FINALLY UPDATE!

UGH
i can't get right color. i really need to take this painting to outside and take better picture.
BUT HERE IT IS: MY NEW PAINTING.
So for those of you who don't know what I've been up to...
I went back to school (finally) after 2 years! YAY! It's been fun and not-fun-at-all so far but I am definitely learning a lot! I am in LOVE with portraiture class because I love drawing people :D
I got lot of compliments from my teacher too so I am really enjoying that class :)
This portrait is from Portraiture class. I still need to fix minor things, but it's 99.5% done. Let me know what you think. Color is a bit off here, but I will change with better photo once I get help from my friend for photo-shoot.

I am having hard time with my other class. I guess I just don't have interest in that class. Teacher is cool, but I guess I don't get along with him that much. Hmm. Oh wells? Hahaha. I am trying as hard as I can so I can show him some good work :)

What else... oh yeah, my birthday was yesterday! Ah..so sad that I am getting old, but I am getting mature (maybe not but still) so I guess that's good. My dear friends made surprise dinner for me :) Thanks girls + bunny's bf for such a delicious thanksgiving/birthday dinner.

Anyways, my life during past 11 months since last post wasn't so special...kinda sad. Well, I guess there were some times that I thought it was special, but I won't say much about those. Hahaha.

I will post my other class stuff as I get more time to do so.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE :)

second photoshop piece i ever done.

okay. so this is what i've been working on since..... 4:30pm ish at Otis College of Art and Design.
i came to this school with a good friend of mine so i can work on new drawing piece. but she said she was going to computer lab and said i should try doing a digital piece, so i said "okay," and came downstairs with her.

it's still under progress, but i wanted to show a woman with a cigarette and a burnt (or burning) tree coming out of her throat to kind of represent how bad it is for your health...well..sorta.

her head got wayyyy bigger than i thought. but whatevers. tree is gonna be more focused as you can tell already...lol.

so far i like how color is coming out....i am going to keep color. i started with that tone as a sketch..but i really liked that color and i kept it..
i still have a lot of stuff that i need to work on...but yeah. i am working as hard as i can....
we will see.

oh yeah, aside from this piece. I AM GOING TO KOREA.
I will be leaving US on saturday morning. i am scared and excited. i will talk more about it later.

okkkkaaaay.... finally update of my life.

HELLO!
it's been a LONG time since last time I updated...and I realized that I've been giving out my business cards and I am sure some people stopped by and checked out my blog. Shame on me :/ Sigh. Anyways, I thought I should stop by (when I should come in everyday) and just update little bit to share what I've been doing. Okay.

I've been doing okay, sort of. Just being a poor artist, just like others. But! I got this project that I started with a good friend of mine and I think it's going to be so awesome! I can't wait until final comes out! I will let everyone know once it's done and I hope you all will be excited for it too :D We just finished one design out of 4 and I should be able to finish rest as soon as I finish rough sketch :).

And, I am done with 'dream' one, one I posted before this. I am still not sure if I am done for sure, but people who stopped by my place said they liked it...so I am happy to hear that. I probably going to add a bit more later on, but I put it aside for now. I am gonna start with another 'dream' one so it will be like a series, like how I did with 'tree' series and 'confetti' series. I love working in series. I think it's fun! It's hard to come up with it, but hey, as long as I enjoy it.
But for now, I am going to start this painting based on this sketch I came up during summer retreat. I started gesso-ing my canvas so I will have smoother and thicker surface but I just used a last drop of gesso so I need to buy new one so I can start this painting. This painting is based on Pixar movie 'Up' but in my way. I will post a picture once I finish sketching.
Meanwhile, I just started to sketch on 6" x 6" bristol paper with acrylics. I am thinking of doing series, but it's not turning out the way I kind of wanted. But they look still fine. I will post pictures soon. They are very, very simple. They were for fun anyways :)


WHAT ELSE...
I think that's it. Nothing special, just working as usual, chillin' with friends, try to draw as much as I can, get inspired, etc.
OH, and I turned in my pieces for this art contest, I think semi-finalist list is going to be up in less than a week. I hope I can make it. OH MY GOD. Please pray for me. Once that happens and end up being part of 3 finalists, I will be in happiest moment of my life.

Eww. I just heard some woman throwing up outside of my apartment. I hope she's okay, or better not throw up near anyone's door. That would be so gross.

Anyways, I will come back (hopefully, or better be) and post some drawings and paintings, and blah.
Good night!
