Mural

The space that I choose to put my painting is in a blank wall in between my kitchen and the living room. The wall is pretty empty with only a thermometer and a light switch. Across from the wall, there’s is a window; sunshine usually reflexes on the wall.

Three Books from Massart

An Exhibition of Limited Edition Books by Angela Lorenz

The way that the pages are connected together is very interesting to me. Also, the shape of the pages is not a conventional rectangle but a square.

10 Ways to Meditate by Paul Reps

The contrasting of big images and small description words is why I really like this book. The mental process of me viewing a new page would be: the images catch my eye and then I see small text at the bottom of it.

Before and After Art/Life Counseling by Linda Montano

This kind of style makes it looks like a children’s book in some way. It might look crude and simple at first sight but I like this kind of style.
