I created this piece, available as an art print. However, for Wonderland SF Gallery’s last show, I wanted to do a one-of-a-kind art embellishment piece on giclee, incorporating the gorgeous Blue Swallowtail Butterfly and a miniature resin sculpture of a deer skull, painted with silver leaf and acrylics.

I’ve been fascinated by the nightclubs/lounges of San Francisco Chinatown from the 1930s to 1950s, featuring Chinese American caberet performers, entertainers and burlesque shows. Jadin Wong was one of the featured dancers who eventually went to Hollywood, became a comedian and created her own casting company, battling stereotypes along the way. This portrait was based on a NSFW beautiful portrait, but I wanted to make her a little more family-friendly, though modernizing her with a fun dragon tattoo and an elaborate floral headdress, of roses, rather than traditional peonies.

This tribal panda pattern was super fun to do, combining realism with tribal abstract patterns for Chinese Lunar New Year promotions.
This cute sleeping pig is nestled in peony petals, lost in happy thoughts of the new year 🙂

These pieces are for the upcoming Cosmos Art Show at Sysygy Coop on January 31st. I wanted to focus on Asian mythological goddess, Ching-E (with her pet rabbit as a shoulder tattoo) and Amaterasu.

I’m normally very shy to be in front of the camera, but Yellow Bubbles made me felt as ease. I made a fun skull headdress and we shot at a local park in Castro Valley, CA. The duo sister team of Temira Decay and Ambery Cherrybomb of Spoiled Cherry were super talented and fun to work with. The photos eventually made it to Guilded Magazine for their Warrior themed issue (43, Vol 2).

Silver Rhino Skull Beetle Vinyl Art
This is a mixed media piece was originally created with pen/ink on paper with digital coloring. It was then attached to card stock, sealed (6 layers), cut out and attached to the painted vinyl record. The rhino beetle (from sustainable insect farm in Asia) was painted, glued and sewn to the record. I then attached a few black rhinestones to the piece and applied resin to finalize it all. A lot of work, but very happy with how it turned out.
Seraphim Scorpion on Vinyl Record
This piece was also created with the same method as the Beetle Vinyl piece, with pen drawing, ornaments and resin. The Scorpion is a beautiful Blue Forest Scorpion specimen (also from a sustainable insect farm in Malaysia), painted silver, purple with little black glitter ornaments. The slight change in color makes the arachnid less menacing and approachable.
