Post it at concert

I got my wisdom teeth pulled out last weekend and it still aches. Especially when I run it aches like hell. I get so annoyed with it. The painkiller doesn't really work since I would just fall asleep. I hope my mouth heals before the Vancouver Marathon, which is on the first weekend of May, in two weeks. Oh my gosh, it will be really miserable if I have to run with an aching pain on my right cheek. Anyways, last night at Rilo Kiley concert I did some post it drawings with my friend Kimmer. I think both of us were a bit drunk from vodka cocktails.



I also found a place to do my silk screening. I want to experiment with enlargement of my drawing with some color pattern.

and another note. For those of you haven't seen the new Bjork music video of her song Wanderlust. I can't help it but think there're some similar theme in most of my work and the music video. That Icelandic, Greenland, Northwest Territory, Ellesmere Island, Inuit, Arctic, Pacific Northwest theme. I used to spite her music, but until my freshman year at Calarts only I started appreciating her work.

Seventy Degrees

Its seventy degrees in Portland. Can you believe it? Summer has finally come to Portland! I can't believe how hot it is outside. I brought out a Sangria mix and had it at a local park with my boyfriend. Its hot enough that I was sun tanning. Right now I'm drinking a vegan white russian while drawing and sewing a costume. Anyways, I'm working on small paintings for a up coming June show at Tender Loving Empire (NW 18th and NW Lovejoy). My prints are currently on sale at the store. If you are interest in buying any of my print you can buy it through me or indirectly through the store. I do get more money if you buy it straight from me. Just email me at edwardjuan@gmail.com
Here's a painting I did for part of the June show.


I finally went on my first bike expedition since I can remember from last summer. I biked over to the east side of the town with few friends. We got a vegan coconut white cake at Sweet Pea Company and then biked across the bridge before the rain returns. Its too bad that the weather is going back to raining for the next few days. Supposely this has been an abnormal lengthy winter. I'm crossing my finger for the long summer that I long deserve.
PS: Did I mention that my visa is worked out! I am doing the Vancouver Marathon next month and then I'll be traveling to Toronto and Montreal in June.
PSS: Here're some polaroid pictures I took while Lorelay, Dimitri, and Neyssa paid me a visit.
