I make things out of paper.: Spring Cleaning
http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2015/05/spring-cleaning.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Wednesday, May 27, 2015. This past weekend I spent time clearing things out. Considering the last post and my lack of energy, I knew something had to change. This is what came out of me today. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). San Jose, CA, United States.

I make things out of paper.: Creative Energy
http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2013/09/creative-energy.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Monday, September 30, 2013. I stumbled across this article. On the internet, about the paradoxical traits of creative people. I very much relate to these traits, especially this one:. Creative people have a great deal of physical energy, but they're also often quiet and at rest. That part doesn't bother me. I just like the idea of the creative energy that is released into the universe. True Tall Taiko Tales.

I make things out of paper.: Ketubah
http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2013/11/ketubah.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Sunday, November 17, 2013. A very close friend got married over the summer and asked me to make a ketubah for her and her wife's wedding. This was something new to me and I had to do some investigation on what a ketubah was, what it typically looks like and then, how I could add my own artistic voice to this project. Part of an art project - looking closely at something I know nothing about or have never l...

I make things out of paper.: What have I been doing the last 6 months?
http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2014/05/what-have-i-been-doing-last-6-months.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Wednesday, May 21, 2014. What have I been doing the last 6 months? A lot of things, mostly taiko-related of course. And watching my little cactus plant sprout flowers, always reaching towards the sun. It seems done flowering for now, but I'm still watching it.

I make things out of paper.: Sucking
http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2014/06/sucking.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. I don't like to dwell on what I suck at. I have spent enough of my life already doing that. But it creeps back from time to time, the niggling doubts and insecurities to question everything I do. Why has this come up now? I've seen taiko players give up trying to improve. Like me and drawing, we put ourselves in a box and say, "That's not my thing. I will never be like ....Drawi...

I make things out of paper.: TaikoCat
http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2015/08/taikocat.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Saturday, August 8, 2015. I had no idea that it would cause such a commotion. People like cats! And apparently people love cats playing taiko! I never intended this to happen, but I've opened an online t-shirt store. Selling TaikoCat t-shirts. TaikoCat has her own identity now. I love how excited people get when they wear their t-shirts. TaikoCat bringing happiness across the land! View my complete profile.

http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2012/12/why-i-havent-posted-in-3-months.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Tuesday, December 18, 2012. Why I haven't posted in 3 months. Unpainted utility box at the corner of 7th and Taylor Streets in San Jose. Soon to become part of the SJ Art Box Project. Maneki Neko, Taiko style. After the first day of painting. Well, this is part of the reason. Also, I've been madly making cards! Since I last blogged, I've made 612 cards. Do I tire of it? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Sunday, November 23, 2014. Luna Park Chalk Art Festival. I've been wanting to participate in the Luna Park Chalk Art Festival. For years, but somehow my taiko schedule never seemed to line up with it. It did this year, hooray! Years ago I used to help artist friends with their ginormous squares at the San Rafael Streetpainting Festival. Thank you to the festival organizers for a wonderful event. I am a Can...

I make things out of paper.: Resting
http://yurika-art.blogspot.com/2015/06/resting.html
I make things out of paper. I make cards and I make doodles which sometimes turn into other things. Wednesday, June 3, 2015. Home sick today. I think my body is trying to tell me something. I don't know how to turn "off" when I need to, so my body is saying "STOP! Even though I had written myself this note. It was based on an article. I just read which said,. So here I am at home, trying to rest and recover. And playing with ink. Does doodling count as resting? These are my insides are they healthy?
