After a while, I started to concentrate on portraits until I managed to get a good grasp on them. This improved my "technical" Photoshop skills and gave me the courage to tackle other types of vintage photos like landscapes, war scenes, cars, city life, and all sorts of miscellaneous subjects.

I like to colorize images that intrigue me and my imagination. Images I'm curious to see in color, besides portraits of important or less important figures, some more or less known, some more or less controversial. I like to give people that follow my work images that will set them on a path of discovery and a bit of knowledge. That will put a smile on their faces, or make them remember a part of history (like they do for me). By doing this, I also share with them a bit of myself, a bit of what interests me.

Here is a part of my over 1300 colorized photos. I hope you'll enjoy them

Here’s a fun fact: The pancake makeup that looks so white on the screen and in stills was actually a pale green. (I’ve done a lot of reading on the early days of cinema, and this is one of the bits that has stayed lodged in my brain.)

By the way, Rovaniemi is officially considered a city, and it's not just any city, it's located exactly at the pole circle, it's the hometown of Finnish Eurovision Song Contest winning rock band Lordi, and it's the place where you can visit the house of Santa Claus. In winter it is full of foreign tourists.

That was just before women stopped being allowed to have any fat on their stomachs whatsoever or they were considered chubby, at least in almost all shows and movies (not necessarily music videos). In the movie industry, she's be considered plus-sized now. So stupid.
