Artist Raasuke working on a painting

Raasuke

The goal of my art is to look into a child’s eyes and recognize myself there—grown-up, yet still capable of wonder. It is a gaze free of cynicism—warm, alive, full of curiosity and humor."

“Whoever will humble himself like young child is the one who is the greatest.”

Guess, oh guess, what do I see?
Sweet soul gals wash hair in glee,
and girls with towels so free,
little boats and bouncing balls –
that it is what I see.

Happiness is when kittens play around,
Happiness is when friends sing aloud.
Happiness comes in an ice-cream cone,
my father is one, who provides me this one.

This painting is part of the “Children about Art” series. It was created based on a playful survey of a group of 30 four-year-olds. Children’s free and unbiased perception of art helps viewers not only discover the meanings intended by the artist, but also take a creative approach to their own interpretation.


“Father’s Heart”

“All my childhood adventures, worries, and joys are preserved forever in my father’s heart.

It was a warm and secure haven, there was no room for fears and wickedness..

Memories of this fortress full of light helps me even now stand firm against attacks of darkness.

“Man like Sun”

“Man like Sun”

Acrylic on Canvas

Price: 8,500 EUR

“Sunset is burning today … I will protect you, my love, your eyes.

Just like the sun carries warmth and security,

a woman expects the same from the man she loves.

She wants her beloved to be by her side

at sunrises and at sun sets.

She desires it to be as sure as start of a new day.

When life’s troubles obscure the light,

then a man has time to shine and be supportive

and to release his energy.”


“Moon’s Lullaby”

Oil on Canvas
120 × 150 × 4 cm
Price: 11,500 EUR

“The sun has gone — its final glow
Still calls goodnight from cloud to cloud.
I’m not yet sleepy — the day was bright,
Perhaps the moon will sing to me, right?

So faithful and true — my companion so pure,
Its gentle night‑light softly guides me through,
And tells me a tale — be it old or new,
And somehow this way it all feels so cool.

My eyelids grow heavy — goodnight, busy day,
Perhaps we will meet again in fey.
The moon is my friend, watching over my sleep,
Now quickly we drift into slumber so deep.”

“Moon’s Lullaby”

“The Best Road Is the Road Home”

Oil on Canvas

Price: 8,200 EUR

“Every traveler eventually reaches the place they have longed for the most — to return safely to their home harbor.

The warm moonlight and the gentle tailwind only hasten that joyful moment of reunion. Just beyond the next bend I already see my childhood home, where my father and mother await me.

Even the moon understands that I am expected at home!“


“My Childhood Friends”

Oil on Canvas
50 × 70 cm
Price: Sold

We were a wondrous team back then — his speed and strength, my dreaming might.
No height too high, no distant glen, no place we couldn’t reach or find.
Each morning brought a brand-new quest, a world of colors, scents, and song,
a place where friendship shone its best
and loyal love would last so long.

And though our bond has worn so thin,
a tender thread what once was win.
Now I know my prayer to God, Jehovah:
“Oh, please bring back my friend of youth, my steadfast guide on this journey with me.”

At last, it clicked into place,
That attitude bursting with drama.
My stance got laughs.
But with what results? Pose so beautiful!

Too bad the room is empty
No fragrant of rose at the stage.
The silence is heavy, no applause at all
A music box tune would make so much more.

That’s it for today — I’ll grab a cold drink,
A refreshing reward for the effort, I think.
Tomorrow’s show is all sold out,
I’ll give it my best, I promise, no doubt!

„The sincere light in art gives an important message: gentle, bright emotions are just as real and meaningful as the complex and contradictory ones."
