Other Things N Stuff

It's just my opinion first thing first. There's a lot I think about when come to this 2 types of art, in the field of art - visual art and writing art - both in the same field but different branches of art world. But same history of its beginning..? Drawing and writing I think have the same based - a line to a point to another. Just visual art creation becoming a picture or illustration where anyone who's looking can feel and see clear pictures, a not in words of imagination. While writing (art) started with creation of alphabets - is without of it (picture), offering some people or reader to feel but can't see. Else, both too have the same based, inspired by reality. I've been blogging for more than before I set myself in visual art scene, which almost 10 years, before stepping down from it. And decided to learn the writing-reading-book field. Then after a year and few months I realise things between these 2 fields, and caught me up to write about it. Not a compari

Midnight. Midnight, always give me a sense of deep connection with my feelings. Like.. Put this in words is something I have a hard time to do. Seriously, it's hard still but someone ever said on Twitter "writing is to be honest with self". Like I ever said, "be honest with what you want to do" - my answer for an art platform question. Midnight where my thoughts grow. Maybe it's because I have things to do and deal in the morning. Else than things at home, gardening or landscaping if it's sunny day, do my handmade stuff or drawing, playing with my indoor plants (oh I still not put out why I started having them), or cooking. Past 12am where actually it is, usually give my mind some space to absorb all in the day without put my mind on heavy levels, these days.. It's much more lighter now. But maybe because midnight where I'm at just quiet, not much of sound from TV, where usually I'll turn it down a bit. Obviously because my parents sleeping..

After done with UNBOX, I decided to continue with MEREKA by same author. And I like more when come to it's cover artwork. Which a digital art. Bestselling too, MEREKA actually very unexpected for me and for most, it has something much darker compared to 2 other before. I read this on 3rd week of July. As usual, before I put my thoughts on this, I'm a visual artist-illustrator, crafter, a blogger, and all just my thoughts as a reader.. So.. Excuse my broken English or whatever I'm trying to put in words in here... MEREKA as in English, "them", in my view from the story plot, it should be "them". This one open not too slow and not too fast. The opening just as in reality of real life friendship, joking around, and life talking but with creepy things going on as usual, Ariff Adly... At first, this one makes me feel like this will be in reality without confusion and straightforward like that... I was wrong... In fact it somehow, put me in a place where I hav

More than one month I've been noticing that I caught up with self-improvement books. Or books that tells how to deal with people while improving oneself. My attention to these books too, makes me realise how much I'm into biography genre, or books that author tells their story in honesty and the truth about who or how they are in life. Or what they've been dealing with as a human.. It's, somehow, make me feel connected.. As I said. My current reading is "Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK" ( Overthinking But Acted OK ) by Aqilah Masri. Maybe like 3, 4 days now.. And yesterday, since it's almost 5am writing this, I went to a mall with lil sis. To which while eating for breakfast (although it was almost 1pm at the time), I saw Popular Bookstore. After had our breakfast, we both went to it. My aim really on books from IMAN Publication - to which I don't know why - but in mind just full with "self care and self connect with whatever (self's body and m

Few months past already, and I realised I started to slow down with my books. All from last year and this year. It's because I'm currently focusing more on my handmade accessories and boothing around KL. But still, I got myself couple of books recently and I started to notice, that there's books on pending - meaning, I already read but few pages only - and planning on to finish them all one by one. But I too noticed my taste on genres when come to this... My latest book and currently reading, "Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK" ( Overthinking But Acted OK ) by Aqilah Masri, published by IMAN Publication - caught me up. But more, this book did make me feel like I've been called to it before I got it.. Else than this, my second last reading which is a novel, is KACAU (Disturb) by Ariff Adly, published by FIXI. And the list is ongoing for this year:- 1. AWAN by Syafiq Aizat, FIXI (Malaysia) 2. GHAIB by Uja Hamza, FIXI (Malaysia) 3. Menjadi Dewasa by Prasanti Widyasi

So... Last night I had this random thing in my mind, to write in my own mother tongue language.. I just feel like it and would like to see how it will be. So I'm picking up thoughts from my mind and here I go, about my artwork and my blog writing. Pengalaman aku berkecimpung dalam dunia seni dan kraftangan, sebenarnya bermula dari kecil, seawal aku di bangku tadika. Dimana kebanyakan masa aku atau pada masa lapang, aku lebih cenderung mencari dan mengambil kertas dan pensil. Melukis menjadi salah satu perkara yang aku akan lakukan dengan perasaan suka. Dalam tempoh ini, aku hanya kenal seni dengan melukis, yang menggunakan pensil dan kertas. Kebanyakan lukisan aku hanya sekadar apa yang ada dalam kepala aku sebagai seorang kanak-kanak. Aku hanya ingin melukis lebih dari meletakkan fokus aku pada subjek yang lain, dan subjek lain yang aku tertarik juga adalah Bahasa Inggeris. Tapi aku dapat rasa melukis, atau subjek Seni ini yang paling banyak aku letak fokus serta tenaga dalam temp
