Home Art Studio
Have moved out to live on my own for nearly 2 years now, I finally decided to clean up the living room this past week. After clearing up and organizing much of the junk that had accumulated since moving in, I had a little corner set up for painting. I couldn’t resist to start painting […]

🌏 Weekend
It was Earth Day on Friday, I seized the opportunity to do some gardening and pampered the many succulents in the studio. Earth Day became Earth Weekend.

Creative Monday
There was time to spare after I finished my chinese calligraphy homework, I attempted for the first time to do animal portraiture with a real calligraphy brush on chinese rice paper. Feel really inadequate with my skill. Think I’m much better off to stick with my faithful brush pen for now.

Animal Portraiture
After my uncle passed away more than 2 weeks ago, I seemed to have become more withdrawn, quiet, and serious. I also seemed to have grown more conscious about the limit of our time in this world. The question about life’s purpose also pops up more often in my mind these days, what does God […]
