Gardening: A Few Days..

It's been awhile since last one..

I've been really busy, with my artworks and small project. As well as avoiding some that less needed in my daily basis. But go on, use it as needed and with limit. Yep, smartphone. Tough when you don't have computer or laptop anymore, as a result of battery life of it, or, damage inside it. Expensive, that's why, smartphone, for now..

I try to avoid it as much as I can, but use it when needed. So far, just okay. I use when I'm doing my artworks, leave it on desk when I'm doing my outdoor work, or small project. Which I'll be writing about it, if I want to..

For absence from here, blog and writing, I miss it. I miss this. With few photos within paragraph, in a post, I miss it. Never thought I would. So, to say that not only busy with new artworks, Alhamdulillah this year is the best one. Join few group shows, it's great experience. I got a chance to talk with new fellow artists, some stay and some not. Well, life. There's a reason why we bump with people in our lives, isn't it?

Other than that, I've been busy with paver work, which my outdoor work. I love paver, first of all. Though it's the tough process, which you have to arrange them one by one piece, it's the best and easiest way to go with "cement" look a like. Cement, to make a concrete, it's more than one or two process. As the result, I go with paver. Currently still lots to do. Still arrange it all, and I just can't wait to finish it.



And other things, while off from here, yes, as usual, movies!. I've been watching movies, some in cinema first release, and some on TV, premier, at least after a year a movie being released in cinema. And yea, as the result I've been thinking to share my thoughts or we call "review" of a movie, if I watch them. But I prefer more on it's as my opinion, and always in generally speaking about the movie. So, as talk about movies, I've been watching Mortal Engines, and for now almost 10 times!. I think I love the movie since I watched it last year it release. I'll write about it from my point of view, soon. This movie, seriously, make me want to get a dvd and the sequel to it, which is a novel. I read few pages as from Google. Well, I think I'll try to get one.

So, this is still long but I'll continue soon, as days with rain, evening become early night after heavy downpour. Cloudy, mostly now. Season of the year, most of time?. Okay, bye.

Book: Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK By Aqila Masri

I finally finished reading "Overthinking Tapi Buat-buat OK" by Aqila Masri (Overthinking But Acted OK) , published by IMAN Publication, last October. And let's see what my thoughts on this one. First of all, my view is just as from an artist, crafter and blogger, and as a reader... When this book published, to be honest I got caught by the title. I didn't plan on to get it like seriously, because I have this feeling to put aside what I can relate to the title. The word - "overthinking"... But as time past, I started to have the image of this book in mind, and it's repeating. So I feel it and said, "I need to have it" with wondering what the topics will be within. It was more like a calling from the book I could say. And early last month - September - I got it. First of all, the cover illustration - pretty. I love how the choice of the style from the artist. The work is beautiful. And give the visual to what's the book about. At the same tim...

Book: Asrama By Muhammad Fatrim

On January this year, FIXI emailed me for a commission. It took me few minutes to accept the offer. As the result, almost a week later I received their books together with one I got commissioned for last year - my first one from other author. I got 4 books in total, 3 of them by another author. I know, I need to read them 3, started with the first one, best selling ASRAMA by Muhammad Fatrim. And here I'm going to put some of my thought about it. For first, I'm honoured to be part of the book, for the new cover I got commission for last January, and thank you so much for the opportunity FIXI.  This was my most challenging one when come to illustrate for a cover. And while in process, I got little bit pressure than before. Since it needs to be 'girls' vibe and feel but dark. I did my best although a bit I feel like if I can deliver it much better.. But, so far, most fans and FIXI's family like it, I'm ok with that. Alhamdulillah.. The new cover on the right in red...

Book: Gelap By Ariff Adly

I got myself all 4 book - novels, by author Ariff Adly on 1st July last month for a reason. All his 4 is bestselling by the way. FIXI's call for illustrator for the author's new covers got my attention, in early morning and I was in my bed, I just woke up and a bit sleepy... I was in so-so thinking and situation where I was feeling like "should I?", "try je?", and sorts. I was in between and ended up emailed my portfolio. And then I started feeling it was a wrong move, like I just put myself in a rush situation and feel like I want to unsend it but of course, too late. Because of this, I feel the need to get all of Ariff Adly's books. Which, become most that I can put side by side with movies - yep, me, I'm a fans of movies - that I know and some just in a top of my list I could say. Tadaaaa yesss.. Since all 4 in my hand that day, I was just, "which one that I should start with?". Since it all Bestseller FIXI, it does give me this moment w...
