My work studio is pretty much up and running now. I'm very particular about my workspace. Still missing a drawing table and lots of lamps. At night I prefer turning on a bunch of floor and desk lamps, I really dislike office lighting. Or any kind of ceiling lighting actually. it sets my mood for working, and it seems to make the music sound better. Sofa bed + mattress = a place to nap for working into the night. I also like books. Or the smell of them, anyways. If you notice on the ledge above the sofa, a skateboard I painted a while ago. I would love to get back to doing some painting at some point. Sometime's drawing on something other than paper or canvas is satisfying as hell. 'Tactility' is the word of the day.
The nighttime security guard in this building speaks a bit funny, and my spoken Cantonese really sucks, but he noticed that I had not yet changed the business plaque downstairs to my name. So I came downstairs one night and realized he drew on my plaque for me. I thought that was pretty funny. I think I'll leave it up for a while.
Anyways, I'm located smack in the middle of the very busy Dundas Street between Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok. Ladies market is next door, and the area that sells all those deadly BB guns. I'm right upstairs on the 8th floor from the Stinky Tofu. You are welcome to drop by and say hello, so long as you bring some peace offerings (except stinky tofu). I'll accept food, drink, watches, dvds, shoes, and cute girls.
