First 3D Print
Did some website work today prior to having a little fun with the 3D printer. It took less time than expected to setup the printer, I was able to quickly make my first 3D print using a sample print file that came with the machine. It was a bit of a transformative experience seeing the […]

Creative Mondays?
Hardly did any work today. Got in the studio this morning thinking I’ll spend the day to design one last cartoon character before going over some website work. I was surprised that the 3D printer I ordered a few weeks ago got delivered. I’ve yet to finish the 2D products I’ve been designing for the […]

Don’t you just love films that compels you to reflect upon your life and question your life’s purpose?! Am […]

Sculpting the Living World

Went to the nearby Museum of Art afterwards […]

Working Holiday
Here I am in the studio working on a website for my church on Good Friday. After indulging myself with re-learning life-drawing last week, I went back to being an IT guy this week. Cleared up some website work, but didn’t get to design some cartoon characters as I originally planned. Oh well, I think […]

Saturday Classes
My semester of Saturday classes have finally come to a close today! Since the start of the year, almost all my Saturdays had been occupied by classes (2 painting classes and 1 rubber stamping class), that’s from 4pm till 9:30pm! As much as I enjoy oil painting, doing 2 back-to-back classes on the weekend seemed […]
