RENEWAL is an ephemeral trilogy created on the ice of Alberta, Canada. Using chalk, charcoal, and earth pigments, I painted directly onto the ice, letting wind, temperature, and water shape the final form. One figure emerges into new beginnings, one releases the past, and one holds love in the cracks. Each work was made within a narrow weather window—vulnerable to thaw and moving water—then transformed or erased as the lake changed overnight. Renewal is never clean, and beauty can be found in brokenness.

Renewal Masters Edition
Renewal is available for a short window: March 16–23 (7 days only).
Email subscribers get Early Access on March 15 at 18:00 Helsinki / 12:00 New York / 11:00 Calgary.
When the window closes, the drop closes.
Most sizes in this release are timed editions. That means the edition is open only during the 7-day window. The final edition size is determined by how many are collected before the window closes.
Once Renewal closes on March 23, the edition is finalized and the works will not be available again.
Prints — the pure image on museum-grade 100% cotton fine art paper. Each print is hand-signed and numbered (A4 is the only open edition).
Collector Editions — the image becomes an artifact object: mounted into a hand-crafted fractured surface inspired by the ice, finished by hand so that no two are the same.
Master Editions — sculptural statement pieces: the most time-intensive work we make, built with depth, refraction, and hand-finished detail—designed to feel like an artifact uncovered from the ice.
Every collectible includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
All prints are hand-signed and numbered.
A3 and above include an NFC authentication chip: tap your phone to view the digital certificate and the full story behind the work.
Collector and Master Editions are hand-finished objects—each one is unique by nature of the process.
Renewal is crafted, finished, and packed in Finland by David and a small team.
From print quality and paper choice to signing, fingerprinting, and finishing—the entire process is handled in-studio. These are not mass-produced or drop-shipped products.
Prints ship first. Collector and Master Editions are hand-crafted and take longer to produce.
You'll receive tracking as soon as your order ships.
Estimated timelines:
- Prints: 7-21 business days (Largely dependent on the total edition size)
- Collector Editions: 4–6 weeks
- Master Editions: 6–10 weeks
We ship worldwide. International orders may be subject to local duties/taxes depending on your country. These fees are set by your local customs office and are the responsibility of the buyer. However, all duties and taxes to the U.S and Canada are paid by us- as we will be working with local shipping partners to send your print. First from Finland to U.S/Canada and then with USPS/Canada Post.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
David Popa is a contemporary artist known for creating monumental, ephemeral frescoes directly onto the Earth. Working primarily with natural pigments like chalk, charcoal, and minerals, Popa crafts hauntingly powerful portraits across glaciers, lava fields, islands, and shorelines—works that are ultimately reclaimed by nature.
Born to a family of artists in New York City and now based in Finland, Popa’s creative journey blends classical training with raw intuition. His work lives at the intersection of art, nature, and the sacred. Each piece is not only a visual creation but a personal pilgrimage: a meditation on time, decay, identity, and the unseen.
In recent years, Popa’s large-scale land works have gained international recognition, featured by BBC, CNN, Colossal, and more. He has collaborated with large brands such as Apple and Adidas along with working on some of the largest public art projects in the world. He documents his process through cinematic short films that give viewers access to both the physical creation and the spiritual intention behind the work.
David invites his audience to slow down, look closer, and contemplate the transient beauty of being alive.
COLLECTORS ARE RAVING ★★★★★
The last release in November 2025 exceeded expectations and prints sold out. The feedback was overwhelming. Every print is now studio-made, hand-signed, fingerprinted, and crafted on archival cotton paper directly from the hands of the artist, David Popa.

Beautiful work 😍
Excellent printing quality.
Many thanks for this stunning piece of art. It has been finished to perfection and was perfectly packed for the transport.
All the best for your future endeavors, we are curiously looking forward to your next projects!
Best regards from Cyprus!
I received my Master’s Edition piece of “Shelter” by David Popa and it exceeds my expectations! I love it. I am blessed to have a captured moment in time of one of his works in nature.
Stunning. I love it. Packed with care and great customer service.
Gifted by God with your amazing talent! I’m addicted! I cannot wait for your next release !
Simply beautiful...This is my first piece I have bought from David and it did not disappoint. His collector's editions feel so special to receive from him. I love all the personal touches he leaves on his artwork!
I came across David Popa's work on Instagram seemingly by chance. After doom scrolling for a time, feeling so heavy and anxious, this piece made me pause, stop my mindless scrolling and take in his work. It was the breath of fresh air I needed desperately. I then messaged Popa, letting him know how his work impacted me -how important having art that truly moves. I never thought he would even see it but Popa replied back to me, echoing my sentiment and thanking me for my support. That brief moment of connection meant a lot. "Haven" gives me hope that my art as a dancer might also touch someone the same way Popa's work has done to me. I am grateful to have this work in my home.
Absolutely magnificent! The image, the color, the framing. Inspires everyone to remember what is best in the human spirit and the importance of beauty.
I love it! It’s everything I wanted! soft yet hard, it’s lovely.
I absolutely LOVE my piece!
A wonderful and deeply moving piece, By any benchmark very profound thinking blended with creativity. Loved it. Regretting the size I choose.
Purchased ‘Haven’ and ‘Shelter’. They complement each other beautifully. Such an investment in showcasing such a talented artist.
My creative and stunning artworks arrived in perfect condition and are as beautiful as your website depicted. Can't wait to have them framed and hung so I can share them with family and friends.
