A brand new start

 A brand new start as a warrior 勇 士, let go 

of those yesterday's darkness. After 8 years 

this painting been nurtured and still here to remind me to stay strong and faithful, drawing focus from Jesus. 

I am so blessed that througout the years, 

there were new breakthroughs and transformations took place.

Always forward and moving from glory to glory! 

"HAPPY BLESSED BIRTHDAY YOON SEE, 

as you wake up to see this. Today a QUEEN 

was brought onto this earth to conquer and reveal the love of the Father and be the light anywhere she goes ! 🥰🔥" 

Things that stand

 Philippians 3:14

" But he who is noble plans noble things, are on noble things he stands."

Flower arrangement and journaling are some of the things I do almost everyday. 

I love to take time to stroll and work in my secret garden, smelling the flowers one by one, selecting some beautiful blossoms to decorate my home sweet home, yes this is to remind me to be present and count daily blessing. 

Also, my love for journaling started when I attended art school. I always doodle and write down good thoughts and gratitude in life. 

One more, documenting inspiring shots and looking back one by one are so memorable. 

I just want to share noble and beautiful things that I super passionate of. 

Looking back I really have many platforms to showcase my love desires. Here is one..

"Greener Pastures" is the blog I first started back in 2008 and it is a truly very good testimony for me to grow and mature from the state of thinking, nurturing the noble heartfelt desires and to now working & perfecting my true greener pastures. 

Green to greener pastures. Glory to glory and glorious land and I want to give all praises to God!

The fire breathing nose dragon....

He lives in a lake.

He puts fire in his nose and shoot in the air,

he shoots in the earth.

One olive baby got hit by the fire and bonked her head.

They dance happily together!

The end

This is a children picture book I did a year ago for my talented artist blogger friend Josh Billings to help and cheer his son Griffin Billings on fighting Leukemia.

Being an active, cheerful and creative little boy; he plays the drum very well, have faith despite of his situation and love to tell story during his free time. I am so encourage by him. I know that besides remembering him in prayers, there are so much I can do to show my support to him. And that’s how this book “The Fire Breathing Dragon” came to birth!

Griffin most recent news update is so encouraging, he was granted a wish from the Children's Wish Network to visit Sea World, Disney World and Discovery Cove. I am so glad to learn that he is doing well and with steady recovery.

For you all that are concern to help Griffin, you can visit here for more details and also here to read of his amazing recovery.

Just in case, these pages above seem familiar to you. Here was the project when all it got started last year.
