Tattole & Tempel

1New ceramic pieces"Little Tattole and Tempel"

It was inspired by a book "planetarium no Futago" by one of my favorite author Shinji Ishii 2 This was my early summer read. And I loved it! If you read Japanese I highly recommend this book.  It's an adventure and a life story about twin brother Tattole and Tempel who were left in a planetarium in a small town as babies. It's a beautiful novel I read it in a super speed.

4 Tempel (left) becomes a traveling magician and Tattle works as planetarium as a story teller.

5 I'm using a new glazed experimenting now so the color of the Tempel head came out so different than I imagined.  But all the surprise is the best part of doing ceramic!

3 Their hats comes off :) Hmmm what should I put in? Salt and Sugar?

Summer Bear for EeBoo stationary fair!

Hello!I'm back from Toronto.  Toronto Comic and Art Festival went really great! Met some wonderful Comic Artists in Canada, I will update the drawing diary from the trip soon. My first gig back in New York was my favorite client Eeboo. I went to their office and tried out their new products, shinny fancy papers and wavy card-stocks. I love their fancy sparkly papers!  I think this is the only company that I know of making these kids' craft goods with amazingly beautiful packaging! (Art Director Fumiha Tanaka does great package design!) So this is what I came up with, Summer bear!  You can meet her at the booth of EeBoo at the Stationary Fair this weekend in NY!
