Behind the mask by Satu Vartiainen

I really like this Satu. A very strong image - and inventive.

I like this too Satu. Stands out.

This is great Satu. Bold and beautiful! Such well placed, good colour and those blocks of turquoise that I always love in your work.

Cool Satu

Wow this is inspiring Satu! I love the way you have used the cubes of colour to build the framework.....brilliant.

Thank you ever so much for the lovely comments Margaret, Jim, Louise, Dennis and Fiona. Always much appreciated.

Great stuff Satu - that must be your favourite colour! ( the blue )

Strong image and great colours Satu.

Thank you Marjorie and yes, it’s a fantastic blue for this kind of work.

Many thanks Sandra!

I like the stylised face as a concept for creating an Abstract impression, as it produces a dimensional image which protrudes from the surface and remains even when one adds a medium! It can distort the image, yet also does retain the original characteristics! Interesting concept and technique Satu!

Thank you very much Helen for your lovely comment and Angela for your detailed analysis, very much appreciated.

This is brilliant, I like 'alternative ' portraits Satu, beautifully striking!

Thank you Carole, so kind.

Wow, Satu, this really is eye-catcher. Beautifully executed, strong colours, love it!

Thank you very much Mia for your lovely comment.

That is such a strong image Satu it keeps calling me back for another look.

Many thanks Val!

Works well and the colours are great
