TIMO KÄHaRA

"Sisters" Oil on acm, 40x29 cm A commissioned painting I painted relatively recently. The painting is based on an old paper photo. Size of the photo I used was 9x6 cm, so not too much detail and information to capture. "Sum of all dreams" Oil on linen, 120x100 cm. Available. "Equilibrium" Oil on linen , 120x90 cm. SOLD. "ГЭП - Hot Estonian Man" Oil on linen, 100x120 cm Under the cover of secrecy, I can say that the model is me. So it's like a self-portrait in 12 poses. That day, when I had borrowed a thermal camera to take pictures, I had a fever of 38.5 °C. SOLD. "Longing" Oil on ACM panel, 496x700 mm We all have our own desires and longings. It is up to the viewer to decide what this man and woman long for. At least the sky is blue and the weather is sunny. SOLD. "Imagine" Oil on linen, 120x150cm. SOLD at the Tartu art auction 2024. "An apple" Oil on canvas, 81x65 cm. It is up to the viewer to decide whether this is the apple that keeps the doctor away when consumed daily or the apple that once brought a lot of trouble to mankind in the Garden of Eden. SOLD. "My little Hermes" Graphite and marker on paper, 40x59,4 cm. This pose inspired to add same extra details. Available. "Make up your mind" Oil and spray paint on canvas, 80x60 cm + golden wooden frame. Available. "The look" Charcoal and soft pastel on paper, 59,4x42 cm. I felt like that her look needed some emphasizing. Available. "Together" Oil on linen, 100x70 cm. A commissioned family portrait. I liked the vibe of the reference photo. A good reference photo allows you to paint a good painting. "Thanks for life" Oil on linen, 60x80 cm. As a man, as a father, I will probably never be able to fully understand the special bond between a mother and a child. At least in this painting I tried to capture it. "Red Rose" Oil on masonite, 12,7x19,8 cm (27x33,6 cm with frame) I hardly ever paint flowers. But if I do then it better be a red rose on black background. And may I say that in addition to painting the flower I made the panel and the frame myself. SOLD. "Bundle of Joy" Oil on ACM (Aluminium composite Material), 20x20 cm. I used 4 color Zorn palette. Finally. My youngest child is already 8 months old and this is the first painting I painted of him. He really is a bundle of joy. "Almost busy" Oil on canvas, 100x80 cm. Why not enjoy the occasional idle life if you can afford it. SOLD at gallery Art And Tonic. "Kristi" Graphite and chalk on handicraft cardboard, 297x210 mm. A commissioned portrait drawing. "Star map" Oil on canvas, 80x100cm. If you look closely, the birthmarks on the human body are like a secret star map. Especially when colors are inverted. SOLD at Tartu Art Auction 2023. "Gently does it" Charcoal and soft pastel on paper, 41x55 cm. A man has to be careful with the things he does. I used both vine charcoal and compressed charcoal. The latter is for really dark areas. SOLD. "A Worshiper" Graphite and gold leaf on paper, 42x59,4 cm. First time for me to use a gold leaf on paper with graphite drawing. I used gold leafs as flakes not as tiles, because I like the randomness of the result. Available. "Dream sand sower" Charcoal and chalk on toned paper, 48x76 cm. It started like a normal figure drawing but ended a little dreamily. Inspired by a reference photo from New Masters Academy. Available. "That's the one" 0,1 fine liner on paper, 21x29,7 cm "Under a happy little cloud" Oil on canvas, 70x100 cm Sometimes it's good to look at the world at a different angle. SOLD in noba.ac "How to install a lightbulb" Graphite on paper, 594x420 mm. Model on original reference photo didn't have a lightbulb in his hand, but the pose seemed perfect for that activity and I couldn't resist. SOLD. "FertiliZer" Graphite 6B and marker on paper. 205x255 mm. It takes just a moment, a life ends and a fascist invader becomes fertilizer to the land it tries to occupy. Slava Ukraini! "I'm watching you" Oil on copper, 12,7 x 17,78 cm (5 x 7 inches) First time for me to paint a chicken, first time for me to paint on copper. I find chicken to be very interesting but underrated. They are modern time dinosaurs. "Stardust" Oil on canvas, 150x120cm. Origin of the name - when I made those endless dots on her face I realized that no matter who we are or how we look, we are all made of stardust. Literally. SOLD at art auction. "Touch" Oil on linen (on aluminium panel), 35,5x45,7 cm I quess every viewer can interpret their own feeling and mood about that painting. Anyway I found the feeling that I was looking for. SOLD. "I love realism" Oil and modeling paste on masonite, 44,4x35,5 cm. I used 5 layers of gloss varnish on the heart to give it that special wet appearance. Rest of the painting is covered with satin varnish, so that glossy heart pops out even more.Available "Red Riding Hood" Plack pencil and soft pastel on paper, 42x59,4 cm. Apparently Little Red Riding Hood has grown up and has company. SOLD. "Vitamin Bean" Graphite and chalk on toned paper, 17,4x12,7 cm. This character is like vitamin, if you're feeling bad or sad just look at him and you'll feel better. "Terminator T-800" Oil on masonite, 30,3x30,3 cm. I thought that it would be cool to paint a classical portrait of that famous movie character. Available. "Put on a happy face" Soft pastels on black paper, 29,7x42 cm. Inspired by a movie "Joker". It's somewhat disturbing but nevertheless a great movie. Joaquin Phoenix is a great actor. "Yep, thats me. Self portrait at the age of 40" Oil on masonite, 28x36 cm. Thats my average stoneface, but if you look carefully then perhaps you can see a smile or smirk. I used some Liquin to give my eyebrows and fringe some texture that catches light. "Re-reunion of a boyband" Oil on canvas, 100x50 cm. Death is always part of zeitgeist. The Rolling Bones. Available. "Her 3" Oil on masonite, 15x21 cm Little alla prima painting of my lovely wife.

Loved the profile of the model's face and the pose. Available. "Maamu" Oil on panel, 35x45 cm. It's my granny sitting on her favorite chair behind the kitchen table. "Maamu" is her nickname. I kept the palette relatively simple. "Upwards" Graphite and watercolor on paper, 40x57 cm. I planned to keep it somewhat unfinished, but fiddled too much with the part of the drawing that was planned to be kept only outlines. So I finished the figure and added a watercolor pop instead.300€ "White linen" Graphite and chalk on toned paper, 25x43 cm. This drawing is for sale, 125€ plus postal fees (framed, ready to hang). Inspired by a reference photo from @newmastersacademy collection. Available. "Girl with a blossom" Oil on panel, 31x44 cm. I used a bit thicker layer of paint on blossom to give it 3D-ish appearance.

I managed to keep Freud black and white but the backround is colourful, though. Quarantine is the perfect time to do self analysis. SOLD at art auction. "Observer" Oil on panel, 38x44 cm. Although only 7 months old, this Labrador Retriever knows how to be dignified. Available. "Blink" Oil on canvas, 50x40 cm. "Friends" Oil on canvas, 50x70 cm.
