菜箸。竹馬のように乗り回すのは結構大変。コツは正しいお箸の持ち方をすること。

Another old stuff I found in the attic

ロンドンにいたときに試作したものです。

今まですっかり忘れていたけれど、

偶然、屋根裏部屋でみつけました。

作っていたときはとっても楽しかったな〜。

This is what I made as a research for the final project when I was in London.

I accidentally found it in the attic today 

and all the fun memories from old days came back to me :)

Green Tea Raw Chocolate, so good!!

I'm gonna redo the typography later, but yeah, it's one of my favorite recipes ever!!!
You should try it!!! So green, so fresh, so rich. . . so spring!!!

My "the Owl and the Pussycat"

Yesterday, we had the crit for our final project, illustration for short stories.

This project was quite free and I enjoyed making sweets for children's recipe book, but I also had difficult time with photography and editing. (I am still not happy enough with the composition!)

But thanks for this project, I learnt a lot of new things...

Other classmates' works were brilliant!! So many different ideas, techniques!

ok, time to blog!!!

 Haven't uploaded my blog for ages...but it doesn't mean I wasn't doing creative works!!

I've been so so busy, doing 3 different projects for uni, and some other personal projects. The photos above are taken for one of uni projects which is illustration for a short story. Yes, "illustration". Who says you can only draw with pen and ink to tell a story??

 The given story I chose is "the Owl and the Pussycat". Since this is nonsense poem which is about the owl and the pussycat getting married, I decided to create crazy nonsense sweets for their wedding. I made 4 different scenes with different sweets for each, and took about 500 photos... But I strongly feel I need to know more technique for photograph...

Anyway, I will chose nicer of all, and edit to make a recipe book for children. I may add some hand drawings on the images... 

Cinnamon and sea salt hot chocolate!!

carrot soup!

Mr. Hedgehog

am I contributing to commercial stuff too much? but it's fun!

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day!

Food? Art??

Guess what's inside the box...

Chocolate couple! The sweetest couple ever!!
They are for my school project, "drawing and reproduction". The assignment was to produce multiple copies of drawings .
The characters whom I made chocolates and boxes of are originally from my another project, "100 drawings of silence". Because their faces were serious, and even sad from the expression of silence, I wanted to make them happy. That's why I decided to use chocolate for this project...
I used the idea of stencil to make lines on chocolates. It worked quite well!
And of course they are eatable! Yum yum.
