Two months later

Mon, 09 Jul 2012 05:16:00 -0400

Two months have already passed since I finished the program at OCAD University and decided I will continue to keep posting on this blog. I constantly find myself asking what happened over the last two years? How did my work change? How to follow up on the projects that I started during that time? I would like to welcome you to check back this site to see the transformation of those projects and other related stuff to my practice. I will as well give specific comments and responses on previous and future postings and their relation to gift methodologies.

This picture was taken in 2008 in Kensington Market at Wanda Pie in the Sky. Some days of that summer, along with some colleges, used to sit in this coffee shop to talk about projects and draw, I gave this drawing away to the girl who used to work there.
