New illustration series

Monday, February 25th, 2008

I didn’t mentioned it yet, but I have started to upload my new illustrations with flowers since last month. This small project is called “Ikebana series”. Last month, January was the flower of New year. That was Matsu (pine tree). This month, February’s flower is Tsubaki (Camellia).
I will update in every month to show my Ikebana illustrations. Enjoy!

Stefan Segmeister show at Deitch project

Tuesday, February 19th, 2008

It was a good show. I missed the opening, but it was actually nice to see his works without any fuss. He developed his typographical experiments to the next level. It had a couple of interactive type experiments at the show, too.

The guy who sat next to me at Chinese new year’s dinner had a funny tattoo.
I think all people who can read must laugh or surprise because I never seen anybody having this kinda direct meaning tattoo on the wrist! Guess what the meaning of these Chinese characters~
