I was watching a painting video over the weekend. I thought I would try out the things that I learned. I’m still confused when it comes to light source though.
I really want to start doing more conceptual art but I can’t seem to think of anything. Hopefully I’ll start getting inspired soon.
Happy Mother’s Day!!!!
This is one of three quick mother’s day card designs that I made for the NGO I’m working with. They’ve put it up on the website for downloading. Here’s the link: http://www.wya.net/mothersday.html
I used to be really into bookbinding. This just revived my interest. I don’t know when I shall be doing it though…
For a long time I was meaning to bring together and share my notes and tips from the bookbinding workshop this year. It seems like this is just about time to cover this one! ^_^
Topics list:
1. Simple booklet design.
2. How to check and fold the paper?
3. How to prepare the string?
4….
Listened to a very insightful and inspiring talk between Oliver Jeffers and Olivier Tallec. #happydance (at New York Public Library)
I don’t know why but this weekend, I’ve been drawing this little cactus on my notebook. At first, he had hands. But while I was doodling him, I thought that the hands were strange.
Do you see him being so fascinated with his shadow? Well I didn’t do the shadow very well… But he’s fascinated anyways! :D
Libraries are one of my favorite places as a child. I really think that they should be supported. It’s a beautiful place. On that note, I think I should visit the New York Public Library while I’m here. :D

This is something I painted for my friend who asked me to make her a Facebook event banner. She’s having an event featuring Argentine Tango.
I based this off some photos I saw on the internet but I’m pretty far from where I was imagining it to be. But my friend is happy with it so I guess that’s okay for now.
I definitely need to study painting and sketching more. I’ve been trying to draw something everyday but I think I should try rendering something a little everyday as well.
