Hello

I went on a vacation in Japan recently, and it was great!

It was exactly what I needed and I hope to go back again next year~ hehe :)

 

Now I know I haven't been updating this blog... Well that's about to change! I got tables for upcoming conventions so that means I'll be preparing for the con! it's never too early to start right?

Is it February already?

Right before the end of January I finished another set of commission, this one was especially challenging because it was supposed to be at night time.  In my original sketch I wanted to do lanterns instead of the glowing "fire fly" lights.  It was right after I put down the watercolors and realized it's going to be difficult to even show the lantern light with the trees in the background.  So I used gouache in the end to get what I wanted, which I think turned out nicely overall!   

Commission update

Oh hi there, I almost forgot about this little blog! 

We were at Anime Los Angeles (for the first time!) few weeks ago, it was very last minute notice so I was in a rush trying to prepare enough stuff for the con.  It was a great convention and everyone was so nice and friendly, I think we are likely to return next year :)  

These past few days I was working on two ACEO commission pieces, these were done in watercolor and colored pencils (fun!) and because the clients gave me a good description on what kind of illustration they want, the composition and design just came to me naturally.  

I have another commission I gotta work on, so I will update again when it's finished!

Happy New Year

Happy 2014! 

Over the break I finally got these done, the new calendars are now in my shop
