Ecoprint Process

It will never be perfect, but I will always see it as perfect in imperfection. September was the month when I truly struggle to finish up my exhibition products and display. Personally it's not about how it looks at the end but the process that I went through, each has stories, the learning curve I've learnt and the struggle that I went through. Each of the artwork was the witness of every bump I am facing. September such a very challenging month where everyone got sick, from me, husband and dad.

The result is something I really proud of, biggest milestone of 2018 I have to say.

108 by GMBB Project

What you saw here just a glimpse of my eco print project which was my main feature in this exhibition. It took me 3 months to explore and experiment and I can see myself doing more of it in the future. The exhibition has pushed me to achieve a wonderful result. I will share more of the pictures of finish products and also the exhibition of GMBB project on my next post.

It is your chance to witness 108 artist from various background under the same roof. Make your way to visit all of us and support our local artist and their artwork.

Something in-between

Water Colour Drawing

My drawing skill getting rust. Life starting getting busy, I wish I can slow down and taking few steps back but doing nothing just killing me. I determine to finish off every page of my miniature book with bird drawing...Time becoming too short.

BLAM at Jaya One

My first event after being hibernated for many months. Received a very good response and I had a wonderful time meeting up with many beautiful people who passionate attended my workshop. Getting help from my angel Shasha... Can't describe how tiring due to long hour... but it's always nice to be surrounded and communicate with people. Getting their first hand respond is always precious.
