Swallow Your Hesitation

Most of these paintings are from last semester, but seeing as I hardly posted anything I did in Situation and Environment class, I thought what-the-heck.

A practice piece I did because this was the first oil painting class I've had in my life and I sucked pretty bad at it so it was a piece I worked on to try and get past the learning curve of the medium and subject.

One of the in-class paintings that I actually liked. The foot got smeared because I wasn't careful when storing it on the racks : (

One of our assignments. I wanted to be more experimental with the composition and do something different from the usual things we did in class. That and also because I'm not really pursuing a career in fine arts per say and was wondering if I could do something closer to what I usually do but with the medium at hand.

Another assignment piece. I'm actually not fond of my handling of the skin but I like my handling on other aspects of this painting. When I get more time I'll work more on my oil paintings. I still have a lot further to go.

Overall, not bad for my first oil painting class I think. I had lots of help and critique from other people. I'm grateful for everyone who critiqued (Jun, YunnTsung, Gue, Robert, Zhao Ming etc) and being patient with my questions.

In Late Night - Lumines Remixes

This isn't much but its an update nonetheless (`・ω・´)

Recently I got myself 3 different technicolour brush pens. They're of the hues right next to each of the primary colours. Its an interesting thing to work with colours that are so bright yet trying to mix them all together to get 'duller' tones to bring the pieces together. Lacking proper primaries proves to be challenging too.

Here's a picture I did with 4 brush pens only. Any other colours you see were mixed on the paper with the ink brush pens' colours. Ikebana (Japanese flower arrangements) are really fun to draw. Not your typical 'still life of flowers in a pot upon a table'


I spent Spring Break in Scottsdale, Arizona. Towards the end of my visit there, I was lucky enough to be given the chance to see the new Ducati upclose and personal before it was released to the storefront. They gave us a chance to draw it too. Such nice people ヽ(´ー`)人(´∇`)人(`Д´)ノ~!


Took about 30 to 40 minutes of live sketching it.

Take my drawn Ducati out for a ride and it'll probably blow up in your face ヽ(´▽`)/!

Alright, see you guys in the next post : )

Fever Splash

Haven't updated in ages so I thought of just throwing some stuff up here. Its break time in between Character Design class and I'm running a slight fever. Its probably trying to burn off whatever's causing the sore throat I'm having but its giving me a weird adrenaline rush. I haven't actually had my mind be this productive before.

Got a bunch of technicolour markers and was just experimenting. I like fashion illustrations even though I'm not too good at them so it was me just taking a shot at a slightly different approach.

These were referenced from Vogue France. I'm not entirely sure which month's issue it is but just as a disclaimer if anyone recognizes it.


And another. Anyone feel the Bahamas vibe?

I guess we could consider this a tribute of mine to the death of all the Borders branches around the city. It was drawn in my last session at the cafe with Andrew, Cia Ee and Shadoe.

I'll probably post up more soon. : ) Hopefully.
