Save Japan


"Mar 14, 2011

Friday, we watched as Japan was shook by an 8.9 earthquake and then a tsunami, and then there was news of a possible meltdown of their nuclear reactor. Everyone at JapanLA, including our customers and friends, have an affinity for Japan and its culture, so to hear the terrible news, not only made us really sad, but made us wonder what could we do to help. Then, Caro, founder of Sweet Streets LA & Shibuya Girls Pop Tokyo, emailed me and told me she was doing an art show to benefit those affected by the disaster in Japan.

Since JapanLA just moved to a new location, we have lots more space, so we are hosting the art show here, at JapanLA, 7320 1/2 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90046. The Opening Reception is this SATURDAY, MARCH 19TH, 7PM-10PM. "

Please come see the show and help Japanese people, who are suffering from Tsunami.
My whole family is in Japan and through Tsunami, I have lost friends and some of my family member is missing.


I would be participating in this show to donate 100% Benefits to American Red Cross and Japanese Red Cross currently in Japan.

The interviewed

There is a video about the interview from this year Crazy for the Cult!!
I just want to thank you so much to Jensen and Katie for everything!
At Gallery 1988 blog, Jensen commented as

"I say if you don't like art, you're a horrible human.
I compare the gallery to "Field Of Dreams" (???)
Kevin Smith calls himself a "Misha completionist."
Rich Pelligrino continues to be my favorite, super genuine interviewee.
Wait, maybe Ayami is my favorite, super genuine interviewee. OK, it's a tie.
Kevin calls it the best year yet. And "It's Jensen's world, he just lets me live in it" might end up on my tombstone. Scott Listfield says super nice stuff...thank you, sir.
And YUP, we got a book deal. More on that down the road...."

Here`s the Video! Check it out!! go to this site!

Eternal Sunshine of the Spottless Mind


Sold
Eternal Sunshine of the Spottless Mind
This is the painting for the Crazy for the Cult show.
I did this painting because it is my favorite movie and I have so much great memories with this movie. When I first saw this movie, I watched this movie with my family. Who are in Japan.
I picked the scene where Joey has being teased by little boys and Clementine hold his hands and walk away, this scene reminds me of me and brother when we are young. In this painting I put elements like chinese food that they always eat and the pillow.
Enjoy.
