me once of which I made a bookmark, and then you printed it once more and made me a new bookmark. I have them stored in between the pages of the Hobbit, which is my favourite book ever. I hope it speaks the volumes of how much the bookmarks mean to me. Thank you.
