Mr Paul Gravett and CANDY FLOSS

I posted some zines and comics to Paul Gravett last week. Then got a great email back!

Hi Soju

Your package brightened my rainy, thundery Sunday morning perfectly ;)
Thanks so much, love what you're doing.
Hope we can meet again and let's keep in touch

Best to you
Paul

I'm so glad!

The link of my entry to Observer's Graphic Short Story is now on the COMICA website.

I got a induction of lithography finally. I'm gonna print a lot!


This is a zine for fundraising of our external degree show. It's just 2-minute-drawings.

















drawing was quick but printing and binding took so long.

Elephant Parade

I'm painting an elephant sculpture for Elephant Parade.

250 elephants of different design will be installed around London from May to July 2010.

The elephants will be auctioned after the installation and the money goes to Asian elephant conservation. This is really great both as an art project and a charity. During the auction, all elephants will stand in Hyde Park.

The miniature replica of the elephant will be sold as well.

I'm now painting him.

More activity ideas

Some references of activity book from my bookshelves

'Klumpe Dumpe' Book for kids? which I bought in Helsinki.



















'RUPERT FUN'














Ideas from the references

Finding the same picture from some different ones or finding differences from two images.

Art Market in Brighton

I'll have a stall at an art market in Brighton on 12 December.
My works will be shown at the preview exhibition running until the market.

HAPPY TRAVELLERS

New zine done by Chie and me. We had a sale an exhibition of the picture from the book at a DJ event. Because it's not an art event, people didn't look at our works.

This is the cover.



I like the tortoise one the best.





The English spelling is 'TRAVELLERS' but I wrote 'TRAVELERS' on the original one. So I just coied and pated 'L' on the cover and this page.

Research of Blood Circulation

-In blood there are Red Blood Cells, White Blood Cells and Platelets. 5 million of Red Blood Cells, 5,000 - 10,000 of White Blood Cells and 200,000 - 400,000 of Platelets.



-Red Blood Cells bring Oxygen which Lungs produce from Lungs to organs and cells such as Brain, Muscle, Eyes, Stomach, Large Bowel, Small Bowel, Liver, Kidney, etc.

-Each cells produce Carbon Dioxide. Then Red Blood Cells bring them back to Lungs and Lungs change CO2 to O2 and repeat.



-White Blood Cells kill germs in blood.

-When skin is injured, Platelets make a scab on the skin and it protects skin from germs.

-Red Blood Cell can changes its shape.

-Haemoglobin in Red Blood Cell makes the colour of the cell Red.

-Anemic person's skin looks bluish white because the number of Haemoglobin, which is Red, is less.
