Ginkgo Leaves

                                                            You paint the earth gently

                                                            With thousands of yellow fans,

                                                            Side by side

                                                            To meet white frost.

Sunday Studio

"Landscaspes are more emotional than figures!" my art friend said  as we met at the park behind CMU. "Certainly at this sunset moment," I said, "Let's skip the studio tonight and paint the scene." I couldn't find a pastel paper. So I used a stretched frame to draw. My camera did a good job to catch the subtle blue dramatic tune.

At the Studio, I split the slate into halves, showing interesting mirrored images. Shall we call this camp fire dancing? Only two natural dialogs in one hour on this beautiful Sunday.

Steve Jobs in China

Steven Jobs now is very popular in China! My father told me that his autobiography really inspired people. "His most expensive belongings were a pair of glasses and a mattress." Sounds like a saint. "My first office computer was Apple II," my father recalled.

"The success of silicon valley costs lives!" my friend commented.   

Cubicles

Office cubicle is an American invention. It's boring and inhumane. Here is a nice essay: "Death to the Cubicles!"
Gervais Tompkin says "simply designing a better cube is like putting lipstick on a pig."
