Collection of my illustrations/paintings, be it digital or traditional, of women. Maybe I’ll add quotable quotes about women on each page when I have the time. Hope you enjoy looking!

I’m hooked on Issuu! Here you can read and view commercial publications as well as personals. My favourites are those about illustrations. Yeah, I guess you’d already figured that out ^_^

Big thanks to ANNY for introducing me to Issuu!!!! Thank you so much Anny!

I have not been drawing for quite sometimes already; here’s one made just now.

I flipped it to the right and made few sizes of wallpapers for PC (I’m not sure about Mac, sorry!). Do save it as your dekstop wallpaper if you like. Click on image; right click on larger image and set as desktop background. Enjoy!

I’m still hooked on line work. The challenge at IF is to illustrate ‘Legendary’. This is my interpretation of the legendary fiction character by Lewiss Carroll, Alice. I dunno whether this suits the challenge but here it is. Took 3 hours to complete the line work and I already felt tired. There’s a little bit empty space at the back to draw; will attend to it when time permits.

Lol! i think her dress looks a bit like barcode! Talk about barcode, I went to search the inventor of barcode, lol! Curiosity killed the cat but not me! Thanks to the internet technology i know now who invented barcode. It was invented by Joseph Woodland and Bernard Silver. There! And oh, it wasn’t until 1974 that barcode scanners was employed.

I dream in pink | Watercolor + acrylic

Made this for no particular reason, I kinda missed the fun using watercolor, so that must be it. The background was a mess so I cut off the woman and paint a new background out of acrylic. Ok, maybe this one will add up to my Woman Series drawings.

Here’s the finished drawing of below sketch! The hair shading is not even, maybe I’ll attend to it later.

Dreamy Again | digital sketch

Thought I make use of my new Wacom Intuos 3 Tablet, here’s a digital sketch using pencil stroke in Corel. My husband made me use Corel instead of Photoshop. I think I love the way this program works, Enjoyed every minute of it! Will post the finish drawing soon.

I gave my old wacom tablet to my son and he’s been practising how to use it.

Dream | Collage

I’m digging again today. Found my one and only collage that I did back in 1995. Wow, 13 years back! Lol, now I remember how it all started with the half faced woman illustrations. I thought half face concept is simply unique and frankly, I rather not repeat the same process with the other half.

I have put up a category of Women Series, so that you can browse them.

Materials used: Magazine cuts, sisal string, net, acrylic (for the face) and fake rose petals.

Beauty is in the hair | Digital

I posted this in Monday Artday. The challenge this week is to draw ‘Hair’. Early this year, I made a resolution to take up the Monday Artday’s weekly challenge but I somehow failed. The last time I posted an illo in there was on January 11. Resolutions are very hard to keep, remind me not to make any next year. On wacom, 45 minutes.

Today is not even Monday.
