Painting of a fountain in the middle of a verdant park landscape.
On top of it is a statue of an elf wearing a dress and staff, made of blue oxidized copper.
The faun mathematicians Olivia and Basil are sitting at the fountain's rim with drinks,
joined by Aava the mermaid lounging in the water.
In the background, some other characters are seen walking and hanging out on a beach.

A gouache and digital mixed media piece that I entered for the graphic art compo at Instanssi 2026. I also participated in the "fast graphics" compo with a time limit of 90 minutes and theme of "crab society" with the following ink sketch, titled "Ravunsilmälinssi" / "Crab's eye lens", which won second place (🥳):

An underwater city with high-rise buildings and streets full of crabs, seen in curved fish-eye perspective and rendered in a sketchbook using an ink pen.
