My Visual Diary...

Sharing some drawings I did when I was conducting my figure drawing classes.  These poses were usually 15 minutes each.  One of those things I wanted to do when I retired is to put together all my figure drawings and turn it into a book for publishing. 

I did an A4 painting for my Daughter's 21st Birthday. The last time I did something for her was many years ago when she needed some motivation for her PSLE exam. I drew some random motivational cards for encouragement. I usually slipped them inside her school bag to surprise her when woke up in the morning for school. My son gets them too.

These were some of the concept drawings for my new series "My Pet and I". My plan is to paint them digitally and perhaps print them, then give away as Christmas gift in 2020.

A glimpse of what I am planning for my new series.  These are very rough quick drawings done on recycle papers.  The idea has a bit of Fernando Botero's influence with a hint of retro vibes.

   Its summer,  everything in my garden is blooming even when the bugs are still bugging.

There is something about the plants and those bugs residing in it that is  bugging me  non-stop  to do something about it. Coming up I will share with everyone my new series 'Bug Bugging the Plant'.

Have been moving away from the subject matter "Girl" for a while.  Thinking of trying something new.  This was drawn with Adobe Illustrator. Wondering how this will look if it is carved on wood and print on Japanese rice paper.

Here, let me share with you how they look like...

I love spending time dressing up the girls with different hair color, hairstyle and clothing.

Oh! The bugs are growing on my flowers!

Complementary Color Scheme. Working with something simple here with only one subject matter - Onion. Split Complementary Color Scheme. I used tangerine fruit, turnip and 

The most pleasurable thing in the world is to draw; and to be able to draw anything you want.

"this, too, shall pass" However, during the state of chaos, one should still try to act or appear at one's best; to try to make a good impression.

Complementary color scheme and contrast of warm & cool value to bring about a simple design. Analogous color scheme and a spot of warm accent color for focal attention.  Analogous color scheme and working with value contrast to give a sense of depth to the entire composition.

  These Chinese looking dolls were drawn in beginning of this year. I was inspired by the Chinese festive mood. Lately, I have this new addiction to Adobe Illustrator. I started exploring on the pen tool and find it really fun. I am going to use it often from now onward.
