This illustration is based on a forest deity called Kati in old Finnish mythology/folklore – she’s the mother and protector of trees (“puiden emuu”).
I made an illustration process article of this piece for Kuvittaja (magazine of the Finnish Illustration Association), published in the issue 2/19.
Atacama Desert, Chile.
After almost 7 years of having no rain throughout the region, massive downpours in March caused pink mallow flowers and 200 other plant species to bloom. The phenomenon, in which dormant seeds come to life after rainfall events, is called ‘desierto florido’ or translated as ‘flowering desert’.
