You don't need money to be happy, you need art!

In this post, I will depict several artworks that I made. It may seem a little trashy and a little amateur-esque at times but mind you, art is not a matter of mastery, it is a matter of passion and love. No matter how crap your artwork may look like, but if it shows your true feelings and created by heart, it's no more what your brain says as crap, it's your masterpiece at its best.

This is my first ever "real" painting, which is titled as "Solitude", it shows a women who bears two different scenes, which are green lush trees and black cobbled buildings under a gloomy sky in the other.

This one is actually the bulletin board I have in my room, it shows my artworks. There's my name tag I made and featured on a post previously, my photographs, and a graphic art I hand-drawn.

Below is my hand-drawn graphic art. The theme of drawing that I made here is about capturing moments and photography. The media is hand markers (general colored- snowman markers) and a creative mind. That's all you need, folks!

So that's some of the artwork I made. I hope it looks great and I can continue to create new pieces of art and keep posting on here.

l'époque de ma vie

I've always been insecure about myself and always thought negatively about how I appear, about how people think about me, and other irrelevant stuffs.

But between those times I've always tried to remember the moments when I was a kid, the times when I was happy, free-spirited, and living life not to impress.

This is a newborn me

Me, aunt, cousin, in my most fashionable attire to date haha

Me, my late grandfather (creyz*), me cousin, and me fabulous grandma. Wondered why I have the most extravagant outfit in family photos lol. 

Last but not least, me in a family picture, in my mum's lap wearing a dandy hawaiian shirt and a black pant. I got my style since the 90s. That's where I get my legitimate fashion narcissism and compulsive consiousness right now I guess.

Cherish the moments with your loved ones before they got away. Fill your days with laughter and never forget that without them, you're nothing.

All the pictures above are scanned pictures. Credit goes to me.

New Year Trip : Everything Comes NATURALly!

My family and I currently went to Cirebon, a nearby town by road-trip, by car, and had loads of fun there! We took a lot of crazy photos. Had a lot of fun moments to wrap up the year with:)

On the Royal Palace, fixing hats and accessorizing between trips:) Just found out that the entire palace has this mystical feel and freaked out when mom's camera turned off in a sudden, and instantly on again when we stepped out one of the buildings. * Gasps!*

Quality time with my sister! I can't really imagine me swallowing her enormous head! Haha and yes the pictures are great, Mom!

At the Linggarjati museum, a little smudge of history isn't a sin right? I also need to refresh my mind on my History class, school starts in 1 Week! *sighs*

I'm wearing:

Gap fisherman hat, unbranded sweater top, Urban Pipeline creme khaki shorts, Nevada rubber docksides

Photo credit goes to Mum. Editing credit goes to me.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2K12 EVERYONE! All the best for us!

i'm a gypsy, are you coming with me?

Currently i'm in love with all these gypsy/boho stuffs I found at home so I decided to take pictures of it yay.  

Stuffs from the last two pictures : Patterned tribal oversized blouse (top), my I love Horror doll (a gift from a friend - Thailand *yay*), chinese porcelain cup on top of the doll and filled with beads, colorful pencil-case from Thailand, Mexican pattern pants and shawl (as the base), and my hand-drawn name tag! *proud* *drumrolls* *applauses*

I've always been inspired by the whole-hearted and free-spirited attitude of gypsies and their immense appreciation to arts and nature.

Plaid shirt - secondhand, Fisherman hat - Old gap, Jansport bag, Colorful checkered pants - thrifted

All pictures above are taken by me.
