Colleagues left the office before typhoon no.8 was hoisted in the late afternoon. Being left alone in the studio with no immediate work to do, I decided to use the time to finish off a cartoon I started on Monday.
I still very much enjoy cartooning, sometimes I imagine what it would be like to be a full-time cartoonist, sketching and inking in front of the drawing board day-in and day-out, like Charles Schulz and Bill Watterson! Wouldn’t that be fun? But seriously, can I make a living doing cartooning/illustrations?
Feeling low lately. Reviewing the first half of 2015, time seems to have just flown by silently, what have I done in exchange of the precious time I’ll never claim back?
I’ve filled this Creative Monday with Art. It started with some cartooning in the afternoon, followed by oil painting and watercolor classes at night. Never had I turned on my laptop for the entire day!
When you were young and didn’t know any better, you were prone to make all kinds of silly unrealistic promises… I think I was 7 or 8 years old when I made the bold promise of buying a Rolls-Royce and hiring a chauffeur for my father. Years passed, but both my father and I still seem to hold vivid memory of that precious moment.
