Ok, I now have some time to work on this site! yeah!!    

Along with my work, I have been busy thinking about what to do with this site and blog .  First of all, I finished one of the biggest parts of this site, the gallery  

Now all I need to do is finish the contact page, attach the RSS and make the main page.  I hope to have everything up and running soon. 

I have decided that I am going to use this blog to really focus on cuteness and kawaii in general.  I will put my own work in my gallery.

You can access it here or by the link at the top

Thank you for reading!

I will never forget my high school political science teacher, Mr. Bill Thompson.  Mr. Thompson would always remind us hardworking students of the value of the KISS rule… Keep It Simple Stupid.  Then, in college, one of my best professors, Dr. G., spent many years as a newspaper editor.  He would often talk about the differences between media people and the “ivory tower.”  The Ivory tower was where all the professors (especially english professors) shared their knowledge amongst themselves.  You had to know a special set of jargon just to enter.  Basically, it was overtly complicated.

I will have to agree with these two teachers of mine.  Keeping things simple makes it more accessible, and makes the message more clear. 

Unfortunately, recent web design has forgotten this rule.  There are a lot of pages out there which are poorly designed, and with too much clutter.  I think all the clutter (for example, ads by google, tag clouds, etc) really distracts from the message!  I can understand why people would like all this information,  but there is a point where it becomes information overload.

So what should we do?
Remember the KISS rule

Keep it simple stupid.

Ok, the other day I was going to work and I decided to pull out my sketch book and start drawing while standing on the bumpy train

Me, being the little lolita designer that I am, decided to draw macaroons. 

So I scanned my chicken scratches in and opened up illustrator. 

I still think it is absolutely amazing when your illustration comes alive!  Now I really want to finish all 16 that i drew, but I thin 12 will be enough for a good design

here is #1

Although it may be too early to tell, but I think Apple fixed a lot of the save/open bugs on their release of OS 10.6.2

I tested opening and saving files (in a variety of formats) in Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign without any crashes. 

This is very welcome news for me, for now I can get back to making some much needed web-graphics.

So this is a welcome update for those of us who have spent the last two months praying that your file will save correctly…

I am working on a series of bunny pictures. That is why I haven't been updating this blog as much as I should. Anyway, I have been storing the pictures on my deviant and behance accounts because the file upload onto my site has been crashing my browser.

But here are a few pictures of my bunny series. I have about 10 more left to go, then I am going to be making and selling postcard sets

This just shows you what I have been working on lately :-)
