Time goes so fast....&amp;nbsp; I was really lucky that all my family, my friends, and I are not affected seriously by the 3.11 earthquake disaster. It still remains so much problems, and I just wish that things get better....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Talking about myself, I got the full-time job right before the disaster, and I've been working as the surface designer for interior and products at the printing company. I don't have much time to create the new art but finally had a chance to make the new year's card.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I painted the sea horse. It's the year of dragon in Chinese zodiac in 2012, and we call the sea horse as the baby dragon in Japanese. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just wish you all a happy, healthy, and peaceful year 2012.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"The Sea Dragon"&lt;br /&gt;Acrylic and ink on watercolor paper.&lt;br /&gt;I just wanted to paint something peaceful using the icon of the dragon. The little scrolls are representing the wishes and hopes. &lt;br /&gt;The little bubbles are born from the deep cold sea, fly to the sky, and gather with everyone to create the warm cloud. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-4480913080925360619?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=4480913080925360619' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/4480913080925360619'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/4480913080925360619'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2012/01/sea-dragon.html' title='The Sea Dragon'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-eNQybEGFnTE/TwWMjwIZgII/AAAAAAAAAsE/DvuG6jKuHPE/s72-c/fumikoalaSeaDragon3.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-8742575283834792335</id><published>2010-12-21T22:33:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2010-12-21T22:33:49.553+09:00</updated><title type='text'>The Snow Bunny Festival</title><content type='html'>&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TRCBuF8e4aI/AAAAAAAAArE/kqFx0IKTots/s1600/fumikoala_snowBunny.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TRCBuF8e4aI/AAAAAAAAArE/kqFx0IKTots/s1600/fumikoala_snowBunny.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;The Snow Bunny Festival&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;It's going to be the year of rabbit in 2011, so I created the snow bunny illustration.

It's so amazing that someone in other country saw my blog and gave the job! I made 6 postcards out of 1 illustration, and each postcard includes one of their jewelries. It was fun because I could illustrate whatever I wanted! I used the acrylics and the colored pencils on the illustration board.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Laconic"というマレーシアのペナンにあるジュエリーのお店のポストカードをデザインしました〜。一つのイラストから６枚のポストカードをつくりました。予想もしない国の方が私の絵をみてくれて、仕事をくれるなんてありがたいことでございます〜。私の好きなように描いていいとのことだったので、とっても楽しかったです〜。アクリルと色鉛筆で描きました。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-2909847299230722494?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=2909847299230722494' title='17 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/2909847299230722494'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/2909847299230722494'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/06/laconic-jewelries-postcards.html' title='&quot;Laconic&quot; Postcards'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TCn_cGNFNKI/AAAAAAAAAh4/jkzmHDS-_o8/s72-c/fumikoalaLaconicfull.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>17</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-1370082375964633551</id><published>2010-06-16T17:14:00.003+09:00</published><updated>2010-10-04T14:20:28.228+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Pago Bakery Birthday Card</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBh5MmP42mI/AAAAAAAAAc8/7pjnCO5GKG4/s1600/fumikoalaBdaycard.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="236" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBh5MmP42mI/AAAAAAAAAc8/7pjnCO5GKG4/s320/fumikoalaBdaycard.png" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBh7oAx7DrI/AAAAAAAAAdM/1W8hadWlKjE/s1600/fumikoalaPagPin.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBh7oAx7DrI/AAAAAAAAAdM/1W8hadWlKjE/s400/fumikoalaPagPin.png" width="281" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My sister asked me to make the birthday cards for her friends, so I made this Pago (Pancake Gorilla), my new character's card. He is the owner chef at the Pago's Bakery, and the polar bear is his assistant. He goes to deliver the huge birthday cupcake!! The name of the birthday girl would be on the bottom ribbon.&lt;br /&gt;For some reason,&amp;nbsp; I love them sooooo much because they are sooooooo cute and make me happy!!! but I cannot find them in Japan....&lt;br /&gt;The left one is the front of the card, and the right one is the inside. I drew the illustrations with the pen on paper and added the colors on  Photoshop.&lt;br /&gt;I've been making hundreds of greeting cards at the design studio in NY, but because I don't hold the copyrights, I'm not allowed to put them on the blog.... so I'm glad that I'm finally able to post this here!&lt;br /&gt;The next 4 characters are from my clay artworks @ Design Festa. The last ilustration is the shy big grape and the small one. I painted with acrylics about 2 years ago, and I recently adjusted the colors and added some patterns on Photoshop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBh7knVPC2I/AAAAAAAAAdE/S__9_XGG9Oc/s1600/fumikoalaMagCoo.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBh7knVPC2I/AAAAAAAAAdE/S__9_XGG9Oc/s400/fumikoalaMagCoo.png" width="281" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;妹から誕生日カードを頼まれたので、この前新しくつくった”ぱごちゃん”（パンケ−キゴリラ）を使ってつくってみました。パン屋さんのオーナーシェフで、白くまさんはアシスタントで大きなカップケーキを届けているところです。下のリボンのところに、お届け主の名前がきます。&lt;br /&gt;日本ではあんまり見かけないのですが、私はかわいいかわいいカップケーキを見るのがとても大好きです。実際食べると甘すぎることが多くて、スイーツが好きな私でもたくさんは食べられないのですが、誕生日と言えば、思い浮かべるのはやっぱりメルヘンなカップケ〜〜〜キ！&lt;br /&gt;左側はカードの表で、右側はカードを開いた時のデザインです。手描きで描いてからフォトショップで色を付けました。NYでデザイン事務所に勤めていたときに何百枚ものグリーティングカードのデザインをしてきましたが、著作権上ブログにのせることができませんでした。なので、今回やっと載せることができたのでうれしいです。&lt;br /&gt;下の４つのキャラはこの前のデザフェス用につくった粘土作品の子たちです。 下のは引きこもりぶどうくんと小さなぶどうくんの絵です。２年くらい前にアクリルで描いて、最近ちょっとフォトショップで手直してみました。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBiFN4u81mI/AAAAAAAAAdU/cIP4PPbCKyg/s1600/fumikoalagrape.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="257" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBiFN4u81mI/AAAAAAAAAdU/cIP4PPbCKyg/s320/fumikoalagrape.png" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-1370082375964633551?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=1370082375964633551' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/1370082375964633551'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/1370082375964633551'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/06/pago-bakery-birthday-card.html' title='Pago Bakery Birthday Card'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TBh5MmP42mI/AAAAAAAAAc8/7pjnCO5GKG4/s72-c/fumikoalaBdaycard.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-2030999045221815768</id><published>2010-05-19T22:59:00.001+09:00</published><updated>2010-05-28T22:32:32.757+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Design Festa vol.31</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_PiO0FtAyI/AAAAAAAAAW4/bbopBifCzJQ/s1600/4610536385_3d25bd19ec.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_PiO0FtAyI/AAAAAAAAAW4/bbopBifCzJQ/s320/4610536385_3d25bd19ec.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_PjY9Hqi5I/AAAAAAAAAXI/u2tMIGnrMy8/s1600/CIMG3956.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_PjY9Hqi5I/AAAAAAAAAXI/u2tMIGnrMy8/s320/CIMG3956.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_Ph2JWPOlI/AAAAAAAAAWg/F3JWf5uT7Io/s1600/CIMG3955.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_Ph2JWPOlI/AAAAAAAAAWg/F3JWf5uT7Io/s320/CIMG3955.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_PiGF5B6bI/AAAAAAAAAWw/gVmsRT4pw8Y/s1600/P1090249.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_PiGF5B6bI/AAAAAAAAAWw/gVmsRT4pw8Y/s320/P1090249.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Thank you so much for everyone who came to our booth!!&lt;br /&gt;It was first time to have the booth, but it was successful because many people helped me a lot! &lt;br /&gt;My father and sister came over in the early morning to help me to set up the booth, and my mother made our lunch!&lt;br /&gt;Many my friends bought the postcards, pens, and prints....&lt;br /&gt;and they brought the drinks, food, and flowers....&lt;br /&gt;and at the end, they stayed and helped cleaning up the booth!!!&lt;br /&gt;I got so much help from many people, and I had a really good time!&lt;br /&gt;Thank you thank you thank you sooooooo much!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ブログを書くのが遅くなってしまいましたが、&lt;br /&gt;デザインフェスタに来てくださった皆様、ほんとうにありがとうございました。&lt;br /&gt;今回は初めての出展だったので，いろいろ分からないことが多く，たくさんんのかたに助けてもらいました。 &lt;br /&gt;父と妹が朝から荷物運びと手伝いに来てくれて、母もお弁当をつくってくれて、友達も差し入れとともに来てくれて，たくさんいろいろ買ってくれました。&lt;br /&gt;さらに，最後まで残って片付けを手伝ってくれた友達もいました〜〜〜。。。&lt;br /&gt;ああぁぁぁぁ〜〜本当にみんなどうもどうもありがとうぅうぅぅぅぅ〜〜〜〜！！！&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some stories are behind on every my illustration, so I'll write about them one by one on this blog. I really wanted to tell each story to the people who bought the postcards and prints, but I didn't have enough time. Hope they check this blog to find out what were the stories of the illustrations they bought!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;私の書いたイラストは物語があって、それをポストカードを買ってくれた方に説明したかったのですが，時間があまりありませんでした。少しずつブログに書いていこうと思います。買ってくれた方〜〜、、、、見てくれるといいなぁ〜。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I found out that a lot of people like my pen-and-ink drawings. The # 1 sale was "The Bird Apartment" because I got the huge poster on the booth, but 2nd sales were all line drawings; "The Peacock Fish", " The Sun, the moon, and the Sirens", and " The Giraffe", all line drawings!!&lt;br /&gt;I thought Japanese people might like only cute stuff, but they do like some whimsy different styles!!&lt;br /&gt;But they don't like the illustrations that were too Surrealistic.... I got the good reactions from&amp;nbsp; people from other countries about my oil paintings, but not in here.... &lt;br /&gt;It was really good to know what kind of my styles were accepted in Japan! &lt;br /&gt;Thanks everyone for visiting our booth!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;私はいろんなスタイルの絵を描くので、どんなのが日本で好まれるのか気になっていました。かわいいのが好まれるかと思ったら、意外にインクとペンで描いたちょっと不思議な感じの絵をいいと言ってくださる方がたくさんいてびっくりしました。&lt;br /&gt;とりアパートの絵は大きなポスターの宣伝のおかげで，一番人気だったのですが、それ以外で評判が良かったのはみんなドローイングでした。孔雀魚、太陽と月とサイレン、キリンさんの絵などです。油絵のちょっとシュールな絵はあんまり興味を示してもらえなかったです。&lt;br /&gt;少しだけど、何となく日本人に好まれる絵が分かったような気が来ました。&lt;br /&gt;今回いろいろ勉強になりました。&lt;br /&gt;みなさま、本当にありがとうございました〜！&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-2030999045221815768?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=2030999045221815768' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/2030999045221815768'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/2030999045221815768'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/05/design-festa-vol31.html' title='Design Festa vol.31'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S_PiO0FtAyI/AAAAAAAAAW4/bbopBifCzJQ/s72-c/4610536385_3d25bd19ec.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-6087233706005392899</id><published>2010-05-05T00:58:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2010-05-05T00:58:00.137+09:00</updated><title type='text'>CLAY CLAY AND CLAY!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

They are the pens, accessories for the cell phones, and some clips. They are for the Design Festa vol. 31 on May 15th and 16th!&lt;br /&gt;I used the really high quality super light clay made of the resin. First, I tried with the cheap bad quality paper clay, then couple days later, they all shank..... They looked really cute when I made them, but they turned to 100 years old characters with lots of wrinkles.... The worst thing was that I found it out after making more than 30 pens.... It was really shocking and sad but also funny. I might display the grandpa and grandma characters just for fun :p&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;や〜〜〜っとできました〜！デザインフェスタ用の粘土作品を何週間かかけて作っていました。ボールペンと，携帯ストラップと，クリップです。&lt;br /&gt;最初の３０本以上のペンは、安い紙粘土でつくったのですが、何日かたったらかなり縮んでしまって おじいちゃん、おばあちゃんキャラに変身していました。。。かなりショックだったのですが、あまりの変わりように笑ってしまいました。場所があったらブースに飾るかもしれないです。&lt;br /&gt;そのあとに、軽量粘土で作ったら，やっとうまくいきました〜！ &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The pink one is the "Pinguin" as pink penguin from my children's book. I changed the eyes, so it looked different, but it's him!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and the light blue one is "Kuma-kun".&amp;nbsp; I made this bear character when I was in elementary school... I just remembered him recently.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The green one is my new character, Pago-chan as the pancake gorilla! I know he doesn't look like gorilla, but he is.... The pancake is on his head by accident, but he likes it and wears it as the hat. When he gets hungry, he will eat it...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last one is Magda the cat. The name is from my friend who loves the cats. The cat has the odd eye, one green and the other is blue. She is always thinking something funny... and when she thinks of the good idea to make people laugh, the third ear will come up between two ears.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ピンクのは、”ぴんぎん”という，私が大学のときに作ったピンクペンギンの絵本のキャラクターです。この粘土作品は目を大きくしました。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;水色のは”くまくん”といって、私が小学校のときに作ったキャラクターです。ふっと思い出したのでつくってみました。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;緑のは新しいキャラクターで、”ぱごちゃん”と言います。パンケーキゴリラの略です。パンケーキが頭にのっかる前の旧名はみごちゃん（みどりごりら）でした。転んでパンケーキがのっかったのですが、ふと鏡を見たらすてきな帽子に見えたので、帽子としてかぶっています。おなかがすくと食べます。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;黄色のは”マグダ”という緑と青い目を持つ猫です。猫好きの愉快な友達の名前からつけました。いつも面白いことをしでかそうと企んでいます。ひらめくと、３つ目の耳が両耳の間からはえてきます。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-6087233706005392899?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=6087233706005392899' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/6087233706005392899'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/6087233706005392899'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/05/clay-clay-and-clay.html' title='CLAY CLAY AND CLAY!!!'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S-A2eTTfunI/AAAAAAAAAV4/4L_h1P4FGNM/s72-c/fumikoalaDFpenpin.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-1708676214222700479</id><published>2010-04-16T00:10:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2010-04-16T00:10:21.570+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Tea Time</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8clqlw0RiI/AAAAAAAAAVA/DffcbWW5RUo/s1600/fumikoalaTeatime.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="230" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8clqlw0RiI/AAAAAAAAAVA/DffcbWW5RUo/s320/fumikoalaTeatime.png" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I finally got the booth # for Design Festa!! It's C-0815 on the first floor. If anyone planing to visit Japan in mid May, come to the event!&amp;nbsp; It's a huge place like Javits convention center in NY, and there will be thousands of creative art booths and the live shows too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The illustration of the teapot and the teacup is done by watercolor and colored pencils on paper. I have to make the postcards of all the illustrations soooooon!!! I can't believe that I got only 1 month left for the show!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;やっとデザインフェスタのブース番号が決まりました〜。C−０８１５です。入り口入って左側です。かなり広いところなので歩きやすい靴で来てください。ブースだけでなくライブもやっているみたいです。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;こちらのお茶ポットとカップの絵は水彩絵の具と色鉛筆で仕上げました。もうそろそろポストカードなどを作り始めないと。。。のんびりしすぎました。。。私の人生いつもぎりぎり。。。あと１ヶ月しかないなんて〜〜〜。大変大変。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-1708676214222700479?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=1708676214222700479' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/1708676214222700479'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/1708676214222700479'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/04/tea-time.html' title='Tea Time'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8clqlw0RiI/AAAAAAAAAVA/DffcbWW5RUo/s72-c/fumikoalaTeatime.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-116779990402349053</id><published>2010-04-13T00:47:00.001+09:00</published><updated>2010-04-13T01:03:05.618+09:00</updated><title type='text'>The Sun, the Moon, and the Sirens</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8MzjlqtJoI/AAAAAAAAAU4/87hwtsBGNF8/s1600/fumikoalaSirens.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8MzjlqtJoI/AAAAAAAAAU4/87hwtsBGNF8/s320/fumikoalaSirens.png" width="227" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8Mzb02AJPI/AAAAAAAAAUw/Q5lDeH7vFeg/s1600/fumikoalaSirens2.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8Mzb02AJPI/AAAAAAAAAUw/Q5lDeH7vFeg/s320/fumikoalaSirens2.png" width="254" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8MzVbLtiMI/AAAAAAAAAUo/qAh9Jap7nPs/s1600/fumikoalaSirens3.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8MzVbLtiMI/AAAAAAAAAUo/qAh9Jap7nPs/s320/fumikoalaSirens3.png" width="250" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8MynXHQkYI/AAAAAAAAAUg/VCzzrRw47h0/s1600/fumikoala%E6%B2%88%E4%B8%81%E8%8A%B1.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="316" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8MynXHQkYI/AAAAAAAAAUg/VCzzrRw47h0/s320/fumikoala%E6%B2%88%E4%B8%81%E8%8A%B1.png" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I rent the booth for the &lt;a href="http://www.designfesta.com/index_en.html"&gt;Tokyo Design Festa&lt;/a&gt; with my college&amp;nbsp; friend &lt;a href="http://www.jasonraish.com/"&gt;Jason&lt;/a&gt;. It's the biggest art event in Tokyo, and there will be more than 2700 booths. It's on May 15th and 16th @ &lt;a href="http://www.designfesta.com/event/index_en.html"&gt;Tokyo Big Site&lt;/a&gt;. Hope you can come! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and I finally finished this piece!! I've been working on this since few months ago. This is the scene that the sun goes to sleep and the moon wakes up. I just got into the Greek myth so much somehow and wanted to draw some of them. They are the Sirens who have the bird bodies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I painted with the watercolors on top of the acrylic brown ink drawing. I enjoyed drawing the details, but I'm not going to use the pen and ink for a while... it was so much work more than I expected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.designfesta.com/index.html"&gt;東京デザインフェスタ&lt;/a&gt;という2700以上のブースが並ぶ大きなアートイベントに、NYの美大の友達の&lt;a href="http://www.jasonraish.com/"&gt;ジェイソン&lt;/a&gt;と一緒にブースを出します。５月１５日と１６日に&lt;a href="http://www.designfesta.com/event/index.html"&gt;東京ビッグサイト&lt;/a&gt;にて開催されます。ブース番号が分かり次第すぐにお知らせします。お時間ありましたらぜひ遊びに来てください〜。たくさんのアーティストの作品が見れて楽しいですよ。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;そしてこの謎の絵。あやしい感じを出そうとがんばってみました。数ヶ月前から下書を描き始めて，やっ〜〜と終りました〜。夕方になって太陽くんが眠りについてお月さんが起きてきてお茶を飲んでいるところです。ギリシャ神話のサイトを見ていたらなんだかそんな感じのが描きたくなったので、鳥人間のSirenというのも入れてみました。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;最初に茶色のインクで描いてから水彩で色を付けました。細かいのをかりかり描くのは楽しかったのですが、思ったより描き込まないといけなくて結構時間がかかってしまいました。しばらくはこの感じの絵は描きたくないです。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got the illustration job for the watercolor painting of the flower. It's going to be the postcard and will be sold at the health center. I haven't done the realistic watercolor paining for a long time, so it was fun too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;沈丁花の水彩画のイラストの仕事をしました。健康センターのポストカードになるそうです。最近は空想の絵ばっかり描いていたので、たまにこういうのを描くのも新鮮で楽しいなぁと思いました。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-116779990402349053?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=116779990402349053' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/116779990402349053'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/116779990402349053'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/04/sun-moon-and-sirens.html' title='The Sun, the Moon, and the Sirens'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S8MzjlqtJoI/AAAAAAAAAU4/87hwtsBGNF8/s72-c/fumikoalaSirens.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-8619999669812262664</id><published>2010-03-29T23:28:00.001+09:00</published><updated>2010-03-30T15:01:00.677+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Satoe Garden Logo</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The logo is the sun with the plans growing around it, in the heart shaped leaf. Three characters are "Memames", the beans, and each of them got their own herb on their head. They are taking their herbs on their head off and explaining how the herbs can be used for the skin care, the herb tea, and bath. The herbs will be sold at my booth @ Tokyo Design Festa on May 15th and 16th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;有機栽培のハーブガーデンのロゴとキャラクターと広告をつくりました。ロゴはハート形の葉っぱの中に植物が生えた太陽です。キャラクターは”芽豆S”（めまめーず）で、それぞれ違うハーブが頭から生えています。スキンケア、ハーブティー，入浴剤などにどのように使うか，自分の頭から生えているハーブをもぎ取って使って説明しています。&lt;br /&gt;今度の５月１５．１６日の東京デザインフェスタでも私のブースにて販売しています！ &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://www.designfesta.com/index.html&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-8619999669812262664?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=8619999669812262664' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/8619999669812262664'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/8619999669812262664'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/03/satoe-garden-logo.html' title='Satoe Garden Logo'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S7CuGvl-9OI/AAAAAAAAAS8/46iHblUpuRA/s72-c/Picture+2.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-8461487762792922612</id><published>2010-03-23T17:47:00.001+09:00</published><updated>2010-03-29T13:30:10.164+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Mr.Fish Fishes Miss Fish</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S6h7Hzm0szI/AAAAAAAAASk/W5Fxh5Gp800/s1600-h/fumikoala1.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S6h7Hzm0szI/AAAAAAAAASk/W5Fxh5Gp800/s320/fumikoala1.png" width="230" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S6h7K3Bg6iI/AAAAAAAAASs/LVR3xhnNMvI/s1600-h/fumikoala2.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S6h7K3Bg6iI/AAAAAAAAASs/LVR3xhnNMvI/s200/fumikoala2.png" width="145" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S6h7OJ5jb9I/AAAAAAAAAS0/NMuYD1z6QUo/s1600-h/fumikoala3.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S6h7OJ5jb9I/AAAAAAAAAS0/NMuYD1z6QUo/s200/fumikoala3.png" width="195" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;The small one on the boat was the Umipico that I made for the character contest before.

The name of the bike is "Sugar High", and the paint on the front is the chocolate!&lt;br /&gt;I love the effect of the color pencils on top of acrylics, but the colors have changed a lot after I scanned the image. so I adjusted on the Photoshop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;イラストレーターの名前を”ふみこあーら”、と決めてから、なかなか”ふみこ”と”コアラ”をかけていることを分かってもらえず、プロフィールの写真をコアラにしないと〜っと思って描いてみました。始めは魔女のようにほうきの代わりに筆に乗せていたのですが、自分の好きなものをどんどん足していったら，こんな乗り物になりました。甘いものが大好きなので自転車の名前もシュガーハイ。自転車の前にかかっているのはペンキではなくてチョコレートです。隣で飛んでいるのはうさぎあざらしの、うさらし君たちです。今考えた名前。。。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;がさがさ感が好きなので、よくアクリルガッシュと色鉛筆を使って描くことが多いです。今回は仕上げにたくさん色鉛筆を使ったので、スキャンでは色を再現するのが難しかったので最後にフォトショップでちょっと違った感じで仕上げてあります。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/21474294-5078671288307058498?l=www.fumikoala.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21474294&amp;postID=5078671288307058498' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/5078671288307058498'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21474294/posts/default/5078671288307058498'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.fumikoala.com/2010/03/fumikoala.html' title='fumikoala'/><author><name>fumikoala</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04008905858376222288</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/TAPAPwOuElI/AAAAAAAAAX0/cTXwXtVsUUc/S220/fumikoalaElephant.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S6H2NAXebDI/AAAAAAAAASc/9Xx1SWd-a7M/s72-c/fumikoala.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21474294.post-8055162814372860504</id><published>2010-03-04T18:22:00.004+09:00</published><updated>2010-03-05T18:35:31.764+09:00</updated><title type='text'>the Bunny V.S. the Fairies from the Sleeping Wonderland</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S49zqx6INBI/AAAAAAAAARU/Uj_7BqrZKBE/s1600-h/Picture+10.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="255" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S49zqx6INBI/AAAAAAAAARU/Uj_7BqrZKBE/s320/Picture+10.png" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;When the bunny was doing her homework, the fairies came out of her month to force her sleep! &lt;br /&gt;The paisleys were going around the bunny to make her unconscious, the grass started growing on the floor, and the door on the clock opened to the sleeping wonderland....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;うささん V.S. すいまーちゃん（睡魔）&lt;br /&gt;うささんが宿題をしていると、口の中からすいまーちゃんが現れた！ペーズリーがうささんを囲み、草が床から生えてきて、柱時計のドアが開き、夢の世界へ〜ららら〜〜。。。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S5DOWAT-5lI/AAAAAAAAARs/Z91e_bzeYCg/s1600-h/Picture+14.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="316" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S5DOWAT-5lI/AAAAAAAAARs/Z91e_bzeYCg/s320/Picture+14.png" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S5DOYw6DQ-I/AAAAAAAAAR0/40fcEC8OBCk/s1600-h/Picture+15.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L0c8pPBLRrY/S5DOYw6DQ-I/AAAAAAAAAR0/40fcEC8OBCk/s320/Picture+15.png" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Whenever I had to read the text books, I always got so sleepy....&amp;nbsp; Actually I really felt that the fairy was spreading the spider's threads around my face to make me sleepy....
