江慈 (2)

my dad breeds birds and sells them for a living.

as a kid, whenever i was in my "i-am-a-ninja" mode, practicing my deadly kung fu moves i picked up on TV, i would scare his birds.

 

not because i want to, but because we had thousands of doves and pigeons at home. they were everywhere.

 

my dad would yell at me everytime that happened. so when i drew the birds the background taking flight as the warriors battled, i thought of my dad.

 

and thats why i named it after him.

"江慈" means "generous river".

yea, chinese names are epic like that.

 

take that, mike.
