Lost and Found in Camden: Book Now Available on Amazon.com

"Lost and Found in Camden," collection of eleven stories written by eleven authors about one hot wet August weekend in Camden Lock Market, is now available on amazon.com. It's also available on Netgalley.

I had a wonderful opportunity to contribute to this project as a cover illustrator. I'd like to give many many thanks to all the contributors,  Ann E. Hacker, Anita Bihovsky, Beth Baugh, D-L Nelson, Tamara Efran, Victoria Chanin, Elke Klein, Hillary Theriault, Janice Jakubowitcz, Suzen Ziegahn, Barbara Inglis, for this opportunity.

All royalties from this project will be donated to Deutsche Krebshilfe e.V. (German Cancer Aid) for the member who passed away with cancer.


The stories are interesting and easy to get into, with lots of vivid description of the Camden market. Reading this book sure will make you want to go get lost in its wonders.


Ms. Angie Young has given a very nice review of the book in her blog, The Little Reading Cabin. Please visit her blog here.

Village of Not is Completed!

After having pure joy of working on my first children's book project, "Village of Not" for a few month, the first draft have been completed. Since this was my first attempt to work on this medium, I went through numerous learning curbs, constantly studying and trying out new things. It felt like I was trying to swim across a lake without knowing how to swim.

Now I plan to take some time off from the project to refresh my creative eye and mind. The best way to do that is to work on some other projects. When I return to this project with fresh eyes and mind, I will be battling this project again.

Meanwhile, please check out the current edition here...

Hello Haarlem, Netherlands!

After being blessed with opportunities to study and work in New York City (again), I have relocated to Haarlem, Netherlands. I'd like to consider myself as a well-traveled person; I've moved and traveled ever since I was 16, but so far, Haarlem is the nicest, most charming place I've been to.

Children's Book Production Continues

Have been working very hard on the children's book project. After doing numerous research and sketching for each page, I'm finally moving onto final drawings.
