Busy Work Week
This week was a considerably busy week. Decided last week to apply for a local handcraft fair as an joint “exhibitor” with a friend, and being the last-minute person that I am, I only started working on the application on Monday, 2 days before the application deadline! Rushed into prototyping and photographing products to include in the application, […]

Holiday
Had been a little busy for a week or so as I tried to complete the website for my studio before Q2 ended, just barely made it to have it launched yesterday! Decided to take a day off to rest and not to join the annual protest this afternoon. Spent some solitude time in the […]

Sickness
Woke up with a high fever of 104 degrees early Friday morning. I whatsapped my family group and my brother downstairs was the first to pick up and soon drove me to the hospital. There was a stream of panicky messages among my siblings in the group all the while my parents were still sleeping. […]

DeeSIGNERS 2.0
Finally finished renovating the website for my IT work! It’s been a long time since I last designed a website… I thought about moving away from my IT career and focus my time and energy to learn and explore sustainable and “printable” design, but there are still many areas I wish to explore with the […]

Laser Cutter/Engraver
Have been slightly busy lately experimenting with a low-power laser cutter/engraver, brought back fond memories of the co-op student days working in the laser micromachining lab in downtown Toronto. That was way back in 2002, never expected the niche skill set would still be applicable after 10+ years!

Happy Anniversary
It’s been one full year since I officially yet quietly started 723 Studio Limited. Not much has been accomplished, even the website is still under construction! But it’s intended to be a long term endeavor, and (if God permits,) I’ll take all the time needed to have it set up and run properly just as […]

深夜食堂
For 2 consecutive nights, I’ve held a little social gathering with friends at my studio. It all started spontaneously on Friday when my friends suggested meeting up after their dinner with friends nearby, it just so happened that there were no fellowship that night, and I couldn’t think of a better place to meetup than […]

New Tools
Invested in some Dremel tools today – little by little I’m turning a part of the studio into my dream DIY space, feels a bit like going back to the enjoyable highschool DT/shop classes. I cannot be more thankful for this studio space, really need to devise a plan that’s sustainable economically, environmentally, and socially.

Creative Monday
Wasn’t feeling too well in the morning, partly because of the beer the night before. I noticed that I’m less tolerant of alcohol after recovering from AOSD, should’ve passed the 2nd round of beer, but how often do you get to meet and chat with a good old friend?! Somewhat dragged myself to the studio […]

Creative Monday
It was another Monday night without painting class as my instructor is currently vacationing in Japan. I wish to do some traveling myself too, maybe later part of the year. Without the weekly painting class, I decided to spend the time practicing ink & wash…
