Drawing the Human Figure
Re-learning how to draw the human figure… I bought the suggested book “The Figure” years ago when I took a life-drawing course, I enjoyed the course but I hardly read the book. Good thing I brought that book back to HK, I just started picking up the book again and find it very useful. If […]

Sat. without Painting Classes
There was no oil painting and rubber stamp classes today due to public holiday. I went back to the studio to indulge in a little ink & wash on my own. Enjoyed the occasional solitary time in front of the drawing board with my favorite music playing on the background. Had dinner with my UW […]

Sketching
Spent the last two afternoons sketching. It’s been a long time since I’ve spent such an elaborate amount of time sketching feverishly, apparently I can still do the art…

JCCAC Visit
There was a DIY fair at the JCCAC this weekend, it was a good opportunity for a social activity with a couple of my primary school buddies – one of them is interested in seeing architectural renewal projects and the other knows a friend who has a booth set up there. I didn’t go without […]

Lunch with Old Friend
Met up with a primary school classmate who recently moved back to HK to further his architectural career. Had a long and wonderful chat with him in wildly unrelated topics including environmental issues, government policies, architecture, design, painting, photography, career, family, friends,… I’m really thankful to have such a friend whom I can enjoy an […]

Since moving my painting classes from Monday to Saturday, I no longer continued my Creative Mondays. Kinda miss it, so I’m […]

One of the teammates is actually my primary school classmate, we used to play soccer together before school, during recesses, lunch, and after school! Yes, soccer is a big part of my primary school life. I asked […]

Creative Monday
With the chalkboard project completed on Sat., I decided to start a new project in the studio today. Had been wanting to find a way to recycle paper for a long time, and I just thought of an idea today, I’m gonna code name the project Paper Sofa! Bought some supplies and started the project […]

Soccer Training
I decided to join my friends to try out a weekly soccer training course in November, and tonight was the last session. It’s kind of funny, I’ve been playing soccer since primary school and this is the first time I’ve actually received some kind of formal training. I honestly do feel more fit after the […]

Exhibition Setup
Walked into the office after being away for a couple of weeks, was thinking it would just be another day in front of the computer, but it turned out to be a little more interesting… It so happens that my brother’s demising company is joining an annual exhibit for yet another year. Instead of staying […]
