| APILO (Asian Pacific Islander Legal Outreach) is coming out with their annual report and had me photograph their staff. Initially I thought I was going to bring my studio lights and background to do formal portraits.
But fifteen minutes prior to leaving the house for the shoot, they told me they just wanted natural looking portraits and by groups instead of individuals. Which made this shoot a piece of cake.

| Here's another rough for the I-Hotel book. The AIEEEEEE! Hotel novella. I guess it's like a book within a book which is what a novella is called.
This book is gonna be more than six hundred pages. A big thick one!
I have set up the drawing table in the doghouse (aka studio). It's a very small room. I'm glad the table is up. It has been many years since I haven't had a drawing table. I'm spending so much time drawing nowadays. It's nice to be creative at the drawing table again.
Not only drawings for the I-Hotel book but doodling for myself...just for the heck of it.
This is a drawing of Li Kui, aka Black Whirlwind in the classic Water Margin story. He is known to be very strong,and is famous for his pair of axes.
I drew him doing a gung fu performance on Grant Avenue in San Francisco's Chinatown.
Okay...another one down, fourteen more to go. I haven't been paying attention to the deadlines.
All I knew is that this book is scheduled to be out in April 2010.
The drawing table has gotten me sitting in the doghouse all day. I think I should go to the supermarket just for a little exercise and to see the world...at midnight. Sad huh?
