Zoe Vernier – The Dream Book
Welcome to The Dream Book, a space where I invite you to explore some of my favorite nighttime adventures. In this visual collection of personal dreams, illusions become reality. Every time I wake up from a vivid dream, I try to hold on to every detail. But our short term memories can only hold so […]

Apex After Apex: Watercolor
Welcome to the final post in Apex After Apex. I decided to challenge myself by using watercolors to draw my pen and paper post one last time. My experience with watercolors hasn’t been great because it’s a hard medium to work with. In fact, it might be the most challenging project I’ve ever done. There […]
Otherworldly: Natural Habitat
I’ve been friends with Coral for as long as I can remember, and we got closer after I learned how much we have in common. Coral spends as much time as possible outdoors. Her favorite place in San Francisco is Baker Beach. Her favorite drink is GT Dave’s Kombucha (flavor: Watermelon Wonder), and her favorite […]
Imaginary Paint: Fish Don’t Blink
It’s watercolor time! In honor of painting with watercolors, I decided to paint some adorable little fish. Get it? Because it’s water-color. And fish live in water. Ok. I’ll stop now. I’m not really a fan of watercolors. They always dry either too quickly or too slowly and I’m never able to achieve a solid gradient […]
Art of the Arts: Over the Mountains

Before I really hated working with watercolor; it would bleed all over the paper, colors would run into each other, and […]
And Dim Sum More: High Elevation
Inking is addicting, so I’ve decided to make a series of ink drawings this summer! In preparation for my first year of college in Shanghai, these drawings will focus on different aspects of the diverse city. Each drawing will be based on a photograph I took last summer while in Shanghai. And to spice things […]
Paper Planes: France
Welcome back! For this month’s post, I decided to revisit my 2015 trip to Paris, France. I remember that while walking along tree-lined streets and cafes, I saw incredibly well-dressed men and women pass me by. In addition, (on a less glamorous note), I couldn’t help noticing mow many people smoked cigarettes in Paris than […]
Paper Planes: Welcome Aboard
Welcome everyone! My name is Jennifer and I love all kinds of art. My favorite pastimes include going to the movies, listening to music, and seeing new art exhibits. However, my biggest passion is visual art. I started in preschool with drawing and painting, but over the years I’ve started to experiment with new types of […]
