New Daily Routine

In the last couple of weeks, I’ve started a new daily (almost) habit of practicing calligraphy and portraiture drawing using a brush pen.  As much as I love doing art, I’m still very skeptical about the idea of becoming a full-time (starving) artist. Since my uncle got really sick earlier this year and later passed […]

Creative Monday

There was time to spare after I finished my chinese calligraphy homework, I attempted for the first time to do animal portraiture with a real calligraphy brush on chinese rice paper.  Feel really inadequate with my skill.  Think I’m much better off to stick with my faithful brush pen for now.

New Year’s Resolutions

Made some new year’s resolutions (wishes), some work related while the rest are more personal.  Most of the resolutions are things I’ve been wanting to do for […]

Visiting Uncle

My family insisted on visiting my uncle at his home this afternoon even though he was reluctant to see people after his liver cancer relapsed.  Joined by a couple of our relatives from Mainland, there were a total of 9 people visiting! At my uncle’s home, my young nieces from Toronto were kept busy playing […]
