I made some new paintings when I was in Tokyo which are going to a show in Chicago. ---> more info see last blog entryThey are quite big paintings, 18 by 24 inches.
Night on flower bed, feeding sunflowers and knitting rabbits whose eyes grow in the dark. The theme is "The Night in ToTai Island." Mysterious things happen when everyone is asleep, did you know???
hello!
I haven't updated this blog for a while.
I was in Japan for 2 months running away from NY snow, sipping tea and eating Mikan. Now I'm back in NY!
I'm in a 4 person show at Oh No! Doom Gallery in Chicago this March. I'm creating new pieces right now, I will update the images soon~
"Sugar N' Splice" March 5th- 26th The art of Jason Limon, Aya Kakeda, Jermiah Ketner, and Yoko d'Holbachieexhibit opening: Saturday, March 5th, 2011 6pm-10pm at OhNo!Doom Gallery 1800 N. Milwaukee Ave Chicago IL 60647 www.ohnodoom.com
And the second opening was at the my plastic heart gallery in lower east side.I love the name "my plastic Heart!"
My new works: My Lady of St. Craft series were shown! I had a quite tough time making those images. A lot of painting over and redrawing. But I really enjoyed painting those lace and yarn details. I think I will do more of that in the future!
some photos from the opening
Hi. last Friday I had 2 group shows openings in NYC.The first one was at the Da Gallery which is owned by non-profit organizations of Korean American Association Greater NY. 37 artists from around the world who create arts about unique human connection with the nature. I had an original silkscreen print of Cave seal and a girl. Here are some photos from the opening!

hello. My tiny books are done with Covers! :-)
I think my work can't be more bright and colorful as this one!This is for a "Post It" show at Giant Robot LA in Dec. Each artists have to use Post it as a base, I thought why not I go all the way with stationary?! So I got different sparkly stickers to play with, it was super fun project!

I've been working on little books for "the tiny too show" which opens in Dec,LA. They were looking for original art work that is smaller than 3 by 3 inches. So I decided to make a small fold out books. I haven't put the front and back covers yet, but here is the inside images. Making these books really made me miss creating hand made books! I think my next projects would be creating a tiny book store full of these!
top: "What's happening inside of the slug monster?"

Update on our Dali Dresses:
Ants have legs now!!! looks creepier, prefect for the Dali-ween :-)
We are now trying to figure out the construction of the Dali mustache. This time it will be skinny and long, so it will only covers our heads + since Dali mustache has a small gap in the middle, we are making 2 separate ones. Now do you have any suggestions how we can keep the mustache up??? that's our home work for today!
