Untitled 2009
I’ve decided that I’m gonna post up a sketch every Tuesday, hence the name Sketch Tuesday (not to be confused with Sketch Tuesdays, an event at 111 Minna in SF.. though I’ve been to the event a few times and it’s fun.. what’s not to love about sketching with a bunch of people and beers?)
..All you need is a professional prop department and lots and lots of time.
I’ve finally opened up my shop! (yes a week later than planned, oops!) The three prints that are available in there right now are Reflecting on Peculiar Events, Lotus Blossom, and Nema Enters Slumberland.

Found this haunting little lady sketch in my studio the other day. Graphite on paper, 2009.
Weird fact.. When I was a little kid (8-10 years old), I used to doodle creepy faces all over the paper bag wrappings of my text books, just to try to freak myself out. The moments where I succeeded (freak outs, that is), I would then scribble the faces out and rub my pencil in deep until they were unrecognizable, so that they could never creep me out again. Aside from that, I also loved doodling cuddly teddy bears. LOL it just doesn’t make sense.
My boyfriend put me on to this video… OH and how I love!! The movement, typography and rubbery illustrations capture my heart. <3 Dope concept.
Inception–everyone’s talking about it, and if you’re one of the few who say you didn’t like it, I can’t say that I believe you. But let me tell you one thing, I haven’t geeked out on a movie like this…ever! Well not since Avatar.. 
For someone who is obsessed with surreal visuals, paradoxes, puzzles, and well, just dreaming in general, this movie enchanted me.

Nom Nom Truck is a tasty little Vietnamese Food Truck in LA which serves up delicious Banh Mi sandwiches, and it was one of the first trucks after Kogi BBQ to help pioneer the latest food truck craze. It’s owned and operated by two of my very good friends, Misa Chien and Jennifer Green, and since its inception they have been featured all over the place, in Sunset Magazine, Travel + Leisure Magazine, and much more! A little more than a year ago, I helped Misa and Jen to develop Nom Nom’s brand identity. I designed their trademark monster mascot (the Nomster, get it? tee hee), their logo, truck wrap designs, and their web site.
I was featured in the Crave LA guidebook to female-owned businesses in LA! View my page in the book after the jump.
