    Digital scrapbooking

    My first attempt.

    Materials used: cotton piece, paperclip, envelope, papers, digital photo and Yassin’s artwork. Font done with wacom in photoshop. This is fun! I should do this more often!

    I know it’s lack of elements, will try to add more next time. If you like the envelope element to integrate with your own background, let me know, I can e-mail you the psd.

  • ABOUT ME

    Entertainment Week

    Bobby Revell tagged me with a really cool meme entitled My Entertainment Week. Just write a little under the three topics: Books, TV and Music.

    Books:
    I’m finding time to read books nowadays. It seems that my work has taken all the spare times that I have. I’ve got “Life of Pi” from my best friends, Helmy & Daliza, which I only read up to Chapter 2. I’ve been wanting to continue but I think I have to start all over again as I forgot what was it all about.

    Anyway, I like to read thin books so that I can finish reading in less than one day! Books that I love includes Truman Capote’s My Side of The Matter & Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Francoise Sagan’s Bonjour Tristesse, ER Braithwaite’s To Sir with Love, John Buchan’s 39 Steps, Alain-Fournier’s Le Grand Meaulnes & Laurie Lee’s Cider With Rosie. I also love the classic The Old Man and The Sea.

    TV:
    I love all 3 CSIs, Law & Order: SVU, Prison Break, Sex & The City, House MD & Oprah Winfrey Show. I also indulge myself with the E! Channel!

    Music:
    Well, I like all sorts of musics! But as I’m getting older I prefer something like this; by Fiona Apple:

    Or something oldies, say by Earth, Wind & Fire:

    But do not be surprised as I might later switch to something real heavy! 😛

    Am totally out of idea, just got up from a fever. I don’t wanna miss the IF challenge, so here’s Grin; he’s into heavy metal and his idol is Yngwie Malmsteen.

    Here’s Somewhere Over the Rainbow by Yngwie (click arrow to play).

    Will draw something good if time permits. Hope y’all have a great weekend!

    Garden – IF

    We’re Meant Together | Watercolor + Prismacolor

    This week’s theme in IF is ‘Garden’. I was looking for a subject to draw when I noticed some tiny plants waved at me from under the shrubs as if they were saying “pick us, pick us, we’re photogenics”. Of course I really have to pick them because they’re such wonderful subjects. Really had joy painting this one, enjoyed every minute of it!

    The Fairy Lilies and the wild plants complement each other very well, don’t you think so?

    Done in watercolor, enhanced with Prismacolor. 3 hours. Paint directly from nature, picked some for color studies.

    Have a great weekend, y’all!
