See Emila Draw series on youtube
Ok, I’m going to name my video See Emila Draw. Here’s a sketch of a woman; in a half-faced style, the style that I love so much. This time you can hear me talk. A bit robotic, dunno why. Hehe. But give me time to fine-tune everything.
This sketch is done in Corel Painter Essential 3. Yeah, I’m way behind…but to buy the latest Version 11, I need USD239.00! But I guess whatever version it is, if you really can and want to draw, any version is good enough.

Video on how I draw
Yay! I was just asking my husband the other on how to record what I draw on laptop. He told me how and this is the result. It’s just a simple drawing of a girl. A complete drawing means bigger file. I am going to show simple ones.
Mind me, this video is spontaneous, I didn’t really plan well. You might want to laugh as my tablet-pen was running here and there. And sorry, I didn’t record my voice…I sounded bad on video.
Drawing was done in Corel Painter Essential 3.

On Saturday morning…
…we went to Titiwangsa Lake after having breakfast at Restoran Haslam.
Wanted to make this a routine but last Saturday, we couldn’t make it. Went there a week before last week. Previously, it was not that full when we reached Titiwangsa Lake around 9am. But today, it was so full! I get to ask a boy with a fishing rod in his hand, “Dik, ada acara apa ni? Pertandingan memancing ke?” The boy replied, “haah, kak.” Ok there was a fishing competition this morning, no wonder. We made few rounds and luckily we found a spot.
And the three of us, spent time doing things we love; Yassin with his cycling, me sketching, husband taking videos.
Didn’t bring my camera as my bag was full..just relying on my phone camera.

Here are some of the sketches I got to draw on lovely Saturday morning:
Epiphytic ferns on palm tree
waterlilies
Later on, we went to another lake! hehe…Putrajaya Lake Garden. I love it there, we got the field in front of the Millennium Monument all to ourselves. There’s no other family except some guards and landscape workers.

Lil’ Guardians
NEW! Lil’ Guardians, illustrated by me! It is a collection of 30 flower cards and each flower is illustrated with its Lil’ Guardian. On the reverse side is a photograph with interesting bite size info. Some of the photos I took around my mom’s garden and some at Putrajaya. The info is compiled by Linda Tan. Now available at Kinokuniya KLCC.
Not sure of the price yet, will go to Kino and buy one for myself, maybe today.
