Wait. My last post was June 2013?
That's bad...

So..
Happy belated Hollaween...belated Christmas...and belated New year!!

What's new?

My first Pop-Up book was published around the Christmas time (2013). The book turns out looking so amazing. I had so much fun working on this book with the amazingly talented artist Yevgeniya Yeretskaya and the help from the lovely A. D. Monika Brandrup.

The word Heights reminds me of the high ceiling of this piano bar, it is also reminds me the scale of it. it is a 11 X 19" paper cut illustration done by me. I hand cut and glue every pieces and it was a fun process :) hope you will like it.
