Wishing everyone a Happy New Year :)
Although 2009 has not been a smooth year for many... and despite the economy... it was amazing for me to see my friends and people around me who have been affected by the economy, how they haven't lose sight of their ability to keep dreaming, be inspired, and simply be grateful for what they do already have. It's from these people that my inspiration continues."Art for a Good Cause" was created by my artist friend Lea Yang (http://www.portfoliol.com) and I about a year ago where we each would choose an organization to donate a portion of our proceeds from the sales of our artworks we'd sell. I was able to raise $50, a portion from the sales of my photography, in which I will donate to "Atlantic Street Center" (http://www.atlanticstreet.org). Their effort focuses on helping children and their families mainly of color and low-income from Seattle's central and southeast neighborhoods. Services are free to participants which is why donations are important. I chose this organization to donate to because it's important for me to see all children get as much adult attention and support they can get to push to see their skills and talents. Children's actions are true and honest. Their dreams and thoughts are genuine. However, when they're put in conditions that pushes them to grown in another direction, it's hard to keep that genunity. My volunteer experience to help teach at-risk children in the Rainier neighborhood during the first half of the year has allowed me to see this and has made me want to help them whenever I can.
So to those who have purchased my photography last year, you may not know it at the time, but on behalf of "Art for a Good Cause", we thank you as you have all contributed in donations. Thank you again.
And may 2010 be a good year for all. *^_^* Inspire.....

Obasan Restaurant Grand Opening!!
Last night was pre-grand opening dinner party for the Obasan Restaurant, soon to be opened to the public sometime this week! The interior space was designed by Yukako Horiuchi and she asked me if I'd like to display some of my photography there so I said YES! :D I really like what Yukako did with the space, from paint color selection to the wall treatment around the counter area with the dark stained wood slats. The entire atmosphere feels very young and fresh but still sophisticated. With upbeat music in the background and the great food that Obasan chefs create, I see this as a great new happening space in lower queen anne. I've met the owners last night and they are young and so full of energy. I like seeing young people start new businesses... they just have so much passion and excitement in their eyes... you can almost feel it yourself and can't help but be excited for them too. So, if you're ever in Seattle and in Lower Queen Anne area, step into Obasan and eat some yummy food... :D Dont' forget to ask the owners to tell you the story of how they came up with their restaurant name... :) Obasan Restaurant Address : 11 Mercer St. (across the street of Taco Del Mar and Melting Pot)
