where you can find some job....

It's been a while in New York City, and most of time what I did is looking for a full time job. A lot of people told me I can find a really nice job with my degree. Most of time, the design job required at least 3 years experiences.

Today, I want to share some website that I find jobs for the most of time.

indeed.com
Indeed.com is a website that is similar as google, but more concentrate on job that is open to people.


freefashiointernships.com
Free Fashion Internships is a website where you can find a lot of internships,which is a great opportunity
 for students to get start. However, most of time you only can find jobs are non-paid .


http://newyork.craigslist.org/

Craiglist is also a great website you can go visit for job hunting, but make sure you double check the company's background before you go to the interview.

Have a great time for job hunting!!

Working in the face II

face with detail

Backside of face, I used wax burs to get the extera wax out.


Working on the face

I have been working on carving face on wax for one week.
When I first start the face I was having some problem with dimensional perspective.
1st face, too much problem with air bubbles.

Now I have improve a lot on wax working and it looks so much better when I first started.

The first face that I carved have a lot of problem, such as air bubbles.

Since I am using adding wax process for my face, I have be aware of adding wax without creating too much air bubbles. As in progress, I have discover I have to add wax when it's "smoking hot."

Theme of the Semester & My show

My theme of the semester is I love Taiwan.
Since I am an International student, and I love my country very much.
I would like to use my own  way to introduce Taiwan to everybody with my jewelry pieces.


For my first series of design is inspired from Taiwanese temple culture.

Eight Infernal Generals is a very common performing group in the Taiwaneses temple culture.

Here is some image of the group.

Eight Infernal Generals have eight different character, and they have different facial painting to  present each individually, so in my design I would like to corporate the color from enamel on the casting pieces.
