I'm finally smelling turpentine in my nostrils!

HOORAY! I'm finally get to take a class from the master, ZhaoMing Wu! It has been couple of years since I had turp in my nostrils... I'm out of practice :( but hopefully I'll be able to produce better work at the end of this year!

back... into GRAD SCHOOL!!! Apologies for the lack of posting, if anyone of you are still following my humble blog... Lots have happened during the span of 2008 and rolled into 2009, but I'm really excited to have matters resolved. With the help of very kind people and sponsors I'm able to refine my skills back at AAU.
THANK YOU for believing in me!

The rest of 2009 is going to be a busy one as a tutor at AAU, so why not post a piece of one of my old classwork in Color & Design, all done in gouche for the amusement of my students :D

and... the Yoga Studio which I practice at and also volunteering at has kindly offered their wall space for a showing of my work sometime this year =) I'm keeping my fingers cross for that and promise to post an update soon!

I am truly grateful, really.
