Centennial

I’ve been selected as a First Prize Winner for the National Park Service and National Park Foundation’s Centennial Project! This means I get an annual pass to all U.S. national parks in 2016! And it’s all because you voted for a drawing I made when I was 15. Thank you! I love you!

On the subject of travel, in case you missed the previous post, I’ve returned from a family trip to Hong Kong, Cambodia, and Thailand, and uploaded my photos pretty much all over the place. (And on the local level, here are my recommendations for Chicago art exhibitions to check out in February.)

And on the subject of personal artwork, I haven’t forgotten my Scribble Sunday series. For now, you can visit this Tumblr tag, this Pinterest board, and Instagram for past doodles and sketches of mine. (And! I’m continuing to accept drawing commissions.)

Happy Chinese New Year!

11 Chicago art gallery exhibitions to see in February

I’m back from my travels! (First thing my parents and I do upon returning from our trip to Southeast Asia? Go to our local Japanese joint where most of the waitstaff is Thai Chinese and bond with them over all the places we visited in Bangkok. That diaspora.) I have some photos up on Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, and 500px and will [probably] add more.

And I’ve somehow skipped (or soldiered through? stubbornly ignored?) the jetlag and compiled a list of local art shows for you to see this month, here on Time Out Chicago.
