ART BY JOLINDA MAKINEN Jolinda Mäkinen is a versatile artist with a degree in film-making, too many hobbies and an endless stream of ideas to turn into tales and works of art. She has self-published the Young Adult fantasy series the Bladewings trilogy on Amazon and currently has further literary projects in the works, ranging from sci-fi to mystery. In the field of artistic expression she has tried out various art styles and genres, including book cover design, ink drawing and oil painting, but her favorite remains creating concept art of fantastical worlds, interesting characters and their gorgeous costumes. She currently lives in Australia, where she continues creating art and writing books while learning the violin and other interesting things the world has to offer.
