Hi, friends! I have some very exciting news! I’m in Vogue Girl Korea! Aw, so fun! I’m delighted to be featured along with my friends Julia Frakes, Jane Keltner De Valle of Teen Vogue, and Tommy Ton, as well as Leith Clark of the wonderful Lula Magazine, Anne-Catherine Frey, and Prabal Gurung. What an honor!The issue was featuring vacations for summer. I sent a picture of me drawing in my friend Alice‘s parents’ house on the north shore of the island of Oahu. I was with a group of my very close friends and after a long day in the ocean and the sun I came inside to rest and draw in my sketchbook. : ) Thank you so much to Vogue Girl for including me!

Hello! Sorry for how long its been since my last post. I’ve been working like crazy on the story my brother and I are writing. Currently sorting inspiration images for locations and characters. Its been very intense! This painting is from my Character Sketchbook and is based on a photo by Annie Leibovitz.

Inspiration Friday
Grey Shades of Romantic Skies
Happy Inspiration Friday my Friends.
How did the week go for you?
I’m pretty exhausted today,but it should be alright because i have a pretty laid back day. I’m working on concept art for my brother and my story book we are writing. I seriously am dying for you to read it, but we aren’t as far as i was hoping we would be. It’s hard because we both have jobs other than writing… so we have been sneaking writing sessions in on late nights and weekends. Hope you have a day full of Inspiration :)

Sculpture
My First Sculpture!
Hey hey hey Friends, how are you? So i finally finished up my first ever Sculpture! I thought it was only fitting that i sculpted a garment of my favorite designer Alexander McQueen‘s Fall 2009 collection. My hands are covered in blisters, but all in all, i really like how it turned out. I learned so much making it. My only regret is that I didn’t build a bigger version of it, because I really wanted to smooth out places of her face but it just was too small to get the hard to reach places. So whatcha think? I definitely want to do more sculptures. I had alot fun. Other than that, i had an amazing weekend hanging out with my friends Eisley & Christie Dupree band, and the whole gang;) I haven’t seen them for about 6 months, so it was great hanging out with them. :) Check out both their albums, they are amazing! P.s. Flare magazine was kind enough to interview me, if you want to read it go to
