Bye-bye Q2
After writing out the last character from the book of 1000 Chinese character samples on Mon., a huge relief was immediately felt. The rest of the week was taken relatively lightly as I soak in my greatest achievement of the Q2 projects! Most other Q2 projects will carry on to Q3 untouched 😅. Before getting […]

Goodbye?
After 5 weekly classes, I said good bye to my seal carving teacher and classmate on Thur night. Though I probably wouldn’t recommend the instructor to others, I did learn from him what’s needed to carve my own seals for a recent project. During my calligraphy class that afternoon, my teacher said he’ll hand down […]

A Packed Week
Joined my fellowship b/s for lunch on Tue. after my calligraphy class. Went to see a movie on Wed. with some fellowship brothers. It’s good that they still didn’t seem to see me as an outsider even though I stopped joining my Friday night fellowship since the pandemic started more than a year ago. The […]

Back From Vacation
Got home late last night (~11pm) from a 10-day vacation in Singapore with my family… It was my first time in SG, I was particularly taken away by its greenery everywhere, both indoors and outdoors. They truly live up to their “City in the Garden” reputation! It was a much needed vacation to rest my […]

Creative Monday
Originally planned to do some volunteering in the afternoon, but the fai chun making session with the elderly was cancelled due to cold weather. With the freed up time slot, I took a stroll through the Old Master Q exhibition at the mall near my studio. Saw some of the hand drawn comics by the […]

Loving Vincent
Finally watched Loving Vincent this early morning (9am)! I actually woke up at around 4:30am and couldn’t fall back to sleep, too excited? I was able to finish my regular morning routine (i.e. breakfast & newspaper & devotion (sometimes)), then running practice and shower at home before heading out for the cinema. A very productive […]

(Starving) Artist, seriously?
It was back in April when I attended my first ever Maker Faire in HK. I took the opportunity to explore the late Zaha Hadid designed building, slowly strolling and ascending the floors before stumbling upon a workshop for DIY bookbinding. One of the instructors gave out postcards she designed, and it just so happened […]

Creative Monday
Finished my Monday evening barista classes last week, back to the luxury of freely indulging in creative things that fills the empty part of my soul on this Creative Monday! Watched a documentary of one of my favourite artists – Vincent Van Gogh. Learnt that he dabbled in many different jobs before settling into a career […]

Creative Monday
A rainy day, not good to do any outdoor sketching, instead spent the afternoon finish reading the 5 illustrative books by Jimmy S.P.A. I borrowed from the library awhile ago. The 5 books were of a series named Paradise Lost (失樂園), all published in 2005. The series is consisted of many individual chapters, each illustrating an […]
