My first experience in the Dr Sketchy sessions. Pretty excellent.

OIC Portrait Day

2007-12-05T00:49:00.001-08:00

Made some sketches at the OIC Portrait day on Saturday. It was great fun and I thought I got to practice my highlights and tried chalk pastels with ink on craft paper which had a pretty interesting effect.

A sketch I did in Barcelona while I was sitting in a tiny cafe sipping chocolate out of a bottle.

A beautiful song by Lisa Ekdall that inspired this piece of work...

I haven't been doodling much of late, but thought I share with you guys a doodle I did many moons ago. I kind of like the way it turned out. Was trying out painting on chinese calligraphy paper (the type you use to practise your letterings one.) Thought the effect turned out quite nice, so I did a couple more… will post it up more soon…

So far, this is one of my most enjoyable projects… The story is about a girl who has a secret penpal, a man who lives on the moon, and one fine day, she disappears for good.

lights! Camera! Action!

Did the production design for this film (telly movie), was shown on the trail HD channel on Starhub. So, guess not many people saw it, but I personally quite liked the film and how the visuals came out. Coz it was shot on HD, I emphasized on very strong colours for the character's rooms and environment. And really added alot of textures to the mis-en-scene. ;-)

Just thought I share another piece of work I did many years ago for the National arts Council AR. It also belongs to a series of stuff for the chapter dividers, but this one is my favourite piece. Don't quite remember what I wrote though… I used my old calligraphy pen (from secondary school days wor… super old and rusty) to create these strokes.

Many moons ago, I made a booklet for a respected lecturer/mentor. This is the cover of the book. I illustrated using chinese brush and ink on cartridge paper, then scanned the illustrations in for the layout. The binding is hand swen.
