Hello Steemians!

This is art made by my grandmother Irma Kokko. She is 87 years old and has been oil painting almost 40 years. She gently paints her emotions from different life situations of her long life. I started to digitize these paintings in this week and my grandfather wanted me to help to make these more known even though my grandmother Irma does not care much about what is going to happen to the paintings. I wanted to help my grandfather because he has been a big help to me in different life situations and my grandfather wanted to show respect and love to my grandmother by making this so important even he doesn't care much about art.

I'm going to publish her paintings in small series here and other places in social media. After this, I'm going to continue to market and sell these in different channels. Each painting has its own story that presents particular life situation her life. Elements of different feelings and even everyday things can be found in these paintings.

Here are the first part of the paintings that I'm going to publish.
