Gaia is our only home, and the key to her future lies in our hands. If we sustain her well, we can keep her doors open to reveal her beauty, and invite the neighboring sunlight to accompany us. Key modeled in FormZ. Everything else are photos put together in PhotoShop. I used my Sun behind the clouds as the background for this piece This work has been featured in: / Current Issues / Colour Me a Rainbow / Alphabet Soup

completed 2004 age 18 Everyday we see so much of the world around us. But how often do we take the time to explore one in detail? There are, for example, many varieties of trees, and within each tree you can see a variety of leaves, and in each leaf a variety of color. Framing a particular moment draws more attention to its detail. Thank you everyone for your comments; they are very inspiring. I even see comments drawing on current issues; which is great. Medium: Watercolors I can’t remember what brand of paint I used; but the pigment was in a tube as opposed to being a dry type that needed to be wetted to use. The background was first wetted, that painted onto, while the subject, I painted onto directly to the dry surface, which I believe was 30 pound paper.

I drew this with pencil on a piece of paper in my sketchbook. I referred to a photo of my mother as a 10 years old, and somehow it ended up looking more like me. Many people mistake this to be my self-portrait. It’s funny that it turned out this way. Many people tell me I resemble my mother, and I don’t see that so much. Even as I was looking at my mother’s past photo, I wasn’t thinking that she looked like me, but in the end I see a portrait which looks like me. I drew this during my summer after grade 11 (age 17). At the time my mother was in Japan and I was missing her. Some photo reference of my mother and I. Do we look alike? This work has been featured in: / Pencil Drawing

Completed 2004 age 18 I was inspired by the Japanese artist Hiroshi Senju, who tends to limit his colors in his paintings. Sometimes he paints an image where the background is the complimentary colors of the subject. His style is simple but at the same time intense, where the foreground stands out from the complimentary background. Medium: Watercolors This is a painting done in my sketchbook. The paper isn’t watercolor paper, but at least more durable than regular printing paper.

Completed in 2004, age 17 This is a slightly cropped version of the original, due to the limits of my camera. My original signature got cropped out so I had to insert a new one in photoshop; in the original it is not actually located there. Original size: (40” x 30”) The two subjects are posed in similar positions, each having a dark, circular central focus., Both images have lines above and surrounding the centres, which draw attention towards the centres. The vertical composition help strenghten the feeling of height given by the vertical lines. Both subjects are organic, however one, the eye, has straight lines and geometrical shapes, while the rose has curvy lines and organic shapes. In the eye, the centre is literally dark, while in the flower the darkness is created by shadows.

5 yen coins are typically given as donations at a Japanese Shinto Shrine because of the their hole, which is said to allow the wish to go through. There are several other cultural significance regarding the 5 yen coin. For example, 5 yen in Japanese is “Go-en,” which is the same as karma in Japanese (although written differently). Here the wish portrayed is the key to peace. The key I have here is one I made out of a wood block when I was 17. I made it to remind myself to work towards my goals and aspirations; it is my “Key To The Future”. Here it is the key to peace and the shrine is the door to that peace. The key is on a loop looping through the hole of the coin. Flying through the coin I also have my little folded peace crane I made not too long ago (Apr. 6, 08) out of a 6×6mm piece of paper (also portrayed in Born from Fingers and Born from the Pinky) “I shall write peace on your wings, and you shall fly all over the world” / (Sadako Sasaki – Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes) I could’ve done a computer generated key too, then it would’ve look more tidy than this one, however this image has more personal meaning for myself by using objects I made with my own hands. I like doing things by hand more, although it takes longer. I’ve played around with the settings of each layer in photoshop, and I’m having a hard time decided what looks best.

The original photo belongs to another fellow Redbubbler who invited me to draw some of her eagle shots after I drew her Baby. I started this long ago, but then I had put it off for awhile, and decided to come back to it last night/this morning. At some point I got carried started shading here and there without looking at the original photo, so the bottom portion is different than the original :P Ths original: /

Based on this photo: / This was during my stay in Japan. On this day there was a typhoon to be expected so instead of going out, my landlady and I visited her friend Ayumi. This is her cat Hotaru; her name means “firefly” in Japanese. Even though it was chilly outside, I felt warm with little Hotaru sleeping in my lap; my little firefly… Medium: red lead This work has been featured in Colour Me a Rainbow Works by Category / Featured/Popular / Origami/Ori-plastic / Drawings,Paintings and Graphics / Flowers, Trees and Plants / Water and Waterscapes / Scenery / Light, Shadow, and Reflections / Living Creatures / Human Portrait / Japanfluence / Canada / Still Life / More kitties: / More cuties: For more images please visit the category links at the top.

For drawing day Medium: marker, pens, pencil crayons and chalk pastel. I was inspired by the Japanese artist Hiroshi Senju, who tends to limit his colors in his paintings. Sometimes he paints an image where the background is the complimentary colors of the subject. His style is simple but at the same time intense, where the foreground stands out from the complimentary background. This drawing however is different from his style; I have done another painting before which is closer to his style: As for the form of the tree, my inspiration came from this: More from Drawing Day: / This work has been featured in: / Color Me a Rainbow

How I wish I could go back to unstressful days :P Well the matters stressing me out lately I cannot resolve during the weekends so I decided to finish this up. This playground is located in my neighborhood. It has changed a lot over the years. I was maybe a year old in the picture so the frame, depicting the playground today, shows how much it changed about 21 years later: There are more trees planted, the slide has changed, and the swings have been moved (if you look closely at the top right you can see the top of the swings in my past photo disappering. And here is a poem written by Dawnsky2 for this piece: It seems like only yesterday, / when I walked the park as a child. / Running carefree, / innocence and youthfulness. / Oh, how life speeds past you. / I sit on the bench that was once, not there, / if I remember, / only bushes laden with lilac. / The old climbing frame has gone, / replaced by color and new. / The swings are better now, / than then. / I don’t remember all this greenness, / with time, there’s so much more green now, / than then. / I gaze passed the play area / to the small field. / A girl with long dark hair plays / with a brightly colored ball. / She throws it to another, / she laughs, / she runs and jumps. / Her father waits for her play, / he sits nearby smiling at his child. / The girl stops and stands still, / she turns to look at me. / her eyes are innocent / of a life not yet fully lived. / I know this child, / this child is me, / she is young and happy. / Oh, how life speeds past you. / I am old, / but I’m happy.

Secret is out! This is how I do it; I cast myself a really big hand then place a piece of origami on it! Okay, obviously I’ve photoshpped myself in there; I know it’s not perfect, but I really should be getting school work done right now :P. If I spend too much time I’ll fall behind ~ But hey, on the bright side; by making it an obvious edit, people won’t start thinking this is actually how I do my origami shots; I do fold tiny. This image was just for fun; and I wanted to put up a new profile pic that says something about myself. The original photo I used for this is my Born from the Cell, where I folded a crane out of a 3×3mm piece of trace paper.

Self-portrait graphic YES! I made it in time for the challenge! So I haven’t been active very much here generally because of school but still come online to see what’s happening. When this challenge was launched I was busy with a deadline (which just ended this morning). I did this just today after getting some catch-up sleep from pulling an all nighter. The past few days I’ve been constantly staying up late until early in the morning; going home after the sun has risen. As unpleasant as it is to have a strange sleeping routine; I do get to see some beautiful morning skies :P So after a full day of working in a dry building with air ducts rattling over my head, the moment I step out after sunrise is a rather sensual moment; which inspired me to do this. The background is a photo I took in Paesteum, Italy during the term I was studying in Rome. I haven’t uploaded that here yet because I still have a lot of pics from Europe which I have to sort and decide which will go up. The scene in the bottle I took on the same day I took this
