Commute inspiration!

Many people have been asking me, whether I miss LA - the sunny weather and the beaches. To be honest, I don't miss LA the city too too much, after all northern CA isn't that far away from LA. Living style isn't a huge different. SF has a different personality. I love being surrounded by lovely tranquil scenery. I have family of deers glazing outside of my bedroom in the evening. This picture below is inspired by my everyday commute to work. Around the studios are beautiful pastures, with deers, turkeys, cows, bunny wabbits, duckings etc wondering around ... it's very difficult not to love the location.

But there is one thing I DO miss a lot ... that would be all my dear friends in LA.

Alina I've loved your work for so long and I'm even more crazy for these sketchbook paintings. It looks like you're painting on watercolor paper and then gluing them into a journal, the best of both worlds? This one is so interesting -- a sweet small scene that connects to a bigger one with a whole different story. Love it! I hope I get to meet you at the Sketchcrawl in SF Saturday! Welcome to the Bay Area!

I'd nonetheless make that face if I am requested to do a hundred pushups. lol Anyway, in my language, there should not much good source like this.

I've to say, I dont know if its the clashing colors or the bad grammar, but this blog is hideous! I mean, I dont wish to sound like a know-it-all or anything, but might you will have probably put slightly bit extra effort into this subject. Its really interesting, but you dont characterize it well at all, man. Anyway, in my language, there are usually not a lot good supply like this.
