Petra Kaminen MosherIn recognition of the rainy day (and potentially rainy weekend) in northern Finland (prime mosquito-emerging weather), here’s a Lapland landscape I painted in 2021.

Chris & MarenFinnish Lapland. The coming night was predicted to be very mild, so we decided to spend it outside. We packed our things and we're very excited because it would be the first night "outside" with our son. Our destination was a kota, a Finnish shelter. Tomate slept very well. In the sleepingbag, snuggled up close to mom. She, in turn, hardly got any sleep at night. But it was worth it. It was a wonderful experience!

The UKK park is one of the biggest national parks in Finland. It's very open and accessible with entrances from many sides. But although it's also a very popular park, once you get away from the trailhead you can roam for hours and hours without running into anybody. With body = people, because no shortage of animals here: reindeer, plovers and kuukkelis galore. I've read there are bears and wolverines here too, but I've never run in to them. I haven't run into moose either, but I did see at least one heap of small chocolate easter eggs. Exhibit A :)
The landscape is a combination of old pine forest and treeless fjells intersected by rock gorges and small streams. Along the paths you can run into some old huts as well, as there was quite a bit of gold prospecting activity here in the beginning of the twentieth century. Actually, nearby at Laanila, there is still some small-scale prospecting going on.
I've been to this park many times now, but honestly, I like it best when the weather is shite. It adds some extra mystery to this magical pure fjell landscape. A bit of fog accentuating the depth of field, the soothing sound of raindrops falling in a fresh brook. This nature, with a sense of timelessness and a feeling of melancholy, it's just perfect..
