Perfectly lonely

My wings

    Outlines + colours on Illustrator.

Sketch dump

I've always wanted a big beret with a pom pom.

Can you tell?  I like Jeremy Scott.

Un rêve d'enfant

While researching for "little miss little" aesthetic,  I made this illustration. 

Lao bus

Reminisce about the bus ride in Laos...  I don't know how I survived 13 hrs + the bus driver who repeatedly played one thai song through the entire road to Luang Prabang... Next time, I'll skip the bus and go by plane.

I decided to do a serie of photo collage + pencil drawing.  This is the second portrait.  More to come...

Too Fast To Live, Too Young To Die

    A quick sketch and color on PS.

Formerly,  I made a minimalist portrait as a gift for a friend.  Printed , framed and voilà!  Quite simple!

Les symptômes apportent des rêves.  Ces rêves ont,  eux aussi,  un sens.

I admit. I slacked off.  The lack of updates on this blog is depressing.  So, here goes my first new artwork of 2012.  The piece consist of pencil drawing,  ink, and photo collage.  This time around,  I was inspired by combining diverse art techniques.  I'm venturing in mixed media and trying different things. 

It feels like I haven't found my style yet.  With hope,  I'll find my own distinctiveness.  

Korea!

man... why are koreans so stylish! I envy them..wearing funky clothes/hairstyles. Watch to many KPOP recently...not good...not good.

Research

 A couple of research : Mainly, I was interested in learning about the mechanism of the piano and somehow relate it to how the brain processes emotions. At one point, I even wanted to make a surreal film...there is an abstract part though...dun dun dun!

KeyNotes

An outlook on what I've been working on.  My film: KeyNotes.

A preview of Concept/Character Design.

A possible Aesthetic Approach. Think simple and doable!

I'm considering doing a house in 3D. I did a model test, perhaps...a matte painting + camera map. 

New Year

I haven't been able to  update lately and I feel somewhat rebellious these days.  2010 is here, so i'll make an effort of posting my work in progress. My film will probably be my only priority in the next 3 months. Hooray! My non-social life begins (insert sarcasm). Ok...let's just diverge from this topic.

New Year was different. As I was located somewhere in Montreal, this was the first time that I actually felt frozen.  You would think that it only happens in films but I actually had flashes of moments in my life. I heard the countdown echoing loudly in my head but as soon as it hit one... I was in a bubble. As if my head was in a bottle (use your imagination here), my vision became blurry, and my hearing was enclosed from my current environnement.  *No, I did not intake any illegal substances* well alcohol...that's about it. I froze until someone held an arm around me. It probably lasted 2 seconds in real time. The importance is what I saw in that moment. I won't go into details but I did see many faces. Faces of people in my life.  People come and go but sometimes there are just those that you can't seem to forget or have ignored/never thought of... maybe even taken for granted in the past years.  At that moment, I questioned myself.  I was standing there and all I could think was...I miss them. My sense was awaken, the feeling has caught up with me because I've never allowed myself to feel the seperation.  I don't want to dwell in the past, but I'll take it as a lesson and  will further acknowledge the presence of certain individuals in the future. 

The point is... don't take people for granted. Someday it will haunt you...

So, why is there a picture of "PILATE"!  The theme of this song is accurately how I felt frozen.  Take a listen, it might awaken you inner self. 

*WOW, I posted in the wrong blog at first...hopefully it got erased. How embarassing.* 

หลงรัก ปา

Feeling a bit surreal these days...

Pensée de la journée

Self-Reflection works better when your high above the ground.

My head is your mop. 

Sleeping habits

Il pleut dans ma bouche

I killed my "Vans"

So much...for trying.  I had an old pair of checker Vans that were due to be thrown out.  I decided why not recycle it.  I sprayed gesso on the shoes and just doodle with permanent markers. Gosh...I killed it. Everything went pretty much wrong... first the damn "spray can" that clogged every 1 min and then my 2 darn black markers kept dying on me...my patience was "done". This project was due to be doom.

Next time, i'll just buy a pair of white "keds" and some acrylic paint markers!!! Save me from all these problems.
