I updated my profile for Art Fight! I couldn't decide on the team so I let RNG choose and I think it's perfect. My icon looks so silly on that edgy card.

Altaria I drew for a sticker rally! I had a tough time choosing which Pokémon to draw but it had been such a long time since I drew this lovely bird-dragon that I knew I had to pick it.

The Finnish postal service has finally updated their system for letters containing items for US shipping! I have been looking into it and it seems to be working and I should be able to resume shipping orders to the US as soon as I manage to update the shipping prices.

However, I am currently extremely busy so it may take me a while to set everything back up again. I have to go through every listing and make new shipping profiles for different product categories since the tariffs are targeted towards specific types of items.

As for the pricing, the Finnish Postal service charges 3 euros for each shipment regardless of what it is and, depending on the type of item (in my selection), either 0% or 10% tariff based on the item value.

I need to calculate in the Finnish VAT and Etsy fees (because I have to pay for both from not just the sold item but for the shipping fees as well).

I calculated a few example prices to give you an idea of what to expect.

For a single 7€ roll of washi tape the shipping cost would be approx 12 euros

For a single A4 art print costing 12€ the cost would be approx 14 euros

For a copy of my OLD GODS book costing 27€ the shipping cost would be approx 21 euros

So there is an increase for sure. It wasn't cheap before and it isn't better now, but at least it's not the 35 euro charge for DHL Express shipping.

Unfortunately there is nothing I can do about these costs and as a business I cannot pay this out of my pocket. Also, orders with a mixed variety of items will have a very...interesting shipping fee structure.

But hey, at least you no longer have to get jumpscared over the stupidly high shipping fee Etsy forced me to put in place because they kinda suck like that.

New stickers and lanyard keychains + restocks just arrived! These will be available at all of my events (minus the ones that don't allow fanart). I don't have the time to add these to my shop just yet but hopefully at some point.

Here's the second half of my 2026 con calendar! Going to be very busy but there's lot to look forward to an another new show abroad to add to my roster! I just applied to Kotae Expo so I will fave to wait for the results when the applications close.

Never stop the madness and here we go again!

You'll find me in Hypecon next weekend! I'll be bringing all sorts of goodies with me, you can take a look at my catalogue beforehand.

Some things sold out at Dokomi but on the flipside I have a wider selection and some clearance items with me.

DOKOMI BOOTH 3H10 PRODUCT CATALOG

Dokomi is this weekend! I have been really looking forward to this event and I have worked so hard to bring lots of new goodies for you! I'll be bringing even more desk mats and prints but it's still not many so be quick if you want one!

If you are around come say hi! I have a limited selection and quantities of my stock with me. I tried to pick my best for you so I hope you’ll like what I have on offer!

The catalog features most of my items - some almost didn't arrive on time so that's why it took me so long to get this catalog out.

I'm finalizing my packing for the event and it looks like I won't be able to fit my postcards into my display/luggage so I may have to leave them out this time. There are simply too many designs and too little space.

I analyzed my data from last year and it's not all that profitable for me to bring them.

However! If you want to buy some please send me a detailed list of what you want BY WEDNESDAY so I can bring them for you!

You can find my entire selection of postcards here!

They are 3€ per piece, 2 for 5€, 4 for 10€, 6 for 15€, 8 for 20€ and so on and so forth!

Please send me a list, quantities and when you would pick them up! Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience!

My new lanyard keychains were a huge hit at Arctic Lights Comic Con - thank you so much for all the love for this new product category! I severely underestimated the amount of stock I need so I sold out the majority of them.

But fear not! I'm working on a restock that will also include these new designs! I'm expecting to get these for Finland Card Expo MEGA in the end of June and for cons in July and onwards!

So the Finnish Postal service FINALLY updated their situation on shipping to the US. It's been EIGHT MONTHS since I was able to ship anything over so this is long overdue. I don't have the details yet and the tariffs will affect the pricing (not sure how much) but the fact that I would be able to send something without having to pay 30+ euros for it is huge. Here's the official statement. Stay tuned!

Sun and Moon

My latest addition to the Pokekami series! Solgaleo and Lunala have been requested many times at events so I finally got around to paint them. At first I was a little worried their colour scheme might not fit this style too well but I decided to just trust my experience and the process. And I'm glad I did! I really like the way this one turned out!

Prints available on InPrnt!

Arctic Lights Comic Con next week!

You can find me and my art at the event the whole weekend. My booth is located right next to the Artist Alley and Trading Card areas. Come say hi if you're around! I'm bringing lots of goodies from prlnts to playmats with me.

Spring Clearance sale! 35% off of selected items until May 15th!

I have way too many prints and I want to make space for new deigns so I'm clearing out older designs.
