Je suis fatigue.

I showed my last painting to few folks around and seems like I got a fairly good response. I'm going to work on more of them, as a series perhaps. Maybe I'll put it in a solo show I might have in September here in Portland. Not 100% sure yet. But meanwhile I did more character sketches and came up three more characters.

The middle guy is inspired by this bicycle clothing brand called Rapha. They are kind of the "high end" wear for cyclists. I think its mostly because their product does look good, not tacky and typical.
The last few weekends I did a lot of field trips. I went camping on the Oregon coast, hike in the Columbia River gorge, and other adventures in Portland.










I also plan to go to Boston and Cape Cod in end of August. I can't wait! Beach, seafood, ... more beach. The best clam chowder I've ever had is in Provincetown. Yes, suck it Seattle.
