Drawing on my ArtBook 

I studied artworks of some of the famous artists who deeply influenced the world of arts in history. I made parody, and did some paintings by applying their styles.

I also studied some contemporary artists like 

Hayao Miyazaki, the animator who created My Neighbor Totoro and Spirited Away . 

Philippe Faraut, an American sculptor who made sculptures come to life by developing the most minute details that transformed a piece from basic portrait study to a universal commentary on the human spirit.

​

I hosted an art exhibition with other young artists in Beijing, China, 2012.

Blend some color you like on a glass surface. Use a roller to smooth the color, then press and roll on the carving block.

Put a piece of paper on the carving block. Add a rubber pad on top. It makes the paper stay tight with the block.  Adjust to a suitable height and apply pressure, so that the block can go through the etching press roller. Roll the whole block to the other side of the roller for a "test print".  

Carve the block again to make small adjustments on image details. Try to play with different colors and layers.   I used yellow and pink to create a sweet and sugary feeling.

Just a Second was the very first stop motion animation I've made for an independent project in my film class. I am pretty sure my next animation project will be even better since I got a much nicer camera and some California Sunshine in my studio :)
