Oil Painting Class
The new term of oil painting class finally started after weeks of holidays. My instructor seemed to have gained even more followers, the class is especially packed this term, we even had to bring in an extra easel from the next door classroom. There were quite a few familiar faces in the studio, and the […]

Oil Painting Class
Completed one of my most satisfying piece of work tonight! There are still lots of room for improvement, but the result looks encouraging enough that I want to continue practicing and seek further improvements in this ever more enjoyable hobby of mine.

Creative Mondays
Went out for an early lunch today, followed by a quick walk at IKEA and some book browsing at a bookstore before heading home. Started working on an “urgent” design project for my church before ending my day with oil painting class. My creative Mondays is becoming more routine, and life seems to be slowly […]

Creative Mondays
Bought myself a new “toy” this afternoon, I’m hoping that it will rekindle my joy to sketch. Haven’t tried it yet though as my afternoon was spent helping to babysit my 2 nieces from Toronto. Had my weekly painting class at night and finished the second painting, still found time lacking and had to rush […]

Creative Mondays
Woke up relatively early this morning to start my Creative Monday. Finally finished and sent off the complete set of Powerpoint design for my church, but unfortunately, I didn’t have time to start work on another small freelance design project as I hoped. Started a new painting tonight, this one is supposed to be relatively […]

Creative Mondays
Kick started another 3 months of Monday night painting class tonight, saw many familiar faces, and I’m still very much enjoying the weekly couple of hours of indulgence with oil painting. Suddenly came up with the idea of dedicating my Mondays doing creative works, a day without dull programming and with no particular errands to […]

Back to the Drawing Board
Resumed my painting class after the public holiday last Monday. It’s good to be in a familiar environment, indulging in doing something I enjoy without getting too much attention. Let life resumes to normal after the award ceremony this past weekend, I really don’t quite enjoy to be under the spotlight. I recall reading a […]

Oil Painting
Completed the second painting of my oil painting class tonight, it’s my first animal portrait done in oil! There’s considerable improvement in terms of color when compared to the first painting, but there are many areas that I wished there were more time for me to improve it. Oh well, there’s always hope that the […]

3 Year Anniversary
Today marks the 3rd anniversary of me returning to HK, time really flies. I was 30 when I came back, and now I’m 33. Jesus carried out His master salvation plan when He was my age. Look at me, what have I done in these 3 years? I’ve leisurely finished a MSc. degree to study […]

HK Geopark
My family and I joined a local tour to visit the Geopark yesterday. I totally forgot about it until the night before, had drinks with friends till rather late and ended up sleeping very little before the trip. As a result, the trip seemed rather exhaustive, I spent every minute on the bus and on […]
