Top are the last IKEA sketch of the year, and my door ... Bottom most likely is the last set of Minty comic of the year ... and the very bottom is myself as a unicorn ... Err ... a funky unicorn. It's a drawing game we play amount a group of artists pal ... we are supposed to draw ourselves as a unicorn ... Never imagine how I would look as an unicorn ... doodle this one here. Not too happy with my unicorn look ... may cook up somethings more "appealing" later ... Hummm ...
Thank you everyone for your visit and constant encouragement. Wish you a wonderful winter holidays!
TAG Post for 7 things about myself:
Top is the final version of the Peppermint Mocha painting ... below are all the sketches. One thing I learn from this painting after I finish it ... I realize I never understand snow very well ... beside very limited traveling experience in winter, I never experience REAL snow situation. 
I have been staring at the painting for days when it's almost done ... wondering what's missing, and why doesn't feel cold ... Then it clicks me!! Wait a second, I never experience a snowy white winter before. I want to paint a freezing cold snowy winter, but ... sub-consciously I painted a light snowy weather ... from my limited snow experience. 
I never did realize my ignorant in all these sketches ... the color are too bright and too warm in all the drawings. Many people always wonder why my color from the world I grow up and live in ... tropic warm weather in Hong Kong and sunny California. 
I kind of know these fact in the back of my head ... but never did THINK about it seriously. 
Plants and woodland are few of the things that could be rambunctious, and yet give people the feel of tranquil at the same time. 
WOO HOOO!! It's snowing at the mountain today, can't wait for the weekends.
This top illo is a drawing game I am playing with Pascal. I try to continue the story moment in his illo. HE! HE!! 
This is inspired by a silly joke among my pals. We called ourselve - "Ice-Cream Angels." We kick butt and fight crime ... LOL 
I get good at "ransoming" people with ice-cream or forzen yogurt. People buy me ice-cream just to stay in peace!! WA! HA! HA! HA !! And the guy in the chair, he likes to throw paper balls, tell scary stories to freak other people out. He is good, but every now and then he may get into trouble, and we have to save his butt. Anyhow ... among ourselves, we like to out wit and play prank on each other. But if any one of us is in trouble, we will gang up and fight for justice ... and of course, we always recuse other helpless people from danger too!!
The zoo keeper told us that female rein deers look exactly the same as the male, except they are 2 times smaller. These are female deers, and yes, they have antlers just like the male.
These are from the LA zoo drawing outing. I just update the drawing section in my web-site, please come and visit.
Top two pages are from the Julian trip. Below are Costco and zoo luncheon sketch.
December is an exciting month, first there is Christmas - my favorite holiday, and this month there are 3 shows in LA and Japan, which I am part of. I just up-date the main page and gallery section in my web-site with the shows info. If you are in the area, please come to visit the galleries. Have a great Friday and Happy weekends!!
Top is inspired by the drive at the beautiful Rim of the World Scenic Byway. Below are on location sketches during the trip and a memory sketch of the sunset at the San Bernardino Mountains on the way home.
Monday ... work day ... Brrr ... LOL
