Happy Boxing Day!!

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas holiday! This may be one of the last postings in this year!

This bottom piece is a quick sketch at a local bar, when we have a little gather after work.

A few months ago, I mention in the blog that my artwork was selected to be part of the Semi-permanent book. The book is finally published. It's a great book, beautifully printed with collection of many wonderful artwork from artists all over the world. It's available to purchase on-line at their book site.

Minty's Christmas Mails

It has been a while, since Minty shows up at the blog!! The lazy little guy has been having too much fun exploring his new city and enjoying the cold weather ... It has been real tough to get him help out around the blog, but Christmas and snow is his favorite season, so here we go - Minty Christmas Cards!!

Painting in the rain!

Went to De Young Museum for the Impressionism exhibition with friends today. We get very inspired by the exhibition and decided to start working on our painting right after regardless it's raining cats and dogs!!

Since I paint with watercolor ... it's soluble under the weather ... not exactly a rain friendly medium, but then nature could contribute some very interesting "brush stroke" on the artwork! LOL Top is a work-in-progress of one of the paintings .. the little dotted texture are naturally created by rain drop!!
