Here's our recent art exchange....rabbits! ^____^ According to her dad,she was really pleased with the outcome of her rabbit seeing as that is her first time attempting to draw an animal at an angle that's not on a profile.
My rabbit at top and hers below it...I like what she drew on the back page of the rabbit. Looks like an attempt at drawing a dog. Nice style there!
My very first drawing I've received from her. Really nice ain't it? I was so very touched by all her efforts and gesture.
Out of all the drawings she gave to me, this has got to be my most favourite piece. Thats suppose to be me and my dog. I liked the fact that she put a lot of effort into it, tho I can't remember owning that outfit plus that orange pantyhose. Haha! Classic! My poor dog apparently hasn't a backbone to him that his body sinks drastically while being tied torturously to the wall. And I like that she's a keen observer to details. Lookit the shadow effect from the lamp. Lovely ain't it? Truly an artist in the making. ^^
Her take on elephants. There's an elephant to both front and back of the page. Think I prefer the top one coz it has her as a little elephant there as well. Ain't it cute?
It wasn't too long before I realised that the way she'd identify me was by drawing a black dot to my lip area of the face. Looks like a mole there, but that's really my birth mark/scar. So yea,that's supposedly me,the big girl in the middle with her and her friends around me. Gotta love her attention to detail.
Every little piece of her artworks are now on display behind my desk on the office wall to color up my surroundings when I walk in each day. Lee-Ling,if you're reading this, thanx very much for all the lovely artworks. I'm very touched by each of the drawings you give to me and please do keep up the good work. ;)
The Creative Arts n Technology Conference 2006 held at Enterprise 4's Auditorium at Technology Park,Bukit Jalil recently on the 6th and 7th this month was both fun n exciting for me coz it means having another opportunity to rub shoulders with more animation lovers or animators, watch screenings of works and animation done by the local professionals and especially getting one of those rare chances of meeting up with old friends again. The icing on the cake was of course, a two part series of talk given by two reps from Studio Ghibli. Above pic showing some of my MnU friends having a blast in front of my digicam before the start of the conference.

Had a couple of awesome games of paintball not too long ago. Really worn me out eventually as the day drew to evening and there was a slight drizzle alter towards the fourth game I played. I should've known better than to play when my body was really really stressed and over exerted,but what the hey! It's paintball! Got hit a couple of times,but thank goodness there's no sign of bruising anywhere.


Also had to take my poor BimBim cat to the vet last Saturday (at top) coz she had a tooth problem. I didn't know it was her tooth that was giving her probs otherwise I would've taken her to the vet much much earlier and didn't have to scour all over PJ for an opened clinic. That day was Deepavali holiday and practically all the shops are closed save for a few restaurants and general stores. Well, it was a good thing we (me and Hoos. Thanx for bringing us there Hoos!)ended up at the emergency pet clinic at Subang,otherwise we wouldn't have met this lovely cat that was up for free adoption from the clinic. It was rescued from an accident that left it a bit slow in movement, but otherwise,an altogether lovely cat. If anyone's interested,please do let me know or u can contact the Healing Rooms veterinary clinic at 603-56376166 in Subang Jaya. The vet may not be able to keep it for much longer and may have to put it to sleep eventually. So please do help spread the word if you could,folks!
Aaaahhhh, a great discovery indeed here in PJ. A couple of classic NY bagles for breakfast last Sunday.
