hello,

i usually cook for myself most of the meals through out the day, but when i'm lazy i usually go for bento boxes from nijiya or marukai.
they are very economical and generous with the volume.
and every so often i sketch them.

hello,

i hope everyone enjoyed their chocolates and sweets today.

for me, i was caught off guard by a small unexpected visitor....
you might recognize him from the manga, number five by taiyo matsumoto.
and my little surprise guest didn't seemed to mind my messy studio, so he decided to stay here with the rest of the gang for now....

here is his picture.

step by step...

it's hard to believe the holidays are only couple month away....
time never seems to lose its momentum and speed.

lately my work has been a little slower than usual.
i don't know what is throwing my rhythm off from painting but i'm learning to cope with the situation.

i have been sculpting a bit more and been sketching to keep me occupied.

here is the recent sketch that i just finished:

untitled sketch, 2009

and sculpture that i'm working:

these are old tetsuwan atomu(astro boy) heads that i'm yoskafying...
