Saturday

I know I haven't been updating my blog, because:
1. I am swamped at work and when I go home I just want to rest.
2. I've been trying to eat healthy and prepare the meals myself whenever I can. So when I am not resting, I am cooking. (Maybe I can post some recipes instead.)
3. The weather has been so nice outside, and I want to play outdoors instead of stay in and doodle.

Still I will post something when I have it. Meanwhile, here is a photo from yesterday. It's a shot of an alley at Lawrence, Kansas.



My band went into the studio in Lawrence all day yesterday to do the final mixing on our second EP. Here is Mike working his magic in the studio.

It's raining on my birthday...

It has been raining every other day this week. Well, not just rain, but thunder, lightning, hail, tornado warnings... you name it, we've got it. (I was caught in really bad hail and heavy rain while driving on the highway this Tuesday; it was really scary.) So I was not surprised that I got another round of thunderstorm as my birthday gift today. My girlfriends took me out for a very lovely breakfast dinner, and toward the end of our meal, all of a sudden, hell broke loose and the restaurant lost power so we had to finish our food in the dark. (Too bad they could still run the credit cards even without the electricity...heehee.) Definitely it's going to be one of the birthday I won't forget. :)

Happy Girl

Ramon's watercolor is the bomb! I am loving it!!!

Happy Test

I painted some backgrounds using the watercolors Ramon gave me. Here is a little something i did using the textures.

Thanks!!!

My friend Ramon gave me a whole box of his watercolors last week because he is moving away to a new area at work. I've never used this kind of watercolors; they are so bright and got me really excited. I think I am gonna try to paint some background textures for future use.
Thanks, Ramon!!!

Today's crazy doodles

My eyes were so dry and I couldn't see the computer monitor to work... so I doodled instead.
