Colleagues of mine after a visit to Mexico brought Kirsti''s much admired art to my attention just yesterday. After having seen some of it on the Zihrena and other websites, I share the admiration of her work. I hope a lot of it finds it way back to Finland (where my paternal grandmother, born in 1874 s Bertha Toernudd, was among the first lady students at Ateneum. One of her teachers was Helene Scherfbeck - whose small oil-on-canvas of a hyacinth I unfortunately have lost during my nomadic life). May Kirsti''s memory and art live long to the comfort and inspiration of many in all the places she lived in and beyond.

I especially like the one with the two women in the boat with the umbrellas. The colors are absolutely gorgeous. I just got back into making art again myself, and looking at what you''re painting inspires me. I imagine you are doing well and enjoying Mexico right now. I miss you, my brilliantly creative pal.

I looked up your name in the Graduation Catalogue so that I could google you in hopes that you had a contact on the internet. Which brought me to this site. Alright well, why I went through all this trouble is because Jamie Reid (also from our Geva class) and I have started a gallery called, "The Gam" and we are looking for artists to show in it. Both of us really enjoyed your pieces in the grad show, to say the least. If you are still creating and are wantng to show some of your work we should talk. We are having a show that will open on February 11th that is called, "Our Vast Habitat, so Full- of Creatures", I know you have done work in the past that would fit perfectly into this show. If you are interested in submitting something into this show you can email us at thegam@live.com or email us back to discuss the possibility of having a solo show at our gallery in the future that would also be swell. Hope to hear from you soon. Best Regards, Julia Kreutz gamgallery.com Hello Katalina,
