I drew this digital oil painting on an iPad supported by a (newly purchased) French easel, with which I plan to try physical (pencil, oil, and acrylic) medium next.

Footprints in the yard
Some contractor left in the yard a trash bag containing some food, which was then attacked by some wild animal, probably raccoon(s) based on the damage and the footprints which in turn inspired this motion graphics.

Cemetery
I like to walk in a cemetery; it feels serene, solemn, and prompts me to ponder life from a different perspective.

Miner 6748
One lesson I learned from practicing portrait sketching: start from people we are not personally familiar with and gradually try close friends and family members, so that we can focus more on general practices at the start and consider specific features later on with more skills and experiences.
I spotted this photo in the photography section of SFMOMA and decided to sketch this anonymous person.
With only one device with me I couldn’t really draw from a reference photo, so I drew over instead.

Minna and New Montgomery
After visiting the photography section of SFMOMA while on the way for dinner pick up at North India, I noticed a street sleeper near the intersection of Minna and New Montgomery. I then spotted two more similarly-shaped entities nearby, which, upon closer examination, were a blanket and a group of trash bags at the back door of Henry’s Hunan.
I took their photos and composited into one afterwards.
