Drawings and lilies

Color studies with w-colors... couple of them is a disaster... but not without any satisfaction.
I must admit this is easier than it looks...
The florist said it will last about 10 days plus... but in this kinda room temp... probably last only 7-8.

pic below... blossomed lily...

why not?

bought some yellow lilies... its spring.
...and did some cleaning while i'm at it. As pointed out by Wiggs... (he's cool)
That's all folks!

2nd -24th September
As part of the St Margarets Design & Architecture Festival Supermodel is a rare show case of collection of models from Sydney based Architects + student models.

And check out the Bombay Sapphire Design Awards too... upstairs of the Object Gallery ... and the Manga Pod by Atelier Bow Wow...downstairs of the OG.

Miserable weather continues thru the weekends... the rain and wind... best weather to snuggle up with somebody under the doona and not get out of bed til noon but since I got nobody to suggle up with its just torture... straight torture...
Boredom got the better of me and I just had to get out of the house (theres only so much you can read about 'diagrams' in one day) so off to the supermarket I went. At the risk of sounding like a loser... I quite like trips to the supermaret anyway ... cut to the chase I got myself lotsa yummys for my tummy HAHAHA! spam...kitkat cookie dough flav...oreo wafersticks (not so great)... tic tacs...tuna...sugus... jap mayo... check it ppl.

Folded

Ben Folds X Sydney Symphony at the Opera House...
Elaborately rearranged... both new and classics... re-presented the post-modern piano man's work with a layer of theatricality and bitterness. (hmm sounds right to me ????). Its hard not to be moved by his honesty and sense of reality...couldn't shake this heavey feeling though I tried... something was missing...the wind and the torrential rain...and whats this about Ben not cussing on the mic tonight?

...and one super cute tour tee...take a look.



While we're on music... John Mayer's new album 'Continuum' is probably the best thing I've heard this year... one word... soulful. He is all soul baby! He does what you do with a pen and words with his guitar. If you have yet to hear it ... go give it a try... I know you guys will somehow get your hands on it legally or illegally, whatever, just shut up and listen.

(Ever get that one song that pierce right through you?)

Before I forget, thanks for all the entries for the contest... it will close on sunday... I'll have the result for you guys soon after.

oh and season 3 of House started...

wk ?

Here are some experiments with watercolor from illustration the past Tuesday... it was a total disaster!!! They were practices for washes (from light to dark etc)... I was really struggling with it ... soon gave up and got bored... then sketched over it.
Gonna be a big week for design... more on that later.
Probably a good thing I got fired.

Enjoy.

OST to Spring

I never did finish writing that song... well, its missing lyrics. Maybe I can finally finish it.
I walked into a cafe near my local library ...where soccer moms schoolgirls congregated and gossiped over tea and cakes. I ordered and waited. It was Katrina & the Waves "Walking On Sunshine" playing on the radio... (wheres my coffee?) .. It was Extreme's "More Than Words" next... I walked out with my coffee in one hand and chuckled. I put my earphones back on and drifted away between my ears. It was Joe Cocker playing... unmistakable electric piano intro... "Feelin' Alright". I chuckled.

That was the soundtrack to 6 minutes 18 seconds of my first day of Spring, my first day of September 2006.

What was playing on yours?
