This is the first and only (so far) painting complete in 2009. After finishing the painting i did for David just months ago, I decided that I loved that one so much, i’m going to do one for myself. I set it up similar to the original except I can’t paint cheese, so i decided to go with some fruit. This one took about a month to do, again, play movie while working on it. I think Harry Potter was a popular theme in those nights.

I was asked to do a painting for my manager David Finney in December of 2008. It was meant to be a Christmas present for his then girlfriend and current Fiancée Amy. We worked together to come up with the idea, which was simple scene of a cutting board, and ingredient of Amy’s favorite dish. David bought the grape and cheese, and i used my own cutting board, knife, wine glass, and a recently acquired bottle of wine (from walking a neighbor’s dog) and set them up in the corner of my bedroom. I put a movie on my laptop, and painted almost every night for 2 weeks before the Holidays.

I took this photo while visiting China in January of 2008. My friend Kai and I just finished climbing part of the great wall located near Beijing. When we came down, we saw a tree with hundreds of these charms tied onto it. These charms have the chinese character 福 (luck) written on them.

Because most people can’t reach the top of the true, most of these charms are tied to the few bottoms branches of the tree. The crushing weight was pulling whole branches down, much like the population problem in China, a lot of good wishes, too few branches.

Poster design project at MICA. This is an experimental piece for me to study adobe illustrator.

This was taken, or should i say these were taken during fall of 2007. I was going to MICA at the time and lived in Sutton place, an apartment building near the school. One day, just after a thunderous storm in the afternoon, a rainbow appeared and the sky turned orange and pink. I took some shots and put them together in photoshop.
