arts: recent works

latest work: 'wonder'

i call this piece 'wonder'. wonder because this is exactly how i feel now. wonder what will become of me after my impending case, wonder what will happen to my career, wonder what's going on with my life. looking up with muddled, confused head into the sky which was as confused. hopeful that the peeking sun will shed some hope. the flower is the one-person that always stood-by me all this time - my wife. this piece was drawn on B4 sketch book, added the color with Faber-Castell 'watercolour pencils'. with a brush & some water, i got myself a water-color painting. did some minor touch-up over the photoshop.


some previous works: 'portrait of wife' & 'men with t.v. heads'

did these two pieces back in 2006. 'portrait of wife' was sketch on A4-size sketch book in just a couple of minutes. very impromptu. as with the 'wonder', color was added using Faber-Castell 'watercolour pencils', ran it with brush with some water and did some touching up (for the vintage look) over in photoshop. 'men with t.v. heads' - an act of hyprocrisy amongst us. double standards, insincerity. ever similar to switching tv channel. in the fight to climb the corporate ladder, do we not be hypocritical at times? i used photoshop add some dark appearance over the background - cos' in the world of viciousness and hypocrisy, the world seems rather gloomy.
