In celebration of Asian Pacific Islander (API) Heritage Month, I collaborated with the wonderful Asians Airbnb team and created "The Very Hungry Red Panda" art to celebrate the Asian Night Market at Airbnb. The event features 30+ API small local food vendors, and 10 API Airbnb hosts, as well as 30+ API performers, such as singers, dancers, magicians, comedians and so on. The event attracted 1,000+ patrons and generating additional business values towards the local small business owners.
This is also the debut of my inaugural “Animals Save Animals” project. I plan to create new artworks monthly, inspired by the endangered animals from different continents on the earth. It starts with the Red Panda, because, let's face it, it is pretty darn cute. It is also unique to Asia and listed as “Endangered” as its wild population is fewer than 10,000 and continues to decline due to habitat loss and fragmentation, poaching, and inbreeding depression.
The red panda at the Night Market represents the small businesses and artists that need our support. As an artist living in the Bay Area, I firmly believe that art can connect people and promote culture and belonging in our community. She invites you to take part in her journey to discover and save endangered animals.

AirBnB hosted the event for AirBnB employee resource groups with outside invited guests. It was an overwhelming success and the room was very crowded. Everyone has a fun evening.

Honey Bee. (Apis mellifera).-collecting its daily harvest.
Honey bees (or honeybees) are a subset of bees, primarily distinguished by the production and storage of honey and the construction of perennial, colonial nests out of wax. Species of Apis are generalist floral visitors, and will pollinate a large variety of plants, but by no means all plants. Of all the honey bee species, only Apis mellifera has been used extensively for commercial pollination of crops and other plants.
All honey bees live in colonies where the worker bees will sting intruders as a form of defense, and alarmed bees will release a pheromone that stimulates the attack response in other bees.-so beware!

Little Api. This was on a hike up to Peak 1 to take some photos. Api came with - bare feet and all. This photo so captures Api's curiousness and excitability. I really miss not being able to spend time with him - but he left the island the day after I did to stay with relatives near the Mali school anyway.
This photo was taken during a trip to Vorovoro Island in the north of Fiji with TribeWanted (www.tribewanted.com). TribeWanted is the group featured in the new BBC2 documentary, Paradise or Bust
