color palettes and paint brush plushies

December 9, 2009

mixing palette + paint brush plushies set

i made these for the “no more monkeys jumping on the bed” plush & paint group show currently showing at monkeyhouse toys & art gallery in silver lake, los angeles.  please come by if you are in the area.  there are tons of awesome pieces in the show. :)  and as some of you know, monkeyhouse toys & art gallery will be closing their retail space after this month.  i’m really sad to hear.  please continue to support them via their webstore.  they will always have a special place in my heart.  the monkey on my plush palette is the logo for monkeyhouse.  the idea behind this piece is that even after monkeyhouse closes its retail door, they will still live on forever through joyful rainbows of their love for the art.  and of course, as in all my pieces, there’s always that red or pink heart somewhere. ^^  i especially love the little paint brush.  :)  if you’re interested in my piece, please contact info@monkeyhousetoys.com, thanks. :)

lunar-tree in a cup of leaves ^_~

i finally had a chance to get online, and got around to posting this overdue photos of my humble custom lunartik in a cup of leaves.  i definitely think i went abit overboard with the custom, but, like everything i make…be in crafts or clothing, i’ve always really enjoyed working on every single piece of them, and the creating/designing process is always a joy. :)  hope you like it, and that it’ll make you smile too just looking at it. :)  the awesome tea tour party had made its first stop in london (until sep 7) at “the forbidden planet“. the next tour date will be on sep 17-28 at “outland gallery” in amsterdam (matt jones will be there on sep 19 for the signing, so please come say hi to him if you’re in the area, and check out the amazing custom tea cups by all the other really talented artists! ^^) xoxo!

custom “lunartik in a cup of tea” sneak peek

August 16, 2009

custom "lunartik in a cup of tea" sneak peek...

if you have not heard of the wonderful and super talented matt jones (aka lunartik jones), you gotta check out his amazing work!!   matt did an awesome custom resin lunartik in a cup of tea for me few years ago, and he was so sweet to include a really cute painting with the custom. :)  so few months ago, when matt invited me to join him and a group of amazing artists to custom a diy lunartik in a cup of tea for his tea tour and toy release party, i am utterly happy and humbly honored to get on board on this fun project! :)  here is a little teaser sneak peek of my custom.  i will post a few more detailed sneak peek photos of the finished custom soon. :)  though in between this project, i had a little personal matter to attend to and had to be away for almost two weeks, but i really really enjoyed working on this custom and it put a smile back on my face whenever i looked at it.  hope you will like it when you get a chance to see it at the tea tour party (or via photos if you can’t make it there, like myself :p)  thank you so much again, matt, for including me on your tea touring party!! :)  xoxo ^^
