In My Element

I am most in my element when I’m up in the air.

To be at home in the heavens again ☁️ #flickstitch #artbeatsmath #fueledbygrace

Phases of Flight: from urban sprawl to paradise
Phases of Flight: from urban sprawl to paradise ✈🌴

 

90% of the time i spend while on a plane is looking out the window and taking pictures. My feet is kept grounded being in wondrous awe as a mere speck crawling in this big, wide, sky— much less the universe.

Now if only i could afford to fly more often…

Illustrated: Girls on Fire by Patmai

Illustrations of our D-group made by the amazingly talented Patmai De Vera!

She gave these to us as early Christmas presents 🙂 I personally love how she captures each of our personalities and the style with which she wrote our names. Also, this is something to be crossed out of my bucket list: “To be drawn by at least one of my favourite illustrators!”

We love you Patmai for using your gift to bless us ❤

Life update

A mix of a personal entry + my art! Today I had a Christmas party with my d-group friends from our fellowship. It was totally fun, our party theme was “What did the fox say” xD — I was the mouse, Minnie Mouse. (Heck yeah randoms collide) xD

But I don’t wanna post my own photos here, but please take a look at my gift arts to my darling friends.

In work, I mostly have been doing vector art, and I fell in love with clean lines again—and this time, I could actually DO clean lines! I am so happy! I couldn’t fully colour all of these because of the time constraint (I had to print them as well). It was also my first time trying to do like serious typography for their names. I admit, it’s not perfect, but they loved it nevertheless. 🙂

State of Nirvana: An Exhibit

Color Theory & Rendering was one of my favourite classes back in college and towards the end of the trimester in 2010 we held an exhibit entitled “State of Nirvana”. The artworks were basically collages we made digitally, which were then printed on canvas then painted on with acrylic. Our professor was local artist and contemporary painter Sir RM De Leon– I just remember him being so passionate in what he does and that in turn really inspires me.

…Truly missing painting now. Hmm, I have a blank canvas in my room. Perhaps I shall break out the acrylics again 🙂
