Sitting right

Sometimes, you just accidentally became creative about something. Or one thing you do leads to another. It can be pretty surprising.

Sprinkle and dust wala magic! II

For process book, I've decided to revisit some of the techniques taught in workshops. So I sprayed a couple of stuffs again. So fun! We should all do this often.

A little song

I woke up today feeling strangely tired. I just want to bury my face in my pilllows, they smell like my hair, they smell like me.. Leaving the bed feels like I am leaving parts of me behind. It's so heartbreaking and sad. Of course I don't always feel this way, but today.. Today is different.

So I got up, had a quick shower, melting cigarette in one hand and the rest of my body in the running shower..put on a new set of pressed shirt with shorts, and went to pack my bag. Brought along my guitar as well. I'm gonna name him Raphael. For some reason, the name sticks with such a beautiful feurengel.

A little photo session before I end it off. Today is a day to be different :) good kind of different.

With love,

Blind willow, sleeping woman

Today I decided to stay home and abort the idea of swimming. 'Forget about it,' the voice inside my head said.. 'It's too hot outside, you might get a heatstroke before getting into the pool..' And my headache began to throb deeply, like an irregular rhythm of an awkward person knocking on my heavy, rosewood door knock, knock... knock..knock, knock. knock, knock, knock...

So I turn on the air-conditioner and the table lamp in my study room, sat down politely by my desk and continue my new Murakami book. Just a few minutes into the book, I was drawn into the ingenious work of art. Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman this is one book I will definitely recommend to all my novel loving friends.

I am now at chapter 5, and now it is time to put my beloved book down. Essay beckons. The horror awaits. My prediction? Sleep is not possible tonight.

Growth




Looking back on my old drawings, it is very very strange. 
I know this person, the person I was when I drew them,
but now I can't really recognize this person anymore. 
Haha, so strange! 







And so I continue to grow, the way I project
changes, but the person I am became more
sensitive to what I see. I want to draw them 
all down. 


Digital painting with a mouse, I was over-challenging
myself. But lucky me, it turned out okay. 
Else my insomnia would come back and haunt 
me until I do this well! 




This cat is probably the tipping point of where I'm gonna 
go afterwards. I was criticized for my line qualities, and
the cat was my experiment and my own workshop. 
And insomnia really did haunt me. 



I'm a child waiting to grow. 
I need a guided mastery !

The Collection Begins







In this new year, many things shifted. We have a new breakthrough in our assignments. Some of us learned to be so much stronger, independent, and creative. I have seen amazing pieces made by my classmates. This is always so refreshing, growing along with so many talented people. Happy 2013 to me and my fellow classmates.
