Face Of A Faith

This one I drew with pencile at San Diego. I know I still need to improve my drawing skill of the structure of a subject. But Yim said this one's tongue is great though. I still hope I can figure it out soon.


Lately, practicing the foundation of sketch of figure. I would say I really love drawing. I just need to make myself into a sense of drawing with a living feeling . And I tried to contact it with God's wisdom. I was thinking about what the truth is , what the way is and what the lif is. Then,Jesus is just saying that:"I'm the way,the truth,and the life."

Again,Jesus makes me turn to face to Him. I realized once again that I wouldn't follow anyone or anything else.Only You,Jesus.


You are the light I follow
You are the face of a faith I love
Oh my darling believe in me

You are the hymn I cover
You are the king of an Indian dove
Oh my darling the fever in me
I wait for a while, I know
But I let it go, yes I let it go
My fear is gone

You are the hope I cherish
You are the care of a prayer I love
Oh my darling believe in me
In me

Believe in me

Love of America Trip

Happy Ester!:) I'm back in Taiwan.

About this trip,I know I was so lucky that following teacher Yim for his workshop.So that I can have a chance to go to U.S.A. America is a beautiful country. People who I met there are kind and nice. I have seen a lot..have learned a lot...have thought a lot at this time! I would say that I really got many graces from God. I was thankful for everything while I was in the United Sates. Where I lived,what I ate,where I went to,what I saw,who I met,what I thought...everything is new and interesting for me.I was like a newborn baby and was just coming to the new world. Wherever I when to I was excited about beautiful landscape,although I was busy and tired sometimes and even though teacher and another friend they seemed not that interested in this country. But I enjoyed it on my way.

3/15-21 I was in Scottsdale,Arizona. The workshop was at Scottsdale Artists' School. It's hot and dry and has a lot of cactuses. I ever tried hard to adapt myself to this new conditions. Because the dry weather,I have a nosebleed almost every day at Scottsdale. And I had my leg burnt by an accident. I had a trouble about my credit card. But you know.. everything is in God's control. So everything went well. Thanks a lot to Tammy and Pomin.Thanks for the help!

3/21-26 I was in Rochester,NY. The workshop was in Steven's studio.The studio is great and big!It has fine equipments. I really like his studio. I think I have mentioned that I love Rochester,NY before. At the first time I got there,I thought I was like the little girl with red hat who lives in a dreaming world of fairy tale. It's so cold.it's about 2 degrees Centigrade,but I really hope I can go visit once again someday and... with my man. hehe..That's a very beautiful place. Really! Also,I miss those new friends and they're so kind to me.

3/26-29 I went visiting my dear Teresa. So I lived in her house. It was so great to see them on this trip. That makes me feel a lot relaxed.Thanks to Yen and Darin for treating me so well while I was in LA. I won't forget the special time,the delicious meals and cakes you cooked for me. :) I miss seeing you guys. Hope to see you in two months.

3/29-4/7 I was in San Deigo.The workshop was in Ron's studio. I have couple friends here. It was great spending time with them,too. I met my dear Camille,Leo,Ray and Ray's family. They're doing well. Camille is a very nice aunts and she is always sooo kind to me! She paid me housing fee and also invited us to live in her house. She has an wonderful house,sweet husband,Leo and three awesome cats! It's enjoyable to stay with her. I and Camille often have a chat during the midnight. It's funny that we have kept our many secrets to each other. In oder to thank her,I gave her my painting which is a portrait that I painted at Rochester.Hope that it's a good feekback for her though. I miss you,dear Camille.Thanks for your hospitality.

I also wanted to thank Ray's family. It's so surprised to reciev many gifts and the poster about "welcome Hope to San Diego" is really awesome! I won't forget it. You guys are such sweet hearts. Thanks for being my America family.
I wanted to mention the host of the studio,Ron. His studio is not big,but he has a lot of painting books. you know ..I love reading painting books. I found out many painting books that I have never seen from his bookshelf. He said he has more painting books at his house and just like a library...and he invited me to visit next time. Next time?! Maybe.That really attracts me.Plus,there was a student gave me a pinting book for a gift.That's so lovely and surprised too.

Lastly,I wanted to thank all of you for praying for me all the time,especially my older sister. I love you! This trip impresses me a lot and it gaives me more confirmation to study abroad. I really hope that my family can go to San Francisco in June with me for having fun.Thanks for supporting me always.
Actually that I have taken many pictures,but I don't have time to upload them right now. I have uploaded few of them on my facebook. You may go for a look if you would like to.




I'm yours

Well, you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but your so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks, now I'm tryin to get back
before the cool done run out I'll be givin it my best test
and nothin's gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon it's again my turn to win some or learn some
But I won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait
I'm yours
Well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music at the moment people dance and sing with me
Were just 1 big family
And it's our godforsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved
So, i won't hesitate no more,
no more, it cannot wait i'm sure
there's no need to complicate our time is short
this is our fate
I'm yours
Scooch on over closer, dear
And I will nibble your ear
I've been spendin' way too long checkin' my tongue in the mirror
and bendin' over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
and so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I'd be sayin' is there ain't no better reason
to rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
it's what we aim to do
our name is our virtue
But I won't hesitate no more,
no more it cannot wait
I'm yours
well open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la one big family
it's your god forsaken right to be loved, loved, loved, loved
open up your mind and see like me
open up your plans and damn you're free
look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la happy family
it's our god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved
it's our god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved
listen to the music of the moment come and dance with me
ah, la peaceful melodies
it's you god forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved
