Another day during lunch break





I came across these beautiful sakuras nearby my house when i was taking out my trash. Was luckly that i took a photo of it because by the time i got home during the evening the wind was so strong that it blew most of it away.

New Zealand Tattoo Supply



Something i've design for a catalogue cover for NEW ZEALAND TATTOO SUPPLY. I scanned in the illustration and played around with the layout. Still in progress of touching up a few things.



This is a divider for the New Zealand Tattoo Supply Catalogue. This is my fav one.

Spring 07'



Spring has always been one of my favorite season throughout the year. This is what i think about spring when it comes to my mind. Sometimes its hard to capture the most beautiful moments without a camera by your side but by capturing it with your mind and drawing it out always turns out different from what you imagine.
