My Black Cat

This is my cat, Fuku. Years ago, she came to our place from nowhere. 

Fuku means Good Luck in Japanese. Since people sometimes associate black cat with bad luck, we named her in order to get rid of this jinx from her :)

Logic will take you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere

They are my outcomes for 3 dimensional image making project. We were asked to chose one of given quotes and make some 3D object for it. As I was thinking about my quote, "Logic will take you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere", I came up with 4 different key words; doors, birds, telephone and traveling. 

Happy 2013

May this year bring love, hope and inspirations in your life!!

Merry Christmas!!!

The last project before christmas!

This uni project was the most interesting, but the most time-consuming one so far!!

EGAKU, Japanese charity committee

Christmas break is coming in one month!!

It will be so nice to spend christmas and new year with my family and old friends... cant wait!!
But before, I have to face the real. I still haven't finished many of projects our class went through... Today, I was trying a lot of different compositions for the Kelpie (water horse) project. To convince people that this creature really exists, I thought a poster of circus could be nice. In a circus, all the impossible things can be possible. I was really excited and took long time for the first one, thinking it would work well as a poster. But then I did different images and felt that the first one might be too busy. It's funny, the more I did experiments, the simpler those images became... As you can see from the last image...it is...minimal.
