Creative Monday
Got a free ticket to see an art exhibition today. It seems to be targeting at the very wealthy art collectors, and I find it amusing that many foreign galleries (Paris, London, New York, etc.) are here selling arts made by native Chinese artists, it seems as through they’re trying to make a fortune off […]

Creative Monday
My Creative Mondays are becoming more and more routine – sketching in the studio in the afternoon followed by oil painting class in the evening. Still very much enjoying it.

Creative Monday
The typhoon Usagi didn’t make as much of an impact as expected, all typhoon signals were cancelled before noon. I went to the studio and made a couple of sketches in the afternoon. My Creative Monday was concluded with my weekly oil painting class at night. Spoke very few words for the entire day, enjoyed […]

Creative Monday
Had a particular productive Creative Monday today! In addition to my regular weekly oil painting class at night, I attempted my first ever graffiti work in the afternoon! The reason that I could do graffiti is that I’ve finally found a dirty and under-utilized industrial flat as studio space! I plan to set up a […]

Creative Monday
Gave myself one last day to reminisce the earlier Hawaii vacation by going through the photos in the afternoon. I do kind of miss seeing the ubiquitous and boundless horizon of the Pacific Ocean and the spontaneous exploration of the Big Island with a couple of newly met friends. Started another 3-month weekly oil painting […]

Creative Monday
Resumed my Creative Mondays. Missed the previous 2 painting classes because of the Hawaiian trip, so I went to class early tonight to play catch up. Painted more than 3 hours straight, made my best attempt to paint what the instructor claimed to be a difficult painting. Other than the slightly crooked shape, I think […]

July 1st, 2013
Thought hard about joining the July 1st protest to show my disapproval of the current Chief Executive of the city, but chickened out the last minute. I could have blamed it on the poor weather or the tiredness from running, but I know good well that those are nothing but excuses. I still very much […]

Another Painting Course
Spent the entire afternoon catching up on my reading of a design blog, and still hasn’t quite caught up yet… Started a new oil painting course at night. Well, it’s basically the same weekly course I’ve been taking, just painting different pictures. I’m reluctant to graduate, my Creative Mondays just wouldn’t seem complete without the […]

Monday Without Painting
It’s been a long time since I had a Monday without the weekly painting class, the first class for the new course will start next Monday. Spent most of the day to catch up my reading on an online architecture/design blog. Also spent a little time to rest and to read the bible, came across […]
