challenge from kai martin

prompt: There is a large birthday cake monster with spider legs chained to the ground devouring the birthday boy who is still clutching his presents. Dancing around the event in a circular fashion much like a jungle tribe ritual are a bunch of dinner plates and utensils with arms, legs, spears, bone nose piercings, and tribal tattoos. Perhaps throw any background items or random things that would help set the setting and atmosphere like grass huts or a fire pit, your choice there.

(I am challenging you to come up with the craziest image prompt that you can possibly think of and I promise that I will attempt to draw it. try me.)

UCSD installation


I was on campus at UCSD and saw this on the way to work. I wish something like this would happen everywhere I went.

drawing with maggie au

This weekend I went home for an early Chinese New Years dinner. I had to chance to draw with my little cousin, Maggie Au. My cousin has a little sketch pad where she draws pictures of her family. She drew a picture of her mom, her dad, about 10 pictures of our grandma. She's definitely going to be a great artist one day.

Maggie drew a picture of me while I was drawing a picture of her.

This is a collaboration we did together.
