<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So before I start, let me talk a little but the girl. A good friend pointed out that she looks like the grown up version of my <a href="http://painted-bee.blogspot.com.au/2013/12/flower-girls-and-ive-been.html" target="_blank">flower girls</a>, and that she looked a little unpleasant from all the dotting and the extra lines around her eyes. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">'Sun damaged', or if you want to go romantically, 'Sun kissed' is what I was going for with her. Lately, I've started to adore character designs with deep inset eye lines, and I've always thought freckles were nice on any kind of skin tone. You're not going to look like your teen days forever, might as well embrace all the wrinkles and sunspots! I think I lost that feel when I started colouring, but that was the intention I set as I started drawing her on paper :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With the colours, I wanted to go for- end of summer vibe, little lonely silhouette with atmospheric nature background. ....Like this song by </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KwfNuzYmnM" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Naotarō Moriyama</a><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">, except with more of the woodstock/indie feel. I like summer. But I love the end of summer~autumn feel. I'll stop the rambles and go on with how I created the image! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So first of all, set up your line art. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(I drew her in 0.05 copic multi-liner on 150gsm sketchbook paper. Original about 10x15.)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. I scanned her in at 300dpi, and got her cleaned up in Photoshop CS3. Although you could do this on pretty much any drawing software. Just make sure it has an ample amount of layer blending options! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Started with simple colour blocking and added bits of light and shadow. (Forgot to separate this step, whoops!) But you get the idea :) I kept it super simple since I was just experimenting. I tried to stick to a colour swatch, but didn't really work. But it's good to have an idea before you start colouring to get the overall mood and setting.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Texture time! I've overlayed a watercolour stock I've painted up for to get the hazy, dreamy look. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. She was looking a little washed out, so I added couple of colour layers and played around with the layer options, curve, and saturation. I still wasn't sure about the colour palette, so there was lots of subtle hue changes through out the process.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. This is a good trick for drawers of mystics and magical :P (If you haven't already known so of course!) You copy 4, and apply a gaussian blur, apply the amount of pixel blur you wish (about 3 for mine?) and set an appropriate layer option. It's annoyingly subtle, but every little subtleness adds up at the end I think. Added bonus if you can get each of the subtleness in the least amount of time!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On with the background!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. I really didn't like the top of her head, so I cropped the figure into a landscape frame. It would have been a better composition if I had shifted her more to the right (using the rule of third, should have shifted until her left eye was around into the 2/3 of the frame. Or alternatively, centre the dominant eye to the middle.) Added the background picture using the bg from <a href="http://rachelmayphotography.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/pilcher15.jpg" target="_blank">this photo</a> taken by the amazing photographer from <a href="http://rachelmayphotography.com.au/" target="_blank">Rachel May Photography</a> :) (The feel of the photo reminded me of 'end of the summer' feel, which was what I was going for from the start. Perfect.) Since it's already a bokeh background, I didn't worry too much about getting pixelated. I stretched it and added couple of textures on to it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Coloured in the shading for the girl. Since the light source is from the back, I gave the girl a light silhouette look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Adjusting the saturation and hue again. I wanted a muted matte look, but saturation seemed too high so I kept editing. Edited the background a little - desaturated, and adjusted the photo on the top right corner. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Comes the fun yet endless possibilities of Photoshop! Seriously, the stages from this step is all up to you and what you want to convey with the picture. Here I went for a dramatic look by colour grading, but I didn't think it suited what I wanted to do with it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. Desaturated a little. More colour grading.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. Merged 4&5 into one image. Added a layer of grey to the background, and brown to the whole picture. Also softened the lighting around the girl to a warmer colour. Finally finished! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I guess I could have gone further, but you need to stop somewhere otherwise you'll either go over board, or you'll never finish. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, that turned out to be much longer than I intended! Hope this helped anyone at all. I basically learnt 90% of everything I know from these tutorials, and will continuously learn from them. It would be nice to pay it forward by helping anyone who is looking into start digital colouring.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There was loads of trial and error between the steps. Like, it would have been 20 step by step explanatory guide if I didn't condense it. What I'm trying to say is that most of the stuff works through trial and error, especially if you're still exploring your style and technique. I think the main idea is just have fun and go with your gut feeling :)</span><br />

They're finally painted, scanned, and cleaned!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Actually they were done for a while, but I didn't get the chance to scan them in since I had guests from Japan over for about three weeks. So much fun discovering the local areas, but I didn't draw much all in that time. But all good, I just drew up enough line arts to keep me company for good couple of weeks haha.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I felt unnaturally calm and happy when I was drawing and painting the mice... I'm going to keep drawing them as side thing.</div>

Have you heard about the recent Greyhound racing investigation conducted by <a data-hovercard="/ajax/hovercard/page.php?id=151545438194544" href="https://www.facebook.com/animalliberationqld" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">Animal Liberation Queensland</a> and Animals Australia?</span></div>
<div>
<div class="text_exposed_root text_exposed" style="display: inline;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><br />Which side am I on?<br /><br /><br />Completely with the hounds and ALQ. I don't mind if I'm labelled as an animal/vegan nut (fyi I'm not vegan...but that's a whole different can of worms for another day.) No, I haven't been brought up in an environment where greyhound racing is more<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"> familiar to the community. I don't have first-hand contact with the trainers and other related people. And no, I haven't been able to physically help the campaign besides drawing little illustrations for ALQ.<br /><br /><br />But I do think it's completely unnecessary.<br /><br />Whatever side you're on, you can't justify the unethical treatments of the 'live baits'. Not to mention the thousands of euthanized dogs every year.<br /><br /><br />Read more of the investigation, and sign the petitions here:<br /><a href="http://www.greyhoundcruelty.com/" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"><span>http://</span><wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>www.GreyhoundCruelty.com/</a><br /><a href="https://www.change.org/p/senate-committee-stop-ag-gag-now" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank"><span>https://www.change.org/p/</span><wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span><span>senate-committee-stop-ag-ga</span><wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>g-now</a></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Oh hi. Its 2015 already?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Happy new year :P</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The top picture is just the gif version of the previous post. I truly love illustration. I love how you can set the entire story, and scene, and characters, and mood, and <i>everything</i> in just a picture. But I do love animation too. Being able to move the lines you've created from nothingness is pretty amazing. It also requires different set of skills from still drawings. Much more to learn.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I was in Japan for the past two months and a bit!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Will post about that a little later...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">---</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been reading a lot of psychological thrillers lately. Both novels and manga. One of the stories that struck me deeply was 'Nijigahara Holograph' by Inio Asano. (A random buy while waiting for the train when I was still in Japan. Best, buy, <i>ever.</i>) I had to read it at least 3 times to truly understand what on earth was going on, but boy oh boy. The story is set in two different chronological orders, which gets mingled and tangled up as the story progresses. Just describing in couple of words, the style is mesmerizing, the story is confusing, and content is plain disturbing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So obviously, I needed a break from the depressing/disturbing stories. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How do you get a break from it?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">...Draw little mice in fluffy winter wear. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yeah.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Also, I really don't know why I hadn't used gauche acrylics before. Because honestly, it truly is the ideal consistency I've been looking for. I guess the years of practise with acrylics, markers, pencils, and water colour really have helped my skills over the years...and I can appreciate the wonders of gauche only because I've found the lacking element in those said medium. One thing to note: the colours don't blend very well, so you need to get a paint tube of exact hue you're after.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ah, I don't know if that's funny or utterly sad. I've been active on my Facebook page and on Instagram... but you know, blog requires writing. And writing is one of my insecurities...</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Along with my arms and accent.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways. I'm going to keep on writing even though there is a 9 month gap, it's nice to look over the things you've posted when you were younger :P</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I actually haven't really drawn many 'full' illustrations this year. It's been more of a learning curve so far, and little commissions here and there. And been in so many new+uncomfortable setting, I've been little bit lost again haha. Rather than recapping what has happened, I'm just going to keep going with what's happening at the moment!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've been finally moving images, yay!! Haha okay scratch what I said on the top, I'm going to upload the older drawings little by little over this month.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This picture is a frame by frame shot of staggered action. Feel free to use this as a reference, although this is missing 4 more stills. I'm making the GIF right now, hopefully it'll be...some what smooth P:</span></div>

And I've been,<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Quite busy, and drawings rather a lot. I really want share it to the world, stuff it down everyone's throats (fufu)...but I don't want to annoy eveyone either P:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Everyone meaning people on Facebook or Instagram. Joys of social media.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So I'm back to the blogger again! I'm don't think theres much traffic on here these days, and even if there is, it doesn't bother me too much knowing that the people who'll read this probably won't know me in real life. Beauty of semi anonymous blogging ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Speaking of anonymous, man!! So I've been drawing under the name Yellowbee Illustrations... but as you know, I've been involved in couple of exhibitions... It's sligghtly bit embarassing when they introduce me as 'Yellowbee' instead of 'Bima from Yellowbee Illsutrations'. Yellowbee Illustration's my brand people, and Bima is the creator!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Anyways.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The flower girls! I actually finished this few days ago, but I'll post the progess shot of this before other projects :P</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">From the left! Rose, Sunflowers, Anemone, Peony, and Aster</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">No special meanings, I just like those flowers. :) And wanted to draw feminine, but smart/confident types of girls. I'll go into the feminist side in a different post, got a series done just for that actually!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">...Hoho, everyone was commenting on how the middle one looks like a goddess role in a fantasy RPG fighting games, so I've assigned a role for all the girls :P</span><br />

<br />
Now that few years have passed, I'm starting to see the pattern (finally admitting it...)<br />
<br />
It's not like I don't draw during the semester, I just feel guilty to show that I've been procrastinating. Specially this semester. Haha oh man, now that the results are out and I can actually say that I passed with high marks... that almost all my assignments were done in the last two days this semester. YA, I KNOW. There was so much more planning in my head (=stressin' out) than the action itself this semester. Seriously a bit of a time waster.<br />
<br />
(Might as well have blogged, but I would have felt horrible inside, and it's an endless cycle :P)<br />
<br />
Anyways, I did get up to few projects though :) I'll upload them little by little! But here is a little logo I made for myself while I was making Nikki's logo. Shall make it into a sticker, and stick on EEEVERythinggggggyellowbeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10778710928301488760noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9178409211881574087.post-91919556748491694242013-08-19T23:25:00.000-07:002013-08-19T23:25:08.527-07:00Lolita and Lenses<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's been little busy recently with private commission work and internship for the past month and a half :) (which is a blessing seeing that it's keeping me preoccupied...but starting to feel the strain a little ever since holidays finished - obviously so, but you know)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Not sure if I can upload the works I've been doing (really need to ask about that actually, do you guys put pictures up of your private/work related stuff on your blog? If so, did you ask your boss/client if its alright to do so first?) Or am I being too paranoid...? I just dont feel right with some media, specially the unpublished magazines :/ </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Just some process work. On the go with fluffy haired girls.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Actually, it was while doing this when a friend linked me to 'Bee and Puppycat' since apparently this reminded her of Bee's fluffy hair. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So I watched it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">And gulped. Daaamn, it looks pretty much like Bee!! (And whats more, it seriously looks like I've copied it!!! OHNO D:) I sincerely promise, I really didn't know of it until Bernadine introduced me to it! But man, the similarities in general is uncanny... feels like the producers of Bee and Puppycat must have been on the same wavelength as me... But I shall fangirl over Bee+Puppycat in the next post.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So my 21st bday has arrived and flew by like the winter wind...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jokes, the celebration was a bundle of warm fuzziness that lasted for a good two weeks or so. Because I'm such a b-day-celebrating person,(totally.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jokes (I'm hilarious,) only because my dear mother and sister went to Japan right after the actual day so the part was held two weeks afterwards, <i>which </i>worked out pretty alright since we were in the middle of the hell period with uni anyways.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
:)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">I won't go into details, but I really am blessed to have all of the amazing people in my life. Special thanks goes to my parents and Amaya for listening to me whine and stress over this entire thing (and for all the help too of course!), Rikako for helping with the decos, Laura for the amaze-ball cupcakes, Rach for flying all the way from Melbourne, Bini who landed 2hours ago from KL to Goldcoast and came by even just for a bit... and, I'm not being materliastic, but thank you all soso much for the thoughtful and lovely gifts. My group got me an iPad...dunno how they knew that I wanted one (fyi the only apple product I've ever wanted) and to the collective friends who all got together and got me copic pens. Seriously. </span>And lastly, the amazing staff at Sweet Delicious! I should have gotten a picture of the team, they did an amazing job on the night! Definitely a recommended hide-away Bistro/Cafe/Bar in the midst of Sunnybank Hills. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Well I thanked some people individually, but the fact that most of the people I invited showed up made me just tear up (inside, my you), just like the time from the art show. And for people to associate me on daily basis to be pretty frank. Who would have thought, that skinny ratty looking girl who couldn't speak a word of English from ten years ago would end up with such an amazing individuals. Curious to how everything turns out to be right? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Alright! Shall stop right here, and move on with the photos..and I've got lots of art/scribbles too :3 but thats for another time. This post is all about me and me!</div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">The Blog now has a new title!</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yeaheah. Because I really am right now. Well not really. Mix of wishful thinking and what I am right now. (Which makes no sense really.)</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I really need to get hold of my bearings, but the me being who I am...I don't think I'll feel 100% comfortable until I accomplish my 'next' tick box in my forever long to-do-list. And because this is me we're talking about, that's going to take fooooreva :P</span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well, I guess that's a good and a bad thing right? Forever exploring.</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways, I've got something new! Inspired by my friend Bernadine's little poem. I love the little scribble so much, so much imagery!</span><br />

<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She doesn't really agree with the interpretation, but this is my version. I know she wanted it to be more 'apocalyptic' feel to the picture, but I was in a good mood when I drew this. And just because something's crashing around you/finishing, doesn't mean it has to be horrible right? The part of you will stay with that memory, and a little part of you will rendition and grow into the new 'you'. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She also wrote couple more different ones which she thought would be more suited for this. I agree, aand disagree...I mean, I think I just like the original poem too much that I'm going to be stubborn on any other ones P: Here's one of them!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Finally got around to finishing her! The original was supposed to be more 'blue' and simpler...but well, this will do for now! This is also my first digital painting.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Poisonous thoughts running through me at the moment,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
and not making me feel very pretty, both inside and outside :/</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
(If only one could talk everything out. Or that one could come down from their high horse. And stop comparing yourself to make yourself feel better. OR put you down in front of other people/your friends, which fyi, is the worse thing I think you could do to a close friends. Seriously kids, don't be an adult like this one. Or the fact that just because you couldn't choose do be/do in your life, overwhelm me with jargons and make me feel insecure with my own choices. <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.25em;">Agh but </span>I need to stop worrying about other people/I need to refrain myself from taking it out on other people. <span style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.25em;">Get your shit together Carol</span>!!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">...Haha, well, that's my Gemini in me coming out full force ;) Oh the forever contradicting thoughts and actions~<br />

But seriously. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
Maybe I'm little bit on the edge since I have a design assignment due on Thursday, and I...kinda don't know what to do. I think I've lost confidence in design for a bit. But I need to do well, not just to prove to others but more so to prove to myself that I can be okay with architectural designing. (Please, please let the design me what I'm imagining in my head!!)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So IncStamp had another exhibition! (Yes, already passed the opening night,) to be 100% honest, I didnt really stick with the theme too much, more like I did a rendition/my own interpretation/just a litttle bit modernized version of a famous painting...<span style="font-size: x-small;">BEEECause, I honestly could not think of ANYTHing!! And man, when I'm busy, Im super busy to the point that I hardly got any decent amount of sleep for the past 3 weeks... man I'm going to age horribly :/ </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But anyways, lets start chronologically!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I got inspired to do this particular piece by Alphonse Mucha's 'Study of the Moon and the Stars' (you know how much I like glowing shizz and space/stars. Way too much.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My 'remixed' version is of 'Amanogawa', a Japanese word for Milky Way (and also <i>Prunus serrulata</i> - Japanese Cherry. The flowers looks like pompoms, so cute :3 But yeah, but the colour palatte decided after seeing these flowers/trees)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">...more description to come!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bit of WIPs :) This is actually pretty interesting since the watercolour stage and digital stage...is COMPleeetely different. I need to skill it up in watercolouring before I could even think of doing something like I did with the digital version!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> I was planning on making it simple, but then this happened so I ended up adding too much blue after this.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The line art was actually okay, very light and fluffy. But I think the look it has now goes more with the theme (ahaha or atleast thats my excuse :P)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I honestly should have read the 'about me' section of my own blog before answering any of the questions... :L My memory's apoling when Im under pressure or when I'm on the go/no proper sleep for couple of days.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Also, I got maself a Facebook page! (why? Because I dont have a proper place to refer people to when they ask for a site...I cant give them the blog link, or redbubble...so facebook it is :/)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I dont think I need a website yet anyways. What I do need is to draw some more stuff up though, just for fun/me :) Or go on another holiday/dissapear off into somewhere, that would be sweet.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I lied. I know what I need to do -asides from the critical review and the archi assignment, I need to draw something featuring Sri lanka. I've been meaning to do this forever and ever, but haven't been able to get around it yet. I'm may not seem very patriotic to the native Srilankans or the Srilankan born 'foreigners', but I'm do have a lot in me... You cant switch on and off something like this you know >( ...well this is topic is for another day! I have a rant about nationalism/internationalism I need to get it out</span></div>

This is the big one: <u>I'm a little confused on how I should explain the art/style/why I'm creating.</u> 99% of the times, it super personal. And I don't think I'm comfortable with people knowing some of the descriptions to the full extent. For an example, a lady was saying that with this particular drawing, the girl in it seemed peaceful and calm. (But really, it's more like the look of defeated after years and years of longing - I guess you could say 'peaceful', but only because she's trying to forget)</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">AKA "Third Culture Kids"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">D:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Have I been living under a rock or something, theres actually a term for this!? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="background-color: white; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"...A Third Culture Kid (TCK) is a person who has spent a significant part of [their] developmental years outside the parents' culture. The TCK frequently builds relationships to all of the cultures, while not having full ownership in any. Although elements from each culture may be assimilated into the TCK's life experience, the sense of belonging is in relationship to others of similar background."</span></span></blockquote>
<br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(totaly quoted Wiki just now, badass alert)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But anyways, yeah, I guess Australia would be filled with TCKids... but I think bringing another culture to the mix takes it to a whooole different level. No, I'm not being melodramatic or self-centric, nor do I think I'm more 'special' (in every level possible, I guess...) than the 'normal' or 'TCK'ids just because I got the 'third' mix... Its just little bit hard and lonely to culturally click on with other people. (This probs got to do with the fact that Imma down right introvert with weirdass-artfart-wanna be, but yeah, so this becomes more so of a problem.) </span><br />
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I mean, wouldn't it be super duper nice to have a chat with your average TCK, aaand bring on the third mix? O: Thats like I could be talking to SL/Aus kid about places and hometowns in SL, and suddently talk about the other home town in Japan. </span><span style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I guess I got a couple of Lankan friends who were born and brought up in Japan, now living somewhere else... but they literally live somewhere else :( A proper chat and fb chat is totes different!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">For instance...lets just say, for a Sri Lankan person coming to Australia, yeah that would be hard, culture shock, different accent, blahblahblah, but the SL community here is fairly large, and it would be super easy to get along with other students/families who just came from there. And same thing for Japanese. (Im only pulling these two up coz...theyre the closest to home and all.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now, how many of you have actually heard of... lets say, an Asian born and brought up in a African country, and then moved to a western country. As for me, how many of you have heard a Srilankan born and brought up in Japan, now living in Australia?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Its so awkward and bothersome to explain when I get asked the 'where are you from' question. Because, yes, by my looks, I'm 100% Sri Lankan. Not even going to deny that, and I don't want to deny that. And I guess I am pretty lankan when you look at my daily life basis stuff. Lot of 'native' Lankan has said Im pretty much like a Australian, but...heeck no, you just don't know me well then :/</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With the Australian side... yeah sure, I got a piece of paper and a passport to prove that I'm an 'Australian', but nothing beyond that defines the identification for me. Sure, I'm super westernised in the sense of mind set, but I can't really relate to the whole 'Australian culture'. (The whole 'true blue' and 'ANZAC' spirit. Mind you, I wholeheartedly respect both of said spirits, just doesn't feel like a part of it.) But I do know that my attitudes and beliefs got solidified, but will keep on changing, because I was able to spend my teenage years here. I guess in that sense I am a uber spoiled to the core, since I had that luxury to grow up in such a open minded culture. I got to meet so many different people from different countries, cultures, social and economical backgrounds... and going to MacG ovbiously played a huge role (: Also my 'rents! They are still very Srilankan, but very very...open minded? Probably because they lived in Japan for nearly 20 years before coming here, probably mellowed down the culture shock by gizillion time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So by looks, Im ovbiously Srilankan/Australian. I don't really care if people just passes me as that, but I can't help but say that I was 'born and brought up' in Japan when I get asked the whole 'where are you from' question. It feels like I'm trying to deny the fact that Im Srilankan though... But I'm not D: I'm just letting them know, because I will be little different from the native or TCK Srilankans. Its hard to present my self to a single culture person without sounding like 'I LOVE JAPAN' freak, because they don't understand the significance of actually been brought up in a totaly different culture. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To be frank, I didn't even realise I was a '</span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">foreigner</span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">' while I was in Japan. I knew I was 'Sri Lankan', but I only fully understood when I went to Australia and came back again. I didn't even know the term racism properly because I was deeply in the Japanese culture; I truly felt like a part of it. I obviously knew there were discriminations, but they happen on daily basis, and to anybody who looked or acted even a little different. And I know other foreigners in Japan got discriminated a lot... but I guess I never really thought it might have happened to me back then.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Btw, I seriously didn't get bullied while I was in Japan. People get surprised or they think I'm lying, but I honestly didn't get bullied. Im sure they were some light ones here and there... but I guess I was one happy kid :P And my friends were pretty kick ass, we would bully anybody who looked as me funny. (omg, thats sounds horrible now that I think about it!!) They still are :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Man, I'm not sure if I was a happy-go-lucky kid or...just a clueless idiot :L</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So...as I was saying, it is difficult to present myself as a single cultured person, because I know bits and pieces of three completely different cultures, yet most of my peers have not fully experienced any of one culture. Which technically means I have to 'act' around to accommodate to their cultural setting. Booyeah, which technically makes me a fake little...person. Im not btw!! </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I mean, I am still me in all three different cultures! </span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But I don't wanna scare people away or think I'm being uber arrogant. I just wanna fit in!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ooo there, I said it! But it is little sad that no one has really seen the real 'three cultured' me. Probs only my fambam and...couple of friends in Japan. I mean, I got heaps of close friends here as well, but they don't need to know that side kinda thing. They won't be able to relate to it anyways, so no point pushing them 'this side' of me :LL They'll probs tell me to quit the pointless deep thinking anyways lolol. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Okay, a shotty job since I just used my mouse to create different layers. Hopefully its much smoother than I my first trial though. I want the girl to seem like even opening her eyes are a bothersome thing for her. Hope you can get the feel of it through the gifs! The top and the bottom's sliiightly bit different (not just the framing!)</span></div>

These are the time when Im ubeer glad I got a phone with a keypad and a touch screen :) っんでもって日本語でもこれからブログできるし! So now I can...blog while Im on the go! Which is pretty sweet in my case since my bus rides usualy takes from 1~1.5hrs ish. (Usually just less than 1hr though.) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Am on my way to Community Centre atm, for homework help volunteering thing. I went last week for a little interview, so this is my proper first week. Eeeek!! It really is the hardest to take the first step, isn't it? D: I mean, it is hard once you get into the flow of things and 'trying to be the best you can' crap, but for me espeically, the first inital act scares me senseless.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Oh, Im talking about human interactions btw! Im good with going to new places, trying new things...but when I have to interact with a new group of people, I guess I got the butterflies rather than the excitement. The introvert in me's ready to dig a hole and hide in it forever kinda thing. And also, me being the unexpectly realisticly pessimist when Im all alone, I can never ever calm the nerves by myself. Thats why I sometimes have the burst of 'ineedtobearoundmafwends!!', just so I can get a grip on myself...aaand of course just to chill with the said friends :L</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But anyways<br />
Going under Clem 7 atm. Gee I really dont come to this side of the town at all :/</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">||</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Eyaaah just finished for today :) it was pretty good, I was helping out a lovely girl (from Thai! Preetty long hair and all. Not that it matters, but she was friendly and thats always helpful) with her scientific report. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On velocity something. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now I kinda got a confession to make... Ive never ever learnt physics at highschool :/ when they were introducing it at grade 9, I was conviniently not there since we had to go to japland... And I did natural science in grade 10 so never touched upon the world of physics...and forces..and velocity. Good thing I read random rubbish so I understood the task! (Well, the task wasn't hard but I really dont know much besides the basics...) But besides that, it was super sweet :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Even saw a pretty cat in front of a pretty blue done up Queenslander! And now im heading off to get some dinner with Beans x) </span><br />
