Painting, drawing and more.
I’ve changed several laptops/computers along these years. Every time I change a new one I left some files in the previous one. Of course I back up all the files in a separate drive but I don’t need to fill the new computer with bunch of older documents that I didn’t even look at. Couple […]
Read MoreIt has been over 3 months since Naomi came to our home. It is not a smooth adapting process if I would say, but I’m glad that at least I keep my calm and try to solve problem one at a time. First, I spent sometime to switch the litter type. She is now using […]
Read MoreOne day I caught up a video on YouTube called “Lucas the spider“. An example of their videos, I was really interested in this concept. And Lucas the spider just “cute”, especially the voice. To be honest, I can’t deal with insects. I’m OK with butterfly (not caterpillar stage) and bees as long as they […]
Read MoreFirst day of new year~! I did my first “abstract” painting study. The reference photo was texture of metal rust. Well for me it was the most “abstract” picture I can understand. So I thought why not try? I have to try it at some point. However in the beginning I had no idea what […]

Read MoreI did a tiger’s eyes oil painting on piece of Canada goose feather last year. This year I am able to made two more. Still the same batch of feather. I didn’t find any more good condition feathers in 2020. o(╯□╰)o One is farm land. One is sea waves. Both of them is about 2″ […]
Read MoreI’ve always wanted to paint fantasy subject. And finally I started to do it. The idea of this painting was talking to me while I looked some reference photos online. Back then I just don’t have the confidence to actual paint it. As usual, I would like to draw a digital concept sketch to help […]
Read MoreI’ve always wanted to paint landscape. I admire those beautiful landscape paintings with loose brush stroke full of expression and accurate light and shadow form. But it is out of my comfortable zone. So I tried something with less “land” elements such as field, grass, hills or forest. I picked up this piece to do […]
