Space Waves Painting

Hi, my name is Jori Poutanen. I come from Finland but lived one half my life in Australia. I Currently live in Cairns, tropical North Queensland. Surrounded tropical rainforests and Great Barrier Reef. Great place to up bring your young family. I love outdoor living, trekking, fishing, diving and of course oil painting. I work only with oil paint. I’m always experimenting with different techniques and discovering different ways to use my oil medium. My father and uncle in Finland were artist in their own. Observing my artistic family when I was young gave me spark to paint as well. My uncle was a professional artist in Finland. He was a World War II TK draftsman where he held a “Rifle in one hand and a pencil in the other hand” and documented the activities of the front. He would have a lot of stories to tell. And my father on other hand was a sailor who was painting offshore when he had time. We Finns don't talk too much but let the paintings speak for themselves. I paint way I see it and I hope you like what you see.
