Sketchbook

Oh I feel so bad about neglecting this blog. Though I would love to write every couple of weeks. Just to write about my journey with illustration, a wife and mom. But I must admit that I am not that good in writing as English is my second language.  But really I want to try more writing, even if sometimes I wonder who will read about my blog LOL

Anyway, I have had a wonderful life and year. It doesn't mean my life is always wonderful as few things I have been experiencing some ups and downs in my life as well. But I will count everything as a blessing to teach me to tough.

This year I got a new sketchbook, I have been focusing doing more and more illustration digitally rather than on paper. The bad thing about it is I hardly let my creativity run free. I often get stuck doing things perfectly which in fact there is no prefect. So with my sketchbook it will allow me to just sketching and run loose with idea without worry to be prefect, or worry what color I will be using etc. Just drawing and coloring until I see the outcome. I dedicate this sketchbook to my husband and son who are in the first place supporting what I am doing.

Here are some of my sketching with mix media, water colors, markers and color pencils.

BOO!

Here is a story from halloween. I wish I could post this on time. Our Halloween day is just like most other american families that have kids, my son chose to dress up like a ninja. We did carve a pumpkin with my husbands help.

While I was working in illustrator for the halloween, I also made a homemade apple pie. One thing that I love the most about fall season is the chilly weather it is just so good to smell the aroma of baking. 

Enjoy your fall! 

DIY {recycle} table.

Yeah… it has been a while since I’ve write anything on my blog. Partly because I’m unsure what to do with this blog yet. I would like to post things that I love, find, cook, make and draw. But so far I can’t find time to sit down and focus on it. I have a little time now I am trying….

Ok, about DIY table. I find my hand hurts a lot when I type or edit pictures on my old computer table. Just because my table was to small with the little keyboard drawer. I can’t rest my arm on the table so when I typed only my palm touched the table and it caused problems.

I wanted to buy a brand new big computer table but really I don’t want to spend money.  I remember I have an old computer table in the basement. Lucky me I have a hubby who likes to fix things. He fixed the table. I cleaned and painted it white. Then I bought a 6 cube  white organizer from Target. It goes nicely with the table. I am pretty happy with the outcome, especially now I can rest my arm on the table when I draw or type.
