    Fairy Series: #6 Faye

    Faye by Emila
    Faye | Micron Pen & Watercolor

    I’m using one color scheme for this fairy; and maybe for the next ones. Hehe…no, I’m not running out of watercolors, it’s just that I need to change concept once in a while and I thought this looks pretty neat.

    So, 20 more fairies to go!

    Throwback Thursday: Yassin at 3 – 5 months

    Yassin started responding to our voice by smiling. He was more alert and interested in everything that went on around him.

    Yassin began to talk – he started to make all sorts of repetitive, high-pitched giggles, shrieks and noises. He squealed and laughed with delight and made “raspberry” sounds with his lips.

    He could accurately reach out with one hand and trap an object in a mitten-like grab. He would inspect the object carefully and yes, you guessed it right, put it in his mouth.

    Fairy Series: #5

    Ella by Emila
    Fairy #5: Ella

    Meet Ella, the new addition to my fairy series. I have been behind schedule and might not be able to complete all 26 fairies by end September, so I am extending the challenge to a new deadline, October 21st (haha, talk about own rules and own game! Syok sendiri!). I will be turning a year older on this date and would very much like to complete the series to mark the special day. Haha! I know, I know ,but this is the only reason I can come up with for not completing the challenge ;P Blek. Ok I try to complete at least half of it. I’ve done up to #5, so maybe I could draw 8 more by end of this month.

    Juggle – Illustration Friday

     Just so you know, Emot can juggle too.

    I’ve been busy with works but managed to steal few hours to do this digital drawing. Hopefully in few days time, I will be able to draw more. As usual, I used Adobe Illustrator for preliminary sketching and used Photoshop for effect and texture.

    Goodies in the mailbox!

    Ooh goodies! I love getting snail mails from friends! The last time I received a real mail from friend was over 20 years ago–from my penpal, Melissa. We somehow lost contact. She used to send me friendship pins, stamps and beautiful cards. I am glad to have made friends with such talented artists/friends from all over the world and to be exchanging arts with them! I hope our friendship lasts long and am looking forward to more exchange! Thank you all for the lovely arts!
