sketching.

Was doing some sketching while working on something on the job, one of the 

more successful sketches i've ever done on a shop or space, all done free hand 

using just a pen in one try! Thus the slightly messy looking sketch.

 A close up of the pen sketch.

Traced sketch of interiors.

Work has been quite a roller coaster ride and getting really busy so i'm slowly working on 

the next post, which is taking quite a while! A post about a trip to Prague last year 

that's filled with a lot of visuals! So stay tuned to this little blog space!

Getting back.

slowly getting back to doing what i love! working on some crafts, accessories

 and a little idea in my head. So a sneak of what's to come and amidst the busy schedule!

New and exciting.

After always having admired works from various artists showcasing their talent 

in watercolor, I finally got down to getting some paint to kick start 

my new found interest, watercolors.

So here are the two first works i've done, trying to experiment with handling 

and using watercolors the right way, and may this be the start 

of more works to come!

DIY: Animal Jewelry Holder

 

Decided to get creative and do another small yet very simple diy project!
Inspired by the many white animal figurines i see both on the net and
also in stores, here's what i did to one of my ceramic figurines
I had lying around at home.

What you'll need:

1. A Figurine ( old, new, something left on your shelves collecting 

dust which needs a new look!)

2. White acrylic paint and a paint brush and palette

Squeeze and mix an ample amount of paint and water, get painting!

* make sure paint is thick so it covers the colors and corners of your figurine.

Remember to paint an even layer over and allow it to dry. 

Paint two to three coats of paint and allow to dry under the sun or 

overnight to ensure each layer is totally dry.

That simple and here you've got yourself a jewelry holder for 

your bracelets or even...

a room accessory to go with those potted plants!

Note: also try different colors or neon colors

A small project that is simple and pretty much effortless that anyone 

could do, so it's time to give those dust collecting animal figures an 

updated look and a fresh coat of paint!

GOODEYEDEER mall invasion exhibition

After much waiting it's finally here, the Goodeyedeer t-shirt competition that was held back in 2010 had their first ever exhibition held at the arts house, showcasing all the works of the winners of the t-shirt competition that had to do with none other than the little red dot, Singapore.

The program lined up for the event encompassed a runway show of the t-shirt design donned by mature models with live looping performance by Randolf Arriola, prize presentation and also the sale of the designs, where part of the proceeds go to The Business Times Budding Artist Fund to help support the new young creative talents out there.

It was overall a really fun, fresh and exciting experience being a part of this whole competition and getting to know and also meet the people who were a part of or the ones behind the GED community. Thanks for such a great time and for all the efforts put in to make this happen!
