哪個爸媽會因為孩子是藝術家, 而驕傲?

Which parents would be proud if their child is an artist?

不多.
Not Many.

But will there ever be?

shaka

pen on paper. 21 x 29.7 cm. 2008

Shaka, a rhino, who is afraid of extinction, wears a red cross mask in order to hide her precious horn. She loves to make friends yet afraid being hurt by them. Because she thinks she is the last rhino on Earth, she is very careful. She wanders around without a home because she thinks no where is safe anymore.

kamille and al dente

mixed media on paper. 21 x 29.7 cm. 2008

Kamille, a colorblind chameleon, changes his skin color according to his mood instead of the envrionment (since he is colorblind). Al Dente, a beetle who was almost eaten by Kamille, escaped because of her hard shell. They like to explore the forest together but others often laugh at this unusual pair. Since both of them do not care, they are happy when one is around. Kamille and Al Dente became best friends after Kamille failed to eat Al Dente.

mongmong

MongMong, a solitary owl that is diurnal. She spends most of her time reading in her tree house. She has small eyes unlike other owls. To avoid being alienated, she wears goggle to make her eyes look larger. Since she reads during the day, she spend her nighttime sleeping with her weird behaviour of facing down. Despite of all those readings, she still has perfect eyesight.
