  • look!

    I like how the connectors in the lowercase o’s give it motion and really illustrate the word.

  • Handwriting script trial

    Decided to relax after writing practice by making something cute and in my own basic handwriting. Chinito is Adrian’s family’s nickname for him. Funny how a Chinese girl managed to marry a Costa Rican nicknamed Chinese. Or maybe it makes 100% sense. Also note that my natural handwriting is very much straight up and down – a clear indicator of my Type A personality. The proper 55° slant is proving very difficult for me.

  • First ornamental script writing class

    Pretty happy with how this is going. I like this whole “being inspired to do something analog by something digital” thing.

  • Project Reed Quintet

    This past weekend, Adrian and I went down to NYC for a rehearsal of this new reed quintet project he has going on. A reed quintet consists of oboe, clarinet, saxophone, bassoon, and bass clarinet; basically, like a woodwind quintet but without the sad reedless instruments of flute and horn. It’s a pretty cool sound and they’ve got a really solid group together. I tagged along to hang with some other friends in the area and to take some preliminary photos as they gear up for a music festival retreat and coming gigs. I’ll also be doing their website in the near future… once they decide on a name. In any case, I just spent a good chunk of time tweaking up one of the photos, so here’s a public preview of an awesome up and coming group!
