I’m Baaack

Went out and had a delicious banana shake to start the year. 🙈💕

八月ー 九月 (August to September):

☁ Mesmerized by Childe Hassam’s works. ✨ ☁ School is getting on my nerves huhuhu 😭 I’ve been trying to sleep as early as I can. ☁ Attended a Google talk arranged by local tech enthusiasts and got myself a cool Google shirt! 👌 ☁ My mother went to Dumaguete and jokingly said her to buy MLP pillows. Days later, I had Pinkie Pie beside my blanket. 🌈 ☁ This year was probably the best acquaintance party we had in school. Maybe because they invited an actual band instead of Spotify music. 😂 ☁ Our band also got the chance to play at the partay. 🎉 Hope we would play more this year. ☁ Post card by Littlemisspaintbrush from Kawaii PH ❤

Life lately 😐

⛅ First thing's first, is that I HAVEN'T EATEN ANY OF THIS YEAR'S AVOCADOES 😞

I get my avocadoes from friends and relatives who are lucky enough to have their own avocado trees and it always gets crazy when it's in season. Somehow this year, the trees are late and I felt a missing piece of summer when I didn't celebrated it with my avocadoes. Huhuhu

⛅ I wasn't feeling really good last April when it comes to doing the things I love, I had no motivation and was super out of it and I didn't know why. Back then, my thoughts concluded and blamed some retrograde (lol) and didn't arrive any "final" decision because I always keep changing my mind (which sucked tbh). So I wanted to escaped my out of that through reading volumes and I mean VOLUMES of comics, manga, webtoons, watched youtube videos of every kind until around the first days of May, I found Mateusz Urbanowicz's channel full of the kind of art I love & I want to renshuu(!!). It was also around this time that I felt like I was back on my feet again (but back to square one since I was out of it for the past months even school had ended). Clara Benin's new song also came out in a demo posted on her channel and THIS, THIS was indeed an eye opening thing when I heard it for the first time, always struck by her words. Wrestle helped me so much during that strange time.😌

⛅ So I came back and had my ooh moments together with me and I was straight on with planning personal projects. I started off with a scenery practice with a twitter photoset of Ghibli scenery (WHICH I STILL HAVEN'T FINISHED YET BECAUSE HUHU 💔 I WANNA FINISH IT!). I felt like I was in the zone (lol) and I was soo into it but it got cut off right away because a summer job called in that was supposed to be already there last April but they started late in the middle of May so I suddenly got my hands full 😐 Ended the summer with a tiring job that unexpectedly and barely paid smh (not going back there ever) 💔 The zone is gone but even now I still want to finish what I've started aaa timing sucks hmp.

⛅ SENIOR YEAR!! School started and I kinda miss my previous class since they were all kind of approachable and easy to talk to compared to this year. I observed that I don't talk much to this class but we'll see as time flies since it's still the first three weeks of school so 🌞 I also observed that I suddenly have more time in between periods and that maybe I could be more productive instead of sleeping & staring at the open space haha 🙆

Let's just see how everything goes

2015: Watercolor My Hearts Content

The very first thing I remember myself drawing was at my mother’s office 11 years ago. Then I got bored… until I saw my mother’s desk of colorful office supplies *_* It was paradise back then lol. I would grab highlighters, pens, glue, tape, sticky notes/ post-its….etc etc. I also used their leftover fancy papers *_* And so, I’ve been drawing and painting my life hihi.

(And up to this day, I’d visit mom’s office usually once/twice a week and still doodle on her little notepad! Sometimes I use her scanner for scanning my drawings and paintings >:D)

So I’ve recently started out this blog and I am really sorry for the hiatusss > *presses START buttton*

In the remaining days of late November 2014, I decided to double my savings to buy watercolor for my own christmas present. And I did! I bought it before Christmas. Hardwork really does pay off hihi

The stuff I did last month and this month:

An Innocent World Lolita dress

-

And so far my best watercolor doodling

Queen Elsa

January 11, 2015 - 1 am in the morning - ordinary short bondpaper. yep. I was painting another piece that night, then I failed. So I doodled an eye on a normal paper, and then it suddenly turned out to be a familiar one, so I painted  out the other eye, nose, mouth… and BAM. I was shocked to see it was Elsa. I really didn’t know what happened so I just leave it as a mystery hihi.

Unfinished X)

I would like to try updating my waterworks monthly to achieve this goal. But I still can’t promise about hiatuses and avocados ;_; im sorry

Hopes and dreams to everyone

Seifuku Shirt

How I made my last-minute seifuku shirt

I came up with a school girl costume bc i thought it would be a lot of fun to paint paint paint X)

I first started sketching what the shirt looked like and what colors should I use. I decided to go with purple because I want to pair it with my lavender skirt (◑‿◐)

I used a plain white shirt (my mom had an extra :3 ), some masking tape and Liquitex Acrylic Color or acrylic paint. Simple as that! :3

Thank you Erica for the blue paint! T T The other reason why I picked purple because I only had purple paint. im sorry

Imperfect white spaces suck so

Yay!

It turned out to be okay (i think). It had a little paint on the sleeves because of my clumsiness hehe ooops. The paint I used was permanent and water resistant so curse my clumsiness > < I tried bleaching it but it didn't work so I just accepted my fate.

It was a lot of fun. 'Til next time! (◑‿◐)

Pianoforte

A school-based art project: Acrylic on Ceramic Plate

The best thing about this project was that the material was so easy to get. One small plate like this was around less than a dollar (25 pesos for a heavy white plate ftw) from a local general merch shop. It was more quality than I expected it to be. I also bought a plate stand for this cutie.

For now, it’s sitting at the top of the piano because yas why not. I’m thinking of making more of these since it’s a lot cheaper than canvas boards hehe. 

I believe that 2016 is soooo going to be cute <3

PANTONE Color of the Year 2016

silly moments of the first months of 2024 with a tadtaran (cutting board) series i call "bloop bloop". delighted to have them out in the open w the island's art community last february :>

hinimo sa bohol, 2024

An indian almond tree (or talisay as we’d like to call it) near our classroom just had its annual shedding from red to the color of the year and it’s so refreshing to see this after the last weeks of school. ✨

Can’t wait for vacation.

Summer Fiesta in the City & the Miscellaneous

Things of the week in photos 📷

The city had a special nightly tabo (market/open house) for a week where resorts, restaurants and cafes in/near the city got together and placed booths at the city hall grounds. The event was also incorporated with live music (someone played Mundo at the last day huhu) 💕

Me and my friends went out and watched Infinity War 😥

Watercolor on school notes should be a series hmm

My last bag of green tea that my aunt brought back from Japan, so far this was the best green tea I’ve ever tried huhu I turned it after into a facial scrub to commemorate its existence.

Hope your having a good week too! 🙆🌸
