I just finished this page as a first spread before she took a boat to come to America.
It is funny enough to put my character into Miss Eggplant.
She was so grumpy when she lived with other eggplants in the supermarket!
Four more spreads to go!.... :)Friday is the best day for working hard.... of course yes.!
but,.... :(
I always enjoy doing silkscreen, but the only problem is making me worn out like a sick person at the end of the day.
I've printed this page for two days, and felt real pain especially shoulders and arms. (and every single muscles...)
This page is going to be an exhibition to show at Broadway Gallery for the first two weeks of July called London Underground on BROADWAY, undergroundonbroadway.wordpress.com
After I finished printing this page, I got an e-mail from the curator Sophie.
She said she wants to use this page for the postcard for the show!!!
What a coincidence!! I'm so happy and hope she likes the changed color.
It is always nice to get along with other people at the print shop, but please please please leave me alone while I'm printing.
I can't be nice when you are asking some questions while I'm printing because the pigments are dried really quick, and I don't want to ruin my work.
And I can't really hear what you are asking because I only listen the sounds of squeeze...
If you've done silkscreen before, you might understand what I'm saying.
It is the most sensitive time for me.... :(
I'm happy with the color came out better than digital work, and hope it fits well with other pages.!!
:)
Here is the double sized page that will be silk screened.
Folded center page made me excited to imagine the finished book.
Five more spreads to go.
Thanks to Soner On to be a Broadway boy!
He saved at least 900 animals' lives for 10 years being Vegan. :)
I only saved 90 animals so far...
Go Go Vegan!!! lol
It's a ridiculous story.
yes, it is.
:)
I've been lazy for about two weeks after summer vacation started.
But I thought that I deserved to get some rest for a while, and it was enough to make me boost to enjoy working again.
Here is the process of Playboy Magazine which is offered from school, and don't know my work can get in the magazine or not.
Either way, I pretty enjoyed reading the story and made a new editorial piece.
Drawing ONLY Eggplant girl and American Boys for a semester made me confuse creating a new illustration, but I realized that inking something made me really happy naturally. :)
(That's very dork...yeah...)
I'll post the finished piece up , and cross my fingers.
;)
Finished piece. Left guy has a weirdly short arm...lol
I used to use pencils for sketches. Marcos revised my sketch with pink. :)
A Rabbit in a Human Coat, 2006
Reference photos Marcos sent to me.
If you met someone and he/ she gave you a big inspirations for your dream, you are probably a lucky person.
For me, I can directly say one of MY teachers who made me feel like a lucky person is Marcos Chin.
This is the first work that I did for his class in Fall 2007.
It's funny because at that time, I had no interests of Vegetarian/Vegan things, but I did Vegetarian Tribal Gangsters and A Rabbit in a human coat not on purpose.
Now, I no longer want to paint my work, but looked at old stuff made me smile for a while and remind me the valuable memories.
I think my goody- two-shoes personality was a good match with his class.
When I got this e-mail with revising sketch of mine, I felt like I already found a genuine teacher of my life.
I'd never met a teacher who revised and suggested, and sent reference photos for my work.
this looks great - but now it's too much "gangster" and not enough
"tribal"...
i attached your sketch below, but added a few more things...
maybe the 2 guys are wearing more "vegetarian tribal accessories"?
or
perhaps give the guy on the left, more necklaces... or have the both
of them with some marks on their faces, like war paint.
i thought it might be funny to have the guy on the right holding some
sort of club - but maybe it looks like a mix between a large stick
and broccoli..
i love the birds in the sky as well... it makes the city look sort of
like a jungle...
also think of the environment and how you can make it more "tribal"
also...
anyway, you can take these suggestions and start working on the final.
This was first, but I worked much harder week by week for the rest of his class until the end.
I always looked forward to every 12 o'clock on Thursdays, and really enjoyed every single assignment he gave us.
Some people asked me if they took his class could change their lives too, but I'd say it all depends on how much you did for the class.
If you spent most of your time hanging out, dating, drinking, and shopping, and expected to your teachers change your life, I'm sure you are still a big baby.
Teachers never change your life. It all depends on you.
Color separations. Even though they're all black, I could imagine the color after they printed. The top one is going to be Pink. 
Love love love Grey that I made! no white and black in it! Making cool Grey color was the most difficult thing for me for the past two years! :P and now I can see myself as an expert of making the awesome Grey which is my favorite color! :)
While I was printing, I mostly put (or threw away) some color test papers and trial squeezes on the floor. (and I cleaned completely after I finished as Goody Two Shoes. ) 
Pink color separations printed!
Green color printed! I realized that the boy's hair couldn't be the same green because he is Blondy Mr. Bartlett! so it made me make another yellow separation after this. The unexpected situations sometimes happened in the World of Silkscreen which I SHOULD love... :P
