Watercolor Travel Journal
During my short trip to Italy, I also made a first attempt to keep a watercolor travel journal. Though I didn’t fill up the whole sketchbook like I hoped, I managed to get a few fun paintings in there.
Studies from the old masters
Went to a wonderful trip to Venice & Florence of Italy last month.
Also spend a few hours here and there to study some of the old masters’ work and did some quick sketches.
Advent Calendar Doodles 2014
During the month of advent, I had joined a couple friends to do a doodle a day based on a set of randomized words. It was a fun experience.
Color pencil Flowers
Based off photographs I had taken of flowers, I’ve created this set of color pencil sketches.
Photography gallery
Just finished creating a gallery site for my photography only

I also uploaded photos taken at the Renaissance Faire on there.
Botanic Garden Photo shoot
Spent a few hours at the Chicago’s Botanic Garden yesterday and shot some pictures.
Out of the 300+ pictures, I was lucky to have a few nice shots 🙂
Photography assignment
I’m taking a photography class the last few months, and this week’s assignment is showcasing five type of light. As a 3D artist, I appropriately choose to use “The Teapot” as my subject to do my lighting test~!!
Art nights
Since last year, a few of my art friends have been gathering at my apartment every other week for an art night. It’s a good chance for us to do art projects that we couldn’t get to, or simply draw and sketch for a few hours. Throughout the year, I’ve been taking the chance to do some animal sketches 🙂

My first 3d print!
To make our wedding cake more unique, I have created this model based off our Chinese zodiac animals – Dragon and Mouse on top of a pile of our treasures. I sent to print in polyamide by i.materialise.
Here is a photo of the caketopper –
Renders of the 3d model
And of course, it’s not a good caketopper if it’s not on top of a delicious cake~!
