“Requiem Pagoda” was created for “The Good Death” art show at Sketchpad Gallery. It’s funny how things turn out. This piece is more personal, as my Grandmother just passed away a couple of weeks ago, and I was then asked to participate in a show about Death–this piece became a homage to her. In Chinese cultures, death is a very taboo subject, but I wanted to honor the spirit of her. Taoist legends say that when someone dies, a crane whisks the spirit off into the afterlife. My view of death is not of fear, but acceptance; in my grandmother’s case, a bit of comfort from suffering. I’ve always thought water is a source of beauty and calm; after some time, feelings of grief become a quietness and reverence. The water represents purity, a cleansing of the soul, and the white chrysanthemum flowers in the frame are symbolic of death. The moon gate in this piece is simply a portal into the afterlife. The colors are kept simple, almost monochromatic so the viewer could soak in the details and subject.
Here are some of my art pieces that will be displayed at the Wonderland SF Gallery on Saturday, September 16 for the “Dreaming of Better Times” art show. Sooooooooo excited!!!

Happy Halloween! “Skull Goddess” is an exploration into the lighter side of the macabre. It’s inspired by my recent trip to Southeast Asia, primarily Bayon of Angkor Wat, Cambodia, and the White Temple of Thailand, which depicts modern scenarios of good vs. evil. I created this via the usual pen/ink and graphite media, with a smidget of digital coloring. The pigments are kept to a minimum to highlight the details, but to also echo the stone carvings of the ancient temples.
This piece is available as an 8.5″ x 11″ art print HERE ON ETSY
