Kissa ja perhonen Drawing by Ari Reinikainen

Born in 1954, Ari Reinikainen is a renowned Finnish artist who lives and works in Finland. Mastering various techniques, he uses pastel on paper, ink on paper, chalk on paper, pastel on cardboard and oil on linen to create his works.

His impressionist style is distinguished by a particular sensitivity to light and color, capturing landscapes with a delicate and expressive touch. The Finnish landscapes, with their variations of light and changing seasons, are a constant source of inspiration for him. Ari Reinikainen draws strong inspiration from the works of Venäläinen Sciskin, which is reflected in his poetic and atmospheric approach to nature.

His art is an invitation to discover the beauty and tranquility of the Finnish landscapes. The soft brushstrokes and subtle nuances of his pastels and oils help convey a feeling of peace and contemplation. Ari strives to capture the essence of each scene, whether it's a sunset over a tranquil lake or the first snows of winter blanketing the forest.
