Artwork: New Series

On Friday, I started to feel much better. And yesterday, I started my new drawing.

This new series appeared on 1st June, when I went to PBAKL 2024.

Not so big, but still, a bit smaller from A1 size. This maybe will have 2, and various of sizes gonna come along while working on this. A1 size always a challenge to me. Since 2013 where I decided to get serious with visual art, I managed to finish 2 of A1.. There was another that would be the third, but got dirty while pending on my a1 wood board.. I feel bad.. But, I rolled it already and now saved, collecting dust yet another addition to my collection..

I usually not mention what I see in my mind, what picture come out of nowhere when new illustration in making.

For this series, thing clicked - when I was at the event. Meet and greet with authors, specially with those that I work together for their books. It was.. Fun.. But the inspiration? I think as recalled, more to the energy and the vibes of the people there. It all just flow.. Loud, fun, the excitement, which I hardly get.. But it was like, pulled me to blend with all of them. And I realised days after, that I allowed myself just be myself when in crowds. Not easy to be fairly clear.. But that was it. I allowed myself..

I met people that I can call friends and circle. Some that I had known for few years now, since 2021. Some in contact through DM and newly met that day.. Some just last year.. It's all beautiful. I like that.. Even right now, I'm home, back to my routine until after July, or even after that, I still feels whatever I feels that day.. It was cool too.

This one, well, take times. But I want to enjoy the process and progress that I'll be making with it. While working on small sizes of other series. Yes, I have many of series.. I hope I'll be able to finish them all, and give them all the spotlight they deserved.

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...

New!

I started blogging as long ago, But, here I am, again, with new page. I deleted my old one, but regret it now (haha). I shouldn't have deleted it. Instead, I just should have updated it!. Feel really bad now ugh. But too late.. So I'll be blogging same as in old one, but no artwork stuff related - I just wanna put out something that simple but uhmm not so simple, from writing side (haha). So, I hope I can keep up (!).

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...
