What a year 2010 has been! By the time you read this, I am very much on my way leaving town, looking forward to meeting Cynthia’s family and enjoying the serenity of an Internet blackout. Back to basic, somewhere in Indonesia. I can imagine how I would hear the ringing in my ears at night, [...]

Sea Turtles, I “AMP” You!
November 25th, 2010 9 Comments
It is time like this when I feel like I am staring in the movie “Troy”. Not as Brad Pitt of course, but rather one of the many soldiers who gets his point-one second of camera time. But that is OK. As someone who is reborn into this new generation of whoever participates wins, [...]
I Blog Because …
October 6th, 2010 7 Comments
My blogger buddy Walter has written an excellent post on why he blogs regularly. I have been wanting to write a similar topic for ages. So why not do it now? I blog because … I am highly imaginative? I have this special ability to look pass the pathetic statistics and number of comments in [...]
Titled Nightmares – A Doodle
October 2nd, 2010 2 Comments
If you are amongst the rare ones who follow my doodling career, you may realize that this picture contains quite a fair bit of detail. Quite possibly one of the more ambition drawings I have worked on to date. It is titled “Nightmares”. One early morning, before the break of dawn, before the train started to [...]

The Story Of A Boatman (La Historia Del Barquero)
August 19th, 2010 4 Comments
This is my latest doodle titled “Boatman And A Girl Together With Other Parties“. I have not been drawing for quite some time. Drawing can be therapeutic. Especially if you have a rough day at work (like mine today). Each stroke scraps away a little bit of the trouble in your mind. By the time [...]

Seat “Chopping” And A Non-Existence Bazooka Lens
December 16th, 2009 30 Comments
Two unrelated stories to share here. One from Cynthia. One from me. What is seat chopping? For those who live in Singapore, we all know what this means. For my overseas readers, no, we don’t literally chop seats here. We simply don’t chop anything in Singapore. Not even the trees. We move or relocate the [...]

Working Title: Wet Shoes And The Journey To Las Lilas
December 6th, 2009 8 Comments
Some readers shared with me that it is fun watching the slide show of the behind-the-scene footage on how I draw. Since we have already established the fact that each object of my recent drawings is formed with rationale, I shall focus on the story behind this drawing and showcase the behind-the-scene footage instead. Some of you may [...]

Composition of Bleeding Heart And The Thread Of Fate
November 19th, 2009 2 Comments
I wonder if painters explain their works under normal circumstances, or let the viewers, big time critics to figure out what the artworks really mean, the inspiration that was behind the drawings. Like Michelangelo’s “The Creation of Adam”. Did he explain to the then media that the blob behind the painting of God is indeed a brain? [...]

Working Title: Bleeding Heart And The Thread of Fate
November 18th, 2009 9 Comments
This, could be quite a significant piece of drawing. One that pivots my art direction. It is the first time I explore different perspectives by rotation. You should be able to see four faces (by rotation), and a subject with at least four different objects. Why ‘at least’? This kind of abstract art, I won’t [...]
