There’s a few things I want to say today. First, I decided to redraw a portrait I did of chef Niki Nakayama three years ago! I included both in this post, and I think it’s pretty darn obvious which one is the old piece (haha). It’s crazy to see how my sense of design and just all around aesthetics have changed over the years, so I’m excited to see where the future will lead me in terms of my artistic development. 

ALSO I just noticed that around 31,000 people are following this blog. Thank you all, whether you’ve been around since my first post or just joined! 

Next, I wanted to let you guys know that I updated my site: www.chuanmingart.com I’m available again for freelance (editorial) work, both full-time and part-time! So please feel free to spread the word.

You can also follow me on Twitter and Instagram, both of which I update more regularly than Tumblr, so if you want to see more stuff on a regular basis, that’s where you can find me!

Finally snagged a bento box 🍱@nnakarestaurant this week and if you’ve been trying every Saturday at 10am to order one of these $38 bad boys we feel your pain - but that fresh fish alone is worth it 🍣🙌🏽 #lafoodie #sushi #palms #bentobox #nnaka #culvercityfoodie #japanese #togo #pickup #dinner #sushi #seabass #freshsushi (at n/naka) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBR16HRJVQp/?igshid=efjj0e8mf8cy

lotus root croquette • pumpkin puree • nori puree It's been a couple months but I am still thinking of all the fresh, beautiful, and enchanting food from n/naka! 💖✨ Hands down one of the best fine dining experiences I have ever had. Chef Niki and her staff were amazing too!

Seriously amazing! Have been wanting to eat here since I watched Niki Nakayama on Season 1 of Chef’s Table. I have been to so many Michelin star restaurants but I really love the creative Japanese food at N/Naka the most. Wow! Especially her signature abalone pasta. #nnaka #nnakarestaurant #dallasplasticsurgery #dallasplasticsurgeon (at n/naka) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo3TLsQgNmi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tkr5y5zo0orl
