Hello Deviantart! After a very long break, i am back on deviantart and doing arts!


I've been almost inactive for years in terms of posting new content, but i've been continuing my art journey. I kept taking photos, been learning digital painting, modeling and and learning all sort of things related to game development. It got much more intense in last few months.


It was about 10 years ago when i bought my first digital camera. Soon after i grew very passionate about photography and started to share my photos here on deviantart.


As i was learning photography, all comments, feedback, likes have been playing a big role in my progress. Over the years my level of photography increased, but i found less and less time to share them. Some real lfe situations also got on the way and my photography stayed "dormant" for some years, even though i ve been actively shooting, just not actively processing and sharing them :)


Photography opened the doors to other hobbies, which changed my lifestyle andmy perspective on life. I've been travelling, trekking, camping, hunting auroras at night in darkest areas alone.


Now i am slowly changing my field to game development and game art. I am taking a huge variety classes at the local university, and taking online classes from industries world top artists and also following many amazing artists in social media. My classes vary from traditional drawing, human anatomy to character animation, game engines, game design. I must say the variety and amount of new stuff is a bit overwhelming, but it is extremely fun being productive and absorbing all these new knowledge.


I am planning to share my works here, as i learn and discover more and more about it. Just as i did when learning photography.


All feedback from this awesome community of Deviantart will be very valuable as i continue my journey in arts, as it has always been :)


I will try to keep my journey updated here :)

It has been almost a year since i have joined DA and bought my first DSLR. When i first uploaded some photos i was happy when i got a few favs, now i have 20K pageviews and 1600 watchers. I think i will write a more detailed journal about this later. Thank YOU ALL so much, who gave me much motivation with all their positive or critical comments, favs and watchs. Also many thanks to all great artists here who gave me the inspiration and motivation for taking better photos, with the great art they have.
Now with the summer and good weathers i am able to take more photos than ever :D However i've been in vacation since a week and therefore less active, but i will be more active after next tuesday. Till then i am sorry for all late replies. Btw i am planning to make a timelapse video too but we will see :) I have taken over 4K photos in last few days for that purpose already :)

Have a great weekend! :)

Being away

1 min read
Lately i have been away from DA mostly, and did not upload any photos. I think i will be away for about another 10 days. In last weeks winter conditions in Finland got very tough for photography, providing not much to photograph actually, or at least i could not find much to photograph, and last week i got the opportunity to realize my long planned visit to Istanbul, but guess what, the weather was not any better here.... Sigh... But still i got some opportunities for photoshooting, yet i could not not do most of what i had planned before. Anyway i will be in Istanbul for about a week, then i will be back in Finland and back to DA with my new Istanbul photos :)
I am sorry for all the unanswered messages, and not checking my deviantwatch messages.
See ya soon:)
