It was minus 25C this morning, but about 15 people of all ages came to my exhibition:-) One was a visitor from Facebook. Two 3-year olds enjoyed painting – it’s their second exhibition at Kahvi-Kaisa! The youngest visitor was just 3-weeks old.

About rvilmi
I was born and raised in Sussex, England. After studying to be a language teacher I taught for a year in France, then for a couple of years in England before doing voluntary service in Onitsha, Eastern Nigeria (also known as Biafra). I left Biafra at gunpoint as the British government 'thoughtlessly' sold arms to the non-Ibo Nigerians, who were at war with the people I was sent to teach. Many of the volunteers decided to seek work outside Britain after this experience. I was offered work in Finland, a cold, peaceful country, and decided to try my luck far from war-stricken Africa. I settled there, married a Finn, found a permanent teaching position at Helsinki University of Technology, and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. She, in turn gave birth to my granddaughter on 22nd September, 2006. Being a grandmother is wonderful and now I am enjoying the happiest time of my life.

Thank you Rita:-) Have you though about uploading some of Emma’s paintings? What is your twitter name? I’ve started a twitter group for showing children’s art.
Your scarf is still very useful – bitterly cold here this winter, but SO beautiful.
