Waiting for Silent

Female, with less feminine, wearing man's suit, looks stronger and smarter. Yet, the inner part remain her natural, gentle, sympathy, kindness and patient. In this painting, as usual, the girl looks calm and quiet, but she is not as steady as she looks. She is struggling and waiting, waiting for the silent to come.

Fragrance

Just completed this painting, a mixture of surreal and abstract. The final result was not expected initially but I am pretty happy to see how she is now. Her evolution from the beginning to final is big and interesting. She was creepy and looked like ape, then she turn into bloodless face; and, finally, she's alive and stay in the field of flowers.

The Evolution

June's Hello

There are a few paintings still in progress, and some are nearly finish, left a few steps and it will complete. I was schedule my first solo show with an awesome cafe in August this year; but i'm not sure if it will be success due to my personal matter. I may, just maybe, will migrate to another country in couple of months later. Then, I will have no time to prepare for the show. Everything still not set. And I hate this kind of condition, floating is never a good feeling.

This is one of the work that I was working a month ago. She's waiting for a few brush strokes to complete. I want her to have a vintage and boyish look, then I thought of hat and locket watch. I'm bit into antique locket watch, and this is the reason why this painting still not yet complete. It's because the result of the locket watch is not ideal. It's still need more polish.

p/s: my progress will be slow. I'm right hander and my right hand injured :P

Things & Thought in April to May

It's very hot here. Everyday temperature stay between 84.2 ~96.8 F. I'm getting crazy with it because I can't really draw in hot day. I get sleepy easier. Hope we will have a day of continuous raining to wash away the bad weather.

There are many exciting things happen in my life since April. Firstly, I has schedule to have my first solo show in August. I still not decide the theme and do not sure if I have enough time to prepare for it. Second thing, I might need to move to another country and this will remain as a secret until everything is confirm. Lastly, my boyfriend, Shawn, has just back from Maine, USA last Monday. He bought a lot of things for me, from food to clothes, from bags to stationary. I would say thing never go to bad, even we have bad weather here and we still have some good things happen around.

I guess I will have a post about my gifts after photograph them. That's too many, like 3 bags, 2 purse, 1 pair of shoes, 2 moleskin, a few tubes of oil paint, a box of 72 colors prismacolor, assorted brushes, music box, souvenir, art book, chocolate, maple syrup... just too many :)

Moleskin, something I want to have long ago, and I got 2 moleskin in once. This is so wonderful.One1 is sketchbook and another one is watercolor sketchbook. So today, I start my first doodle in my moleskin. Love the yellowish paper and smooth surface.
