Paycheck
Finally received the first installment of the website project I’m currently working on, it’s been a long time since I’ve received any formal income! It’s always satisfying to have your hard work being paid off whether it be late or not. With this money, I’m more confident about my plan of setting up a small […]

Work Saturday
Seems like all my Saturdays in May were spent in the studio. I prefer being alone in the studio than be surrounded by crowds on the street. Hoped to get some work done, but was stuck with an issue the whole day. I have been trying to set up a version control system on EVE […]

Creative Monday
There wasn’t anything creative about this Monday other than my weekly painting class which itself seems to have become more routine than creative. It was a good day nonetheless, after a couple of hours of trial and error in the afternoon, I was able to tackle an issue in the website project I’m currently working […]

Work Saturday
It’s becoming a bit of a regular Saturday routine for me to spend my time working in the studio… followed by a beer or two. =)

Creative Monday
Couldn’t avoid doing work today as I had to sit in on a conference call this morning at my friend’s office. I accepted a website project last week as I think there’s something I can learn from it, besides, I can actually use some of the money to invest in my R&D work. Doubt that […]

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 […]

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 […]

<< The Figure >>
Took me 5 days to read and practice some of the exercises in the book << The Figure >>, relearned how to draw the human figure, face, hand, etc. Still can’t fully grasp the gist of capturing gestures, movement, and attitudes. Need a lot more practice… Seemingly, this week have been a detour from my […]

A New Start
The first quarter of year 2014 seemed to have passed all too quickly, I seemed to have lost track of time. This may have to do with the fact that I stopped the habit of writing down my daily to-do items since the start of the year. Printed out some DIY daily to-do lists for […]

Creative Friday
Was occupied by work for the last couple of Fridays and couldn’t allocate an uninterrupted period of time to do creative work. It was good to be able to put aside my computer and indulge in a little DIY activity today. Had been thinking over the past, and thinking more frequently recently, would it be […]
