The director of the Instituutti kindly promised her executive office for us for the weekend and as we’ve never had such fancy executive headquarters before, we made the most of it. We also made some attractions for the high street entry to the Instituutti. Tomorrow is the real push to get the works actually up on the wall – salon style.

You continue to amaze and thrill me. Keep up the wonderful art!
Thank you so much Norma! We promise to continue working 🙂
