THURSDAY 13TH SEPTEMBER - wood




While on my last trip to Finland I came across this extraordinary museum at Paateri to a wonderfully talented wood sculptress by the name of Eva Ryynanen. She was so in tune with her suroundings that this was a wonderful atmospheric place to feel privileged to visit.

This bear was 1.5 metres high and has a gorgeous expression.
